oscar hammerstein – a cock-eyed optimist lyrics
Loading...
nellie:
when the skies are brighter canary yellow
i forget ev’ry cloud i’ve ever seen,
so they called me a c-ckeyed optimist
immature and incurably green.
i have heard people rant and rave and bellow
that we’re done and we might as well be dead,
but i’m only a c-ckeyed optimist
and i can’t get it into my head.
i hear the human race
is fallin’ on its face
and hasn’t very far to go,
but ev’ry whippoorwill
is sellin’ me a bill,
and tellin’ me it just ain’t so.
i could say life is just a bowl of jello
and appear more intelligent and smart,
but i’m stuck like a dope
with a thing called hope,
and i can’t get it out of my heart!
not this heart…
