Lyrics
Grandpa, I’m running away
I’m having a very bad day!
The dog chewed my sneakers and Mom yelled at me,
And Daddy said I can’t watch TV!
It’s been a bad day, a bad day!
Everything’s going wrong!
I didn’t mean to get mud on the chair,
Or drop my marbles down the stairs,
I said I was sorry!
It’s not fair!
It’s been a bad, bad day.
Grandpa let’s go for a walk.
And then we could sit down and talk.
I’ll tell you what happened when I spilled my drink,
On Mom’s new blouse, that used to be pink!
It’s been a bad day, a bad day!
Nothing I do is right!
I’m tired of staying all day in my room,
Sitting and sulking alone in the gloom,
Oh Grandpa, please hurry and
Get here soon!
It’s been a bad, bad day!
It’s been a bad, bad day!
