《A Cockeyed Optimist》歌词

[00:00:00] A Cockeyed Optimist - Various Artists

[00:00:09] When the skies are brighter canary yellow

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

[00:00:20] So they called me a cockeyed optimist

[00:00:24] Immature and incurably green

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

[00:00:33] That we're done and we might as well be dead

[00:00:37] But I'm only a cockeyed optimist

[00:00:42] And I can't get it into my head

[00:00:46] I hear the human race

[00:00:48] Is falling on its face

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

[00:00:55] But every whippoorwill

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

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

[00:01:04] I could say life is just a bowl of Jello

[00:01:09] And appear more intelligent and smart

[00:01:13] But I'm stuck like a dope

[00:01:15] With a thing called hope

[00:01:17] And I can't get it out of my heart

[00:01:23] Not this heart
