[Verse 1]
Sun's up, a little after twelve
Make breakfast for myself
Leave the work for someone else
People say
They say that it's just a phase
They tell me to act my age
Well, I am
[Chorus]
On this perfect day
Nothing's standing in my way
On this perfect day
When nothing can go wrong
It's the perfect day
Tomorrow's gonna come too soon
I could stay
Forever as I am
On this perfect day
[Verse 2]
Sun's down, a little after ten
I pick up all my friends, in my Mercedes Benz
Wake up (Wake up)
Don't tell me it's just a dream
'Cause when I've had enough, you'll hear me say
Now don't you try to rain on my...
[Chorus]
Perfect day
Nothing's standing in my way
On this perfect day
When nothing can go wrong
It's the perfect day
Tomorrow's gonna come too soon
I could stay
Forever as I am
On this perfect day
[Bridge]

So don't stop me 'til I'm good and done
Don't you try to rain on my...

It's the perfect day
It's the perfect day
Nothing's gonna bring me down
I could stay
Forever as I am
On this perfect day
Nothing's standing in my way
On this perfect day
Nothing can go wrong
[Outro]
(On this perfect day) I'm in the race, but I've already won
And getting there can be half the fun
So don't stop me 'til I'm good and done
Don't you try to rain on my perfect day
On this perfect day
On this perfect day

Perfect Day was produced by Soul Survivor & Ron Fair.
Hoku Clements released Perfect Day on Fri Jul 13 2001.
“Perfect Day” feels like my biggest hit. Because it was linked with Legally Blonde, I get way more recognition for that song. When I’m ordering at Starbucks and say my name is Hoku, they’ll go, “Oh Hoku, like ‘Perfect Day’?”
– Via Billboard (2020)
No one really knew that Legally Blonde was going to be what it was. Literally, [my label heads] were like, “This movie’s not going to become anything.“ And then the next thing you know, it’s like, this iconic movie. And my song opens it! Sitting in the premiere and hearing my song open the movie, an...
