Mostly I'm an optimist
Bore my bad news and still persist
Goin' on about my problems, say
What's wrong with our world today?
It may sound funny but I give you all my money
And keep on going without a doubt
I never thought I would make it this far
Stumbling between every nightclub and bar
Every time I seemed to catch my big break
The man called me up, said there's been a mistake
Who can I count on? What can I count on?
Where should I turn to? Why should I be with you?
It may sound funny but I give you all my money
And keep on going without a doubt
The good times playin', sayin' life is good
It could be better, don't you dare, go ahead give up
From day to day I could get so depressed
But I've never paid someone to be oppressed
In my life when shit hits the fan
I simply sit back and follow this plan
It may sound funny but I give you all my money
And keep on going without a doubt
The good times playin', sayin' life is good
It could be better, don't you dare, go ahead give up
Who can I count on? What can I count on?
Where should I turn to? Why should I be with you?
It may sound funny but I give you all my money
And keep on going without a doubt
The good times playin', sayin' life is good
It could be better, don't you dare, go ahead give up
The good times playin', sayin' life is good
It could be better, don't you dare, go ahead give up
Who can I count on? What can I count on?
Where should I turn to? Why should I?
