I had always thought the word was "date". However since I read the lyrics here, the word "day" seems to fit better. I have not seen it in awhile so I may be mistaken but when the singer sings the line, "who can take a nothing day...", I think on the screen Mary is walking with a group of children. Like a girl scout troup or some kind of group. If the line said "date" then I think it would have shown Mary walking with a man wearing a suit. (Mary would have only dated a high-class executive type.)
