In my mind it is backwards and obviously people can disagree because maybe it just comes down to interpretation rather than it being "wrong".
The way I see it is that it being "your" year is the best, your month next, then your week and if nothing else then at least it's been your day. Whereas the song seems to imply that having a good day is better than having a good year, if you see what I mean. Which it isn't! I see what they're trying to say and can relate to the sentiment, but still in my mind it is the wrong way around.
So to my mind the right way to express the thought is "It hasn't been your year, your month, your week or even your day", which like I said in my last post wouldn't fit so obviously they'd never have had it that way.
(I may have explained that really badly but I hope it makes sense!)
To be honest that's mostly down to me over analysing a silly theme song, but hey, over analysing things is how this thread has gone on for so long!
Edit - it has occurred to me while writing that you can have a good year overall without having many good days, it could come down to one good day which made it "your" year so perhaps thinking about it like that makes more sense than the way I interpret it and maybe that's what is meant by it. I've also now realised just how much thought I've put into this post - a valid form of procrastination I think!
