《A Cock-Eyed Optimist》歌词

[00:00:02] A Cock-Eyed Optimist - Johnny Mathis

[00:00:10] When the skies are brighter canary yellow

[00:00:14] I forget every cloud I've ever seen

[00:00:19] 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

[00:00:39] But I'm only a cockeyed optimist

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

[00:00:48] I hear the human race

[00:00:50] Is falling on I'ts face

[00:00:53] And hasn't very far to go

[00:00:57] Yes But every whippoorwill

[00:01:00] Is selling me a bill

[00:01:02] And telling me it just ain't so

[00:01:07] I could say life is just a bowl of Jello

[00:01:11] And appear more intelligent and smart

[00:01:16] But I'm stuck like a dope

[00:01:19] With a thing called hope

[00:01:21] And I can't get it out of my heart

[00:01:26] Not this heart

[00:01:53] Ain't so

[00:01:55] I could say life is just a bowl of Jello

[00:01:59] And appear more intelligent and smart

[00:02:04] But I'm stuck like a dope

[00:02:06] With a thing called hope

[00:02:09] And I can't get it out of my heart

[00:02:13] No Not this heart
