Just One Day

[00:03.07] Just one day, that's all I need
[00:05.63] Just a day without her nagging
[00:09.04] Just one day, I beg, I plead
[00:11.33] But the drag just keeps on dragging
[00:14.38] While I wish for just one Monday or a Friday to be free
[00:17.66] Free to slouch and sulk and mumble and be messy and be me
[00:20.40] All I ask is for twelve hours
[00:22.35] To live my life my way
[00:26.50] Just one simple, awesome, crazy, kickass day
[00:35.98] One more day, she's on my back
[00:38.99] She's been riding me forever
[00:42.39] On my faults and all I lack
[00:45.30] And all I, oh whatever
[00:48.24] 'Cause I'm lazy and I'm average and I'm sloppy for a start
[00:51.38] And I know she'd like a daughter who was pretty, thin and smart
[00:54.36] And I know she's frickin' perfect, but I'll never be that way
[00:59.67] Not for a single, solitary day
[01:06.91] Tomorrow is the wedding and tonight is the rehearsal
[01:10.04] And there is no room for error, I mean not one flaw
[01:13.03] We've got guests in just ten hours, dress the tables, trim the flowers
[01:16.48] I want beauty and perfection, I want total awe
[01:19.62] And with 'Weddings Magazine' here, for a feature on the scene here
[01:23.05] The business is depending on this one success
[01:26.78] Now breathe, but thank you, Torrey
[01:28.04] And in fact, that is the story
[01:29.79] So get moving, move this produce and remove this mess
[01:35.65] Just one day is all I want
[01:38.47] With my family united
[01:42.02] Fears at bay, no fights, no taunts
[01:44.78] Just the four of us delighted
[01:47.77] I mean, look, I love my kids, I love my work, I love my life
[01:51.09] And I love my fiancé and in a day, I'll be his wife
[01:54.02] And I'll throw the perfect wedding and I'll throw the bride's bouquet
[01:59.40] And we'll have one happy, loving, family day
[02:05.42] Mother, Fletcher is puppeting me again!
[02:09.79] One more day, she'll fight and fuss
[02:12.47] When her joy is all I'm after
[02:15.43] It's been a long, tough time for us
[02:18.44] Now it's time to hear some laughter
[02:21.86] 'Cause I only want her happy and well, punctual and clean
[02:24.71] But she mumbles and she grumbles, and at times, she's outright mean
[02:27.72] She's bright and so insightful but those traits aren't on display
[02:33.14] Well, not lately, often, ever, not today
[02:38.91] Ok, really fast, tonight is The Hunt
[02:41.24] It's an epic scavenger hunt and I really wanna win
[02:45.23] There's just one issue
[02:46.68] Just one day, that's all I seek
[02:49.22] And I have been asking nicely
[02:52.63] Just one day, it's not a week
[02:55.53] It's a night, to speak precisely
[02:58.63] And The Hunt is not a stunt, it's my one shot at fame
[03:01.32] To be someone who is something, not just what's-her-name
[03:04.65] If I'm in it, I can win it, if she'd only say ok
[03:10.69] We'd be off and running gunning for one fun and perfect day
[03:17.00] Mom? Mom? Mom?!
[03:22.09] Ellie, dear, it's not the time
[03:23.08] No, that apron is a crime and that sea bass isn't fresh, it's three days dead
[03:27.76] Mom, I really need to know if I can
[03:30.05] Wait, now where'd she go?
[03:31.29] God, I'll never draw her focus from the bread
[03:34.36]
[03:54.25] Just one day, that's all we get it
[03:56.71] Till the go, The Hunt, the story
[04:00.10] Just one day, sunrise, sunset
[04:03.05] Then that night in all it's glory
[04:06.63] Just say the word and she'll be on her way
[04:11.73] For one stressful, perfect, busy, winning, anxious, stellar, high stakes, kickass
[04:16.04] Do or die
[04:17.68] Crazy day!
[04:25.45]
