Some things in life are bad, they can really muck you, maggot. Other things just make you swear and curse. When you're chewing on life's gristle, duck, rumble, give a whistle, and this'll help things turn out for the best. Hey! Always look on the bright side of life. Always look on the light side of life. If life seems jolly rotten, there's something you've forgotten, and that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing. When you're feeling in the dumps, don't be silly chumps, just purse your lips and whistle, that's the thing. Hey! Always look on the bright side of life. Always look on the right side of life. When you're stuck on the world stage with lots of weirdos half your age, and everything is starting to go wrong, it's too late to run away, you might as well just stay, especially if they play your silly song. Hey! Always look on the bright side of life. Always look on the right side of life. For life is quite absurd, and death's the final word, you must always face the curtain with a bow. Forget about your sin, give the audience a grin, enjoy it, it's your last chance anyhow. Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Life's a piece of shit when you look at it Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it's true You'll see it's all a show, keep on laughing as you go Just remember that the last laugh is on you And always look on the bright side of life Always look on the bright side of life Always look on the bright side of life Always look on the bright side of life Always look on the bright side of life Always look on the bright side of life Always look on the bright side of life
