I'm black and bloody from my life.
I haven't time to clean my hands,
Cuts will only sting me through my dreams.
In a semi-conscious state.
I dream of people fighting me
Without any reason I can see.
My arms, my legs, my body aches.
The sky outside is wet and grey,
So begins another weary day.
People passing by me shout.
I can't stand this agony.
Why don't they talk to me?
I lie down and I do my best.
The rain is falling on my face,
I wish I could sink without a trace.
My arms, my legs, my body aches.
The sky outside is wet and grey,
So begins another weary day.
I lie down and I do my best.
The rain is falling on my face,
I wish I could sink without a trace.
My arms, my legs, my body aches.
The sky outside is wet and grey,
So begins another weary day.
So begins another weary day.

The English Way of Life
You drink all weekend to forget you've worked all week.
You worked all week because you've got to pay for what you and your mates drink.
Americans: they eat fast food all week hoping they won't be caught in a gunfight next weekend.
Canadians: we watch hockey games during the week then we all go seal-hunting on weekends.

I love this song so much.
These Madness guys, all of 'em, you can't help falling in love when you watch their old clips. I mean, even I, a lass, can appreciate their sound without pictures. But it's too late for me now. I'm madly in love with 20-years-old Bedders.
I'll have to find some look-alike to die a happy girl.

I know the meaning of this song is quite clear to anyone, but 0 comment in how many years??? Grey Day made UK's Top 10, might be in the top 5?

Actually, it went to #4.

Do I always end up talking about the song's video? Yes, I do. Well, in that one Suggs' in bed and cannot sleep, Chas has a mad clown painted face and they're having a gig in a shop window.
The best clips on YouTube are the one with the original 30 seconds comic intro. All their first clips have one. Grey Day's not the best, only three of the boys seems naked in bed and show us signs with the song's title.

I laughed the first time I saw that intro showing someone leaving a b&b, suddenly Barson pops out of nowhere and says: Woo, tha was the Bed and Breakfast Man!
Baggy Trousers' intro is so nutts I let you see for yourself.
Suggs plays a car salesman in Shut Up.
Chris, or maybe Lee makes a warning speech to kids viewers telling them not to plug electric guitar prior to play in a pool such as in "It Must Be Love".

Actually it's Chris Foreman who pops up and sez whoa that was the bed and breakfast man

So begins another weary day, so begins another weary day .... like hammerblows to the soul.

I always thought the song is about a homeless man

Could of been me:(
