"Thursday" comes from Cure for Pain, the second Morphine album, which Rykodisc put out in September 1993, and Mark Sandman wrote it on his own, words and music. Paul Q. Kolderie produced, recorded and mixed it, and Dana Colley chips in backing vocals.
The sessions were not smooth ones. The band's original drummer, Jerome Deupree, quit partway through the recording because of health problems, and Billy Conway came in to take his place; Conway is credited with additional drums on this track.
