Had it with Today Lyrics Analysis

Woke up this morning, feeling bad
Almost forgot what day I had
And there was something not quite right
Cos' everything was so against me I had no power to fight
And I was all alone, ohhh



Looking at this first section, it seems like the song has a negative theme which contradicts the tempo of the song. 
In our music video, we will show the performers getting into the car and setting off, with just the driver singing along to the words.


I've had it with today
Wish it were yesterday
I can't wait for tomorrow
It's just one of those days
When nothing goes my way
At least I know it will past and elaspe



After looking at the chorus, you can see that the song builds on from the negativity of the first verse, but adds that there a positive end to everything despite what situation you are in.
For the chorus, we will have all the girls singing together. Because of the recurrence of the chorus, we will have the girls singing in the different locations of the video.


I've fallen sick and cannot smile
I'm hardening up inside (ooohhh)
Even the weather shows my pain (shows my pain)
If life were like this constantly I think I'd surely go insane
The pitch feeds my pain
To my veins, ohhh



In this verse, there is a lot of physical references to show that the pain is physical as well as emotional. The use of "sick", "cannot smile" "pain" and "insane" all shows the extent of the problems.
Like the first verse, we will have a sole singer rather than the whole group. this is done to emphasize the personal feelings of the lyrics whereas the chorus is more like a group feeling.


Oohh
If there were no lows, there'd be no highs
I'm glad now I've realised this low can only go
Higher and higher...



At this point of the song, there is a positive look on things, with the lyrics showing that things can always get better.
Again for this section, we will have another individual singer which will represent giving hope to a group.


I've had it with today
Ohh-ohh, I've had it
It's just one of those days
Just one of those days, ohh-ohhh
I wish it were tomorrow



This section is similar to the chorus, but because of the differences, will be sung by the final singer.
In this part, is re-emphasizing the troubles that they have but by saying "I wish i were tomorrow" shows that she has understood what has been said and is looking forward to the bad times to improve.


Had it with today, had it with today
Oh-oh-whoa-oh



To represent the end of the song, the final two lines will be sung by the driver who started the song. This shows that the song has done a full circle and that the group are in a better position than when they started. This will also  be shown from the car journey, as they will leave somewhere like an ordinary car park and will finish at a nice location.
Throughout the video will be a variety of locations, this will show how much of an impact the problems have on all aspects of their lives.
