Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Just one day, that's all I need
Just a day without her nagging
Just one day, I beg, I plead
But the drag just keeps on dragging
While I wish for just one Monday or Friday to be free
Free to slouch and sulk and mumble and be messy and be me
All I ask is for 12 hours
To live my life my way
Just one simple, awesome, crazy, epic day
[Verse 2]
Just one day is all I want
With my family united
Fears at bay, no bites, no taunts
Just the four of us, delighted
I mean, look, I love my kids, I love my work, I love my life
And I love my fiancé, and in a day, I'll be his wife
And I'll throw the perfect wedding and I'll throw the bride's bouquet
And we'll have one happy, loving family day
[Verse 3]
Tomorrow is the wedding, and tonight is the rehearsal
And there is no room for error, I mean not one flaw
We've got guests and just ten hours
Dress the tables, trim the flowers
I want beauty and perfection
I want total awe
And remember that reporter, 'cause it's crucial that we court her
The business is depending on this one success
Now, breathe, but thank you, Tori
And, in fact, that is the story
So get moving, move this produce
And remove this mess
[Verse 4]
One more day, she's on my back
She's been riding me forever
All my faults and all I lack
And all I -- oh, whatever
'Cause I'm lazy and I'm average and I'm sloppy, for a start
And I know she'd like a daughter who was pretty neat and smart
And I know the woman's perfect, but I'll never be that way
Not for a single, solitary day
[Verse 5]
One more day, she'll fight and fuss
When her joy is all I'm after
It's been a long, tough time for us
Now, it's time to hear some laughter
'Cause I only want her happy and, well, punctual and clean
But she mumbles and she grumbles, and at times, she's outright mean
She's bright and so insightful, but those traits aren't on display
Well, not lately
Often, ever
Not today
[Verse 6]
Ellie, dear, it's not the time
No, that apron is a crime
And that sea bass isn't fresh
It's three days dead
[Verse 7]
Mom, I really need to know if I can, wait, now where'd she go?
Ugh! I'll never draw her focus
From the bread
[Verse 8]
It's a million little things
From the racing to the rings
But I got this
'Cause I love to work this way
[Verse 9]
Mom, it's just a little game
Just a silly little game
And I wouldn't even play
[Verse 10]
What a day
What a day
Okay
It's okay
It's okay
[Verse 11]
Just one day, that's all we get
Til the vows, the hunt, the story
Just one day, sunrise, sunset
Then the night in all its glory
[Verse 12]
Just say the word and we'll be on our way
We're on our way
For one
Stressful
Perfect
Busy
Winning
Stellar
Anxious
High stakes
Epic
Do or die
Crazy day
