[00:07.04]When the skies are brighter canary yellow
[00:10.50]I forget every cloud I've ever seen
[00:14.06]So the called me a cockeyed optimist
[00:17.87]Immature and incurably green
[00:21.47]I have heard people rant and rave and bellow
[00:24.85]That we're done and we might as well be dead
[00:28.46]But I'm only a cockeyed optimist
[00:31.93]And I can't get it into my head
[00:35.27]I hear the human race
[00:37.80]Is falling on its face
[00:39.31]And hasn't very far to go
[00:43.18]But every whippoorwill
[00:45.76]Is selling me a bill
[00:47.52]And telling me it just ain't so
[00:50.70]I could say life is just a bowl of jello
[00:53.93]And appear more intelligent and smart
[00:57.54]But I'm stuck like a dope
[00:59.63]With a thing called hope
[01:01.47]And I can't get it out of my heart
[01:05.74]Not this heart
[01:11.15]
[03:21.28]When the skies are brighter canary yellow
[03:24.91]I forget every cloud I've ever seen
[03:28.56]So the called me a cockeyed optimist
[03:32.33]Immature and incurably green
[03:35.63]I have heard people rant and rave and bellow
[03:39.41]That we're done and we might as well be dead
[03:43.04]But I'm only a cockeyed optimist
[03:46.78]And I can't get it into my head
[03:49.99]I hear the human race
[03:52.27]Is falling on its face
[03:53.89]And hasn't very far to go
[03:57.05]But every whippoorwill
[03:59.14]Is selling me a bill
[04:01.01]And telling me it just ain't so
[04:04.28]I could say life is just a bowl of jello
[04:07.93]And appear more intelligent and smart
[04:11.73]But I'm stuck like a dope
[04:13.48]With a thing called hope
[04:15.25]And I can't get it out of my heart
[04:19.57]Not this heart
[04:27.93]
