"Brazzle Dazzle Day" is a song from the 1977 film Pete's Dragon. It is heard when Nora, Pete, and Lampie work together in painting and cleaning the lighthouse. They later sang a reprise with Paul.
A demo version of the song was recorded on February 11, 1976. Although the creative team liked it, they requested the song to be entirely rewritten for the film.
Lyrics[]
Nora:
It's a Brazzle Dazzle day,
So throw off the past and everything in it,
That's the Brazzle Dazzle way,
Enjoying your time, from minute to minute,
Running through the sand without your shoes on
Pete:
Shoes on,
Nora:
Making sure that you don't keep your blues on,
Pete:
Finding a boat we can cruise on
Nora:
It's a Brazzle Dazzle day,
When you think of love and never of sorrow,
That's the Brazzle Dazzle way,
To do your work now and take off tomorrow,
Lampie:
Flying through the air; you don't need wings on
Pete and Nora:
Wings on,
Lampie:
Climb right up! and feel the thrill it brings on,
All:
Flock with the wind as it sings on.
Nora:
Ride higher and higher
And glide above the clouds,
Free, no one to catch us or slow us,
Even the birds are below us!
It's a Brazzle Dazzle day,
A life time of joy in just a few hours,
All our Brazzle Dazzle years have just begun,
We'll follow the sun and replay
This Brazzle Dazzle day!
All:
Ride higher and higher
And glide above the clouds
Free, no one to catch us or slow us,
Even the birds are below us!
Nora:
It's a Brazzle Dazzle day,
A life time of joy in just a few hours,
All:
All our Brazzle Dazzle years have just begun,
We'll follow the sun and replay,
This Brazzle Dazzle day!
This Brazzle Dazzle day!
This Brazzle Dazzle day!
This Brazzle Dazzle day!
This Brazzle Dazzle day!
This Brazzle Dazzle day!
This Brazzle Dazzle day!
Nora:
When your job becomes a frolic
You've become a brazzaholic
Pete: (spoken)
A brazzaholic? What's that?
Nora:
Put your cloth in your fingers,
Bring it down on the brazz, scrub a stain
If it it lingers, turn that metal to glass
When it shines in a gleaming, beaming rain
Then you know it's a Brazzle Dazzle Day
Pete: (spoken)
A Brazzle Dazzle Day?
Nora: (spoken)
That's the best
For a clean, lasting luster
Don't just fiddle and poke
All the strength you can muster
Should be in every stroke
In a wink, your work will seem like play
And you'll know it's a Brazzle Dazzle Day
Watch how the glow will grow if you stick to it
Pete:
Look, look at me and see how well I do it
Nora:
You'll raise perfection if you just pursue it
Lampie:
When your job becomes a frolic
You've become a brazzaholic
Nora: (speaking)
That's what you should become.
Lampie: (speaking)
Not me!
Pete and Nora:
Feeling good while we polish
Feeling close, feeling proud
Hand in hand, we'll abolish every ring, every ground
Where the brazz sparkles clear across the bay
We'll be so glad we kept on growing
What satisfaction-knowing
We took the truly magic way
To a Brazzle Dazzle Day
Pete:
Put your cloth in your fingers, bring it down on the brazz
Lampie:
You're so kind to invite me, I regret I must pass
Nora:
Oh, help us out, join the fun without delay
Pete and Nora:
We can all have a Brazzle Dazzle Day
Lampie:
Are you sure? Got me twisted
'Round your sweet little thumb
Your old pa', has it listed
Pete:
Strike the bell!
Nora:
Sound the drum!
Pete and Nora:
Pitching in is a tiny price to pay
For the joy of cooperation
Let's have a celebration
We'll have a Razzle Tazzle
Bright, blazing Brazzle Dazzle Day
A Brazzle Dazzle Day
