This song is basically Billy's "joke" about how he wants to kill himself. Sardonically saying 'this is the greatest day of my life because from now on, things are so bad that they can't get any worse'. It's rather nihilistic, in a way. Anyone else agree?
If things are so bad that they literally can't get worse, that would be the worst day, by definition.

I think it's the greatest day cos he's feeling happy, free, and light-hearted, because he's going to kill himself later on today, so he hasn't got any worries. Must be a nice relief.
