Oh it's sublime, the sweep of time,
to suddenly find it's the month of May
throw back your head & open your arms
take a deep breath & get set to say
Everyday's a big breezy day
(Everyday's a big breezy day)
Open your ears & close your eyes
after the winter here comes the prize
Insects roar in appreciation
for the mid-day sun & its radiation,
and the breeze blows & blankets the land
with the sound of the trees, the lake & the sand
in the best part of the big breezy day
(Oh, the best part of the big breezy day!)
The empty ore boats float like corks
and the peoples on the beach come in all the sorts
The water rolls in
The water rolls out
Nobody cares if the water's too loud
in the best part of the big breezy day
Oh, throw back your arms & get set to say,
Everyday's a big breezy day
(Everyday's a big breezy day!)
A radio sun & the day like a beach
the perfect horizon is just out of reach
and the big jets blow in from across the lake
You leave too soon... Well, it's a big mistake!
Because the new skyscraper's going up in town,
the girders & the elevators going up & down
The steel mills forge on
Such a busy day!
With so much going on every face is gay
In the park at the edge of the lake
the modern sculptures rust & flake
in the best part of the big breezy day
Oh, throw back your head & get set to say...
Rare, rare is the drama
(with a gripping suspense)
as the power of such a day contends with common sense
In the park above the lake the modern sculptures rust & flake
