Frank Black and Frank Black and the Catholics - Horrible Day

Well, I took a little somethin'
To make my worries go away
I laid down with a movie
And I started to feel okay

But I heard the doorbell ringin'
And I opened up to see
My worries they were
Waiting there for me

Now death, as you'd expect
He was all dressed up in black
Misfortune in her stockings
And a curve upon her back

And the chorus of the lonely
In their gospel robes, of course
They were singing
?Bout my imminent divorce

It?s a beautiful day
No, it?s a horrible day
Maybe I will grin but I won't bear

It?s a beautiful day
No, it?s a horrible day
And for the first time in my life I just don't care

Yeah, it?s a beautiful day
No, it?s a horrible day
Maybe I will grin but I won't bear

It?s a beautiful day
No, it?s a horrible day
And for the first time in my life I just don't care

So let me get my coat
And let me get my stash
I?ll trade my VCR
For a pocketful of cash

I?ll take off with my worries
And I?ll even let death drive
We're sure to get there
Dead or alive

Yeah, it?s a beautiful day
No, it?s a horrible day
You can see here by my grin, I don't give a fuck

It?s a beautiful day
No, it?s a horrible day
And for the first time in my life, I don't need the luck

So the first time in my life, I don't need the luck
So the first time in my life
