Trivia
- The breakdown has Rob making a chicken sound
- Tally Hall recorded a special version of Good Day in the fictional "Simlish" language for the Sims 2: Apartment Life expansion pack[3]
- For a tie-in promotion with Burger King and iMeem, people were allowed to remix Good Day with the original stems. These stems were mostly lost for years (with the exception of some vocal stems thanks to Coz Baldwin) until late 2021 when the rest were found in The "Another Minute" gigaleak, a private Tally Hall collection.
- In the music video for Good Day, you can see home movie clips of presumably each member when they were younger
Lyrics
I'd like to say hello and welcome you good day that is my name Come here and sit down I'm so glad you even really truly came We can even go and take a walk or something like that or something like that But first I need to introduce my what and introduce my when Let us sing Its name I like to call it likes to say it's nothing (it's nothing) It lives and breathes and it insists that it insists that it is something (it's something) It never liked to speak or run or walk or sleep or eat It even thought that everybody tried to thought to take its seat Looking through glass eyes Give it a few tries Nothing goes right in its time Kill all its bad dreams Wonder 'bout no things Circles and spirals in mind But we know that this song is not about a no or yes or why What's really truly what I say is that about a little sigh So come along I think I'm done I think we're done yes this is done What's truly that I think about it and it thinks about a ton Let us sing Looking through glass eyes Give it a few tries Nothing goes right in its time Kill all its bad dreams Wonder 'bout no things Circles and spirals in mind I thought you knew I knew but Why and by and Why and by and by I wanted you to know I thought you knew but Why and by and why Let us sing, let us sing Let us sing, let us sing Let us sing, let us sing Let us sing, let us sing Birds and bees and television (let us sing, let us sing) Cardboard houses, x-ray vision (let us sing, let us sing) Many little silly rhymes (let us sing, let us sing) Things forgotten lost their time (let us sing, let us sing) Telephones and silly games (let us sing, let us sing) Periods and lots of question marks (let us sing)
