Just One Day (From "Freaky Friday" the Disney Channel Original Movie)

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 a Friday to be free
Free to slouch and sulk and mumble
And be messy and be me
All I ask is for twelve hours to live my life my way
Just one simple, awesome, crazy, epic day

Just one day, that's all I want
With my family united
Ears at bay, no fights, 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 fiance 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

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 in just twelve hours
Dress the table, trim the flowers
I want beauty and perfection
I want total awe

And remember that reporter
Cause it's crucial, that reporter
The business is depending on this one success
Now breathe, but thank you Torrey
And in fact that us the story
So get moving, move this produce and remove this mess

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

One more day
She'll fight and boss
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
Now I only want her happy and while punctual and clean
But she mumbles and she grumbles and at times she's upright mean
And she's bright and so insightful but those traits aren't on display
Well, not lately, often, ever, not today

Ellie dear, it's not the time
Now that apron is a crime
And that sea bass isn't fresh, it's three days dead

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

It's a million little things from the racing to the rings
But I got this cause I love to work this way
What a day
Yay
It's okay
Yay
Okay
Yay okay, it's okay

Just one day, that's all we get
All the vows, the hunt, the story
Just one day, sunrise, sunset
Then the night and all its glory

Just say the word and she'll (we'll)
Be on our way, in just one day

For one
Stressful
Perfect
Busy
Winning
Stellar
High stakes
Epic
Do or die
Crazy day
