Everybody look around
'Cause there's a reason to rejoice you see
Everybody come out
And let's commence to singing joyfully
Everybody look up
And feel the hope that we've been waiting for

Everybody's glad
Because our silent fear and dread is gone
Freedom, you see, has got our hearts singing so joyfully
Just look about
You owe it to yourself to check it out
Can't you feel a brand new day?
Can't you feel a brand new day?
Can't you feel a brand new day?
Can't you feel a brand new day?

Everybody be glad
Because the sun is shining just for us
Everybody wake up
Into the morning into happiness

Hello world
It's like a different way of living now
And thank you world
We always knew that we'd be free somehow
In harmony
And show the world that we've got liberty

It's such a change
For us to live so independently
Freedom, you see, has got our hearts singing so joyfully
Just look about
You owe it to yourself to check it out
Can't you feel a brand new day?
Can't you feel a brand new day?"

~Brand New Day, from The Wiz

I really like this song. I'm not sure if it's particularly applicable or relatable, as it's about a town of munchkins being freed from the oppressive rule of a wicked witch, BUT it's still very happy. I like to wake up to this song. It puts me in a chipper mood. :-)

So everyone, go out there and give the world a big shout, hello! It's got something great in store for you today. ;)

Listen to the song and let me know what you think!
