Oh, Give Me a Day
A day in the life of a ballerina, or a day in comfortable shoes
I'd like to step into hundreds of scenes to get rid of the world and it's views
Oh, give me a day, (Hey!) Oh, give me a day
Give me a day with a road map, give me a day with a plan
Give me a day with an honest report, a "thank you," and "come again, ma'am"
Oh give me a day in the courtyard, where gardeners dirty their hands
They're burying bulbs where flowers will rise with colorful blue and white bands
Oh, give me a day, (Hey!) Oh, give me a day
Give me a day with a road map, give me a day with a plan
Give me a day, Oh, give me a day with a "thank you," and "come again, ma'am"
Give me a day in the wheat fields with sunshine covered in haze
And Celestial Fingers sifting through gold, and a breeze that blows me away
Oh, give me a day, (Hey!) Oh, give me a day
Give me a day with a road map, give me a day with a plan
Give me a day, Oh, give me a day with a "thank you," and "come again, ma'am"
Give me a straightforward morning, give me a day that is frank
And a day that unfolds in ideas that should profit
In little green bills in the bank
Oh, give me a day, (Hey!) Oh, give me a day
Give me a day with a road map, give me a day with a plan
Give me a day, Oh, give me a day with a "thank you," and "come again, ma'am"
Oh, give me a day without politics, give me a showing of hands
Who's tired of talking about what isn't working and "who's destroying the land?"
Oh, give me a day, (Hey!) Oh, give me a day
Give me a day with a road map, give me a day with a plan
Give me a day, Oh, give me a day with a "thank you," and "come again, ma'am"
