《A Cockeyed Optimist》歌词

[00:00:00] A Cockeyed Optimist - The London Theater Orchestra

[00:00:11] When the skies are brighter canary yellow

[00:00:16] I forget every cloud I've ever seen

[00:00:21] So they called me a cockeyed optimist

[00:00:25] Immature and incurably green

[00:00:29] I have heard people rant and rave and bellow

[00:00:34] That we're done and we might as well be dead

[00:00:38] But I'm only a cockeyed optimist

[00:00:43] And I can't get it into my head

[00:00:47] I hear the human race

[00:00:49] Is falling on its face

[00:00:51] And hasn't very far to go

[00:00:56] But every whippoorwill

[00:00:58] Is selling me a bill

[00:01:01] And telling me it just ain't so

[00:01:05] I could say life is just a bowl of Jello

[00:01:10] And appear more intelligent and smart

[00:01:14] But I'm stuck like a dope

[00:01:17] With a thing called hope

[00:01:19] And I can't get it out of my heart

[00:01:24] Not this heart
