Beautiful Day Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Every day is more bad news
Mass shootin' at the supermarket
Cops killed another black dude
All over the planet there's kids who are starvin'
Every day is worse, tryna make it work
Try to smile a bit and watch the world burn
Boss is such a jerk, daughter learned to twerk
Just another day on a planet called Earth
There's fake news on every single station
Cardi B's everywhere practically naked
President's lying addrеssin' the nation
And smellin' our children likе cookies we're bakin'
People are dyin', they can't afford water
And we are not helpin', we don't even bother
We focus on money and first-world problems
Like gender roles, man, this is awesome

[Chorus]
It's a beautiful day if you don't go outside
If you don't watch the news, if you don't go online
It's a beautiful day, how are you? You're fine
If you don't watch the news and pretend that you're blind
It's a beautiful day

[Verse 2]
Every day's a new crisis
First it was slavery, then it was ISIS
Then it was Trump and a virus and riots
And now our worst enemy's fighting the whiteness
Every day's the same, everyone is lame
Every time we see the sun it starts to rain
Try to make a change but it stays the same
Make it a meme and we laugh at the pain
The economy plummeted
They blame the Republicans
As long as we fight with each other
We'll never defeat what we're up against
We scream and we shout
And we burn it all down to the ground into nothingness
Then the cycle restarts
And we're all fucked again
[Chorus]
It's a beautiful day if you don't go outside
If you don't watch the news, if you don't go online
It's a beautiful day, how are you? You're fine
If you don't watch the news and pretend that you're blind
It's a beautiful day

[Bridge]
I can't keep up with the news or the paper
I don't care if they burn it down
I'll make sure that every day is a vacation
I'll pretend that I don't see the clouds

[Chorus]
It's a beautiful day if you don't go outside
If you don't watch the news, if you don't go online
It's a beautiful day, how are you? You're fine
If you don't watch the news and pretend that you're blind
It's a beautiful day if you don't go outside
If you don't watch the news, if you don't go online
It's a beautiful day, how are you? You're fine
If you don't watch the news and pretend that you're blind
It's a beautiful day
