[Intro]
It’s a holiday day?

[Verse 1]
Why not Fourth of July Monday
And, how ’bout Tuesday’s Valentine’s Day

[Bridge]
Why can’t every day
Be a holiday
(An everyday holiday)

[Chorus]
OK we could get it to work this way
While we while the work away
We’ll declare everyday
A holiday… what do you say?

[Verse 2]
All day wedding Wednesday
Thanksgiving on Thursday

[Bridge]
Why can’t every day
Be a holiday
(An everyday holiday)

[Chorus]
OK we could get it to work this way
While we while the work away
We’ll declare everyday
A holiday… what do you say?

[Verse 3]
Friday I do believe should be New Year’s Eve
Everyone gets to play all Saturday

[Bridge]
Why can’t every day
Be a holiday
(An everyday holiday)

[Chorus]
OK we could get it to work this way
While we while the work away
We’ll declare everyday
A holiday… what do you say?

[Verse 4]
Sunday fun day…
Massive Christmas of course

[Bridge]
Why can’t every day
Be a holiday
(An everyday holiday)

[Chorus]
OK we could get it to work this way
While we while the work away
We’ll declare everyday
A holiday… what do you say?

[Outro]
Why can’t every day
Be a holiday
(An everyday holiday)

[Verse 1]
Who needs more money
Money can’t buy you love
Who needs to buy more hate
Does you haste make waste

[Bridge]
Maybe it’s time for more giving

[Chorus]
Find the road to easy living
(Find the time to live to give)
Soon you’ll be given easy living
(The more you give, the more you live)

[Verse 2]
Who wants what you earn to burn
Or your dreams to go up in smoke
Maybe consider ordinary folk
And, how they try to get by

[Bridge]
Maybe it’s time for more giving

[Chorus]
Find the road to easy living
(Find the time to live to give)
Soon you’ll be given easy living
(The more you give, the more you live)

[Bridge]
Oh yeah, it’s time for more giving
Off you seat and on your feet
(Hit the street!)

[Chorus]
Find the road to easy living
(Find the time to live to give)
Soon you’ll be given easy living
(The more you give, the more you live)

[Outro]
Oh yeah, bringing on the giving
On the road to easy living

[Verse 1]
Through the branches on a breeze
You fly through with ease
To tickle and shimmer water’s flow
The depths of nature to grow

[Chorus]
You are a ray of sunshine
(You shine so fine)
The highlight of the day
(You define time)

A ray of sunshine
(Defining I’m and mine)
Sunshine (a gold mine)
Aurum (Uhm, Uhm)
Harat (A tat-tat)

[Verse 2]
Through the clouds, unshroud
The veil lifted, you’re free
To beam from above
Remind of true love

You are a ray of sunshine
(You shine so fine)
The highlight of the day
(You define time)

Getting ready for some summer
Shaking off the winter blues
Lets march to a different drummer
And search out good news

[Chorus]
It’s clear, summertime’s here
Let’s hope it doesn’t get too hot

Yeah, I hold summertime dear
It’s not the heat it’s the humidity

Some summer!
Well aware
Rather the air
Ease…
(With a cool dry breeze)

Axis bringing on some summer
Tilting into the sun
Marching to the beat a different drummer
Around the sun, another run… here we come!
