The Kinks - Good Day (Extended Version) Lyrics

The sky is blue but there are clouds in my head
With big decisions looming ahead
The sun is out but the room is so gray
So much confusion headed my way
Get positive, try to be gay

News of the world, tea and biscuits in bed
The headlines said that 'Diana is dead'
She couldn't act much but she put on a show
She always smiled even when she felt low
I used to fancy her a long time ago

So today has got to be a good day
Today is gonna be a good day
Today is gonna be a good day
Good day, good day, good day

Holes in my socks and I can't find my shoes
It's no surprise that I'm singing the blues
So many holes in my life still to mend
And someone just said that the world's gonna end

So today better be a good day
Today is gonna be a good day
Today is got to be a good day
Good day, good day, good day, good day

If we blow away the past with a bloody great blast
Make it fast, make it fast
So have a good day today because it could be your last
Make it last, make it last

Will it light up the sky?
Will it blot out the sun?
Well we've waited this long
So it better be a good one

Good day, good day, good day
Yeah, it's gonna be a good day

Hey baby, if you come back home
You know it'll be a good day today
They could drop a small atom bomb on the city today
But if you walk through that door honey
You know it'll be a good day

And now survival is my only aim
I call friends and see if any remain
Who was that girl who used to be my flame?
I'd call her if I could remember her name

So today is gonna be a good day
Today has got to be a good day
Today is gonna be a good day
Good day, good day, good day, good day

Hey Diana, I've really got to learn
To take a tip from you
Put on my makeup and try to
Make the world take notice of you

Yeah, it's gonna be good day today
Good day, gonna be a good day
Good day, gonna be a good day
Good day, got be a good day
It's gonna be good day today
