"Making Today a Perfect Day" is a song written by Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez, and sung by Elsa (Idina Menzel) and Anna (Kristen Bell) with the additional singing voices of Oaken (Chris Williams), Kristoff (Jonathan Groff), and Olaf (Josh Gad), in 2015 Disney animated short Frozen Fever.
During the song, Elsa comes down with a cold while trying her utmost best to make her sister's birthday perfect for all Anna's done for her. Elsa overexerts her abilities which results in a day of rest. In Anna's perspective, the best gift given from Elsa is letting Anna take care of her.
Lyrics
Elsa: You've never had a real birthday before
Except of course the ones you spent outside my locked door
So I'm here way too late to help you celebrate
And be your birthday date, if I may... Achoo!
Anna: Elsa, I'm thinkin' you might have a cold
Elsa: I don't get colds. Besides, a cold never bothered me anyway
Just follow the string!
I've got big plans, I've got surprises for today
Nothin', but nothin's, gonna get in our way
I've worked for weeks, planned everything within my power
I even got Kristoff and Sven to take a shower
If someone wants to hold me back
I'd like to see them try
I'm on the birthday plan attack
I'm givin' you the sun, the moon and the sky!
I'm makin' today a perfect day, for you
I'm makin' today a blast if it's the last thing I do
For everything you are to me and all you've been through
I'm makin' today a perfect day for you
Achoo! Achoo!
Anna: They come in threes!
Elsa: I'm fine, achoo!
Surprise, surprise this one is specially achoo!
Anna: Wow, you've got me reeling, but I'm still concerned for you
I think it's time that you go home and get some rest
Elsa: We are not stopping 'cause the next one is the be —, ah...achoo!
Anna: Elsa, you gotta go lie down
Elsa: No way, we have to paint the town
Anna: But you need medical attention
Oaken: Are you sick? How 'bout a cold remedy of my own invention
Elsa: No thanks.
Anna: We'll take it.
Children choir: We're makin' today a perfect day, for you
Elsa: Makin' today a special day
Children choir: We're singing a birthday song to make your wishes come true
Elsa: Wishes come true
Children choir: We love princess Anna
Elsa: And I love you too
Children choir: So, we're makin' today a perfect day
A fabulous day in every way
Yes, we are makin' today a perfect day!
Elsa: Come on, now we climb!
Anna: Elsa, that's too much. You need to rest!
Elsa: Uh, we need to get to our birthday chills — I mean thrills!
Making dreams, making plans, go go go go
Follow the string to the end
You are my very best friend
Anna: Elsa?
Elsa: What? I'm fine
We're gonna climb
We're gonna sing
Follow the string
To the thing
Happy happy happy
Merry merry merry
Hot, cold, hot, birthday!
Anna: Whoa! Elsa, look at you,
Anna: Whoa! Elsa, look at you; you've got a fever, you're burning up!
Alright, we can't go on like this
Let's put this day on hold
Come on, admit it to yourself
Elsa: Okay, I have a cold
I'm sorry Anna, I just wanted to give you one perfect birthday. But I ruined it, again.
Anna: You didn't ruin anything. Let's just get you to bed.
Everyone: Surprise!!!
Anna: Wow!
Elsa: Wow?
Everyone: We're makin' today a perfect day for you
We're makin' today a smiley face all shiny and new
Kristoff: There's a fine line between chaos
Olaf: And a hullabaloo, whoo!
Everyone: So, we're makin' today a perfect day
We're makin' today a perfect day
A! N! N! A!
We're makin' today a perfect day for you
Kristoff: Happy birthday.
Everyone: We're makin' today a happy day and no feeling blue
Kristoff: I love you baby!
Everyone: For everything you are to us
And all that you do
Kristoff: I do!
Everyone: We're makin' today a perfect day
Makin' today a perfect day
We're makin' today a perfect day
Elsa: Perfect day!
Anna: Okay, to bed with you.
Elsa: No! Wait, wait, all that's left to do is for the queen to blow the birthday bukkehorn.
Anna: Oh, no no no no no no no...
Elsa: Achoo!
Anna: Best birthday present ever.
Elsa: Which one?
Anna: You letting me take care of you.
