It could be worse

No evil lasts a hundred years, No body stands against its fears. No gloom can cure, it’s plain to see, The fever of an optimist like me. [Bridge] Let’s think in ways that shine so bright, We’ve got ideas to make it right, To turn life’s bitterness around, And lift each heart from off the ground. [Chorus] We’ve got a fortune stored inside, In laughter where our dreams reside, Embassies up on the moon, Summers, springs, they’ll come so soon. The bottle’s half full, the glass half drained, Life flows through us, joy unchained. [Bridge] Rabies shot, cherries in the pot, Side by side, we give all we’ve got. Alcohol through every vein, Adventures running in our brain. We’ve got high fronts, wings to soar, Sour lemons, ten fingers more. Good humor always at our call, Fun and laughter through it all. [Bridge] No shortage of teasing or jest, April to April, we love it best. Life’s a carnival, full of cheer, Every moment, we hold it near. [Solo] [Chorus] We’ve got a fortune stored inside, In laughter where our dreams reside, Embassies up on the moon, Summers, springs, they’ll come so soon. The bottle’s half full, the glass half drained, Life flows through us, joy unchained. So don’t let sadness take the stage, Hold this song, turn a new page. Though life can sting, it could be worse, In prose or rhyme, we lift the curse. [Chorus] We’ve got a fortune stored inside, In laughter where our dreams reside, Embassies up on the moon, Summers, springs, they’ll come so soon. The bottle’s half full, the glass half drained, Life flows through us, joy unchained.
