Just One Day From Freaky Friday the Disney Channel Original Movie by Cozi Zuehlsdorff Lyrics
[ELLIE]
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
[KATHERINE]
Just one day
Is all I want
With my family united
Fears 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 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
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 ten hours
Dress the tables
Trim the flowers
I want beauty and perfection
I want total awe
[TORREY]
And remember that reporter
'Cause it's crucial that we court her
The business is depending on this one success
[KATHERINE]
Now breathe, but thank you Torrey
And in fact that is the story
So get moving, move this produce
And remove this mess
(spoken)
Ellie Blake! Breakfast! Now!
[ELLIE]
One more day
She's on my back
She's been riding me forever
With 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
(DIALOGUE)
FLETCHER: Hi Mike! Little dude!
MIKE: Big man!
ELLIE: Fletcher? That's mine! Dad gave it to me! You give that back right now!
KATHERINE: Alright, hold on! Stop-
FLETCHER: No, no, no!
KATHERINE: Hey, stop yelling!
ELLIE: This is not a toy. Does this look like a toy?
FLETCHER: I'm not acting like this is a toy!
ELLIE: You're playing with it
[KATHERINE]
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
And now it's time to hear some laughter
'Cause I only want her happy
And well punctual and clean
But she mumbles and she crumbles
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
(DIALOGUE)
TORREY: They brought hot house tomatoes-
KATHERINE: Oh! You scared me. You scare me -all- the time
(indistinct speaking at once)
ELLIE: MOOOM!
[KATHERINE]
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
[ELLIE]
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
(LAYERED VOCALS)
[KATHERINE:] It's a million little things, from the riesling to the rings, and I have to count out every single plate!
[ELLIE:] Mom it's just a little game, just a silly little game, and I wouldn't even play!
[MIKE:] Katherine, oh one other thing, see the jeweler sized the ring, it's a little large
[KATHERINE & TORREY:] What a day! What a day! What a day! Yay!
[FLETCHER:] Hey! Mom, hey! Hey! (6x) Mom!
[ELLIE:] Mom, not okay... safe to say... Okay! Okay? Okay?! Okay!
[MIKE:] But really who can tell? It's okay! (2x) It's okay. It's okay!
[FLETCHER, MIKE & ELLIE]
Just one day, that's all we get
[KATHERINE]
Just one day to show my skills!
Till the vows, the hunt, the story!
Just one day, sunrise, sunset
To get cashed out, get drunk, paid my dues!
And then night in all it's glory!
[ENSEMBLE & ELLIE]
Just say the word and we'll be on our way, on our way
[KATHERINE]
To show what I can do. And see what I can take in just one day
[MIKE]
We're on our way
[KATHERINE & EVERYONE ELSE]
For one

Stressful

Perfect
