A Wonderful Day Like Today

The second I saw it, I knew.
 I said to myself: "Aha!"
 I could tell at a glance
 That it wasn't by chance
 That we happened to be where we are.
 From the moment I woke with the lark,
 We were both of us singing away,
 And the sky was so blue
 I instinctively knew
 We were in for a wonderful day.
 As I told you before
 When I saw what I saw,
 I was terribly tempted to say:
 On a wonderful day like today,
 I defy any cloud to appear in the sky,
 Dare any raindrop to plop in my eye
 On a wonderful day like today.
 On a wonderful morning like this
 When the sun is as big as a yellow balloon;
 Even the sparrows are signing in tune
 On a wonderful morning like this.
 On a morning like this I could kiss ev'rybody,
 I'm so full of love and good will.
 Let me say furthermore, I'd adore ev'rybody
 To come and dine -- the pleasure's mine --
 And I will play the bill!
 May I take this occasion to say
 That the whole human race
 Should go down on its knees,
 Show that we're grateful
 For mornings like these
 For the world's in a wonderful way
 On a wonderful day like today.
 On a wonderful morning like this
 When the sun is as big as a yellow balloon;
 Even the sparrows are signing in tune
 On a wonderful morning like this.
 On a wonderful day ...
 Yes, Sir, what did you say?
 A fantabulous day!
 Don't get carried away.
 On a wonderful day like today!
