Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse.
When you're chewing on life's gristle
Don't grumble, give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best...
And...always look on the bright side of life...If life seems jolly rotten
Always look on the light side of life...
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.
And...always look on the bright side of life...For life is quite absurd
Always look on the light side of life...
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.
So always look on the bright side of deathLife's a piece of tulip
Just before you draw your terminal breath
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 'em 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 right side of life...
(Come on guys, cheer up!)
Always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the bright side of life...
(Worse things happen at sea, you know.)
Always look on the bright side of life...
(I mean - what have you got to lose?)
(You know, you come from nothing - you're going back to nothing.
What have you lost? Nothing!)
Always look on the right side of life...

From a modern Hip Hop perspective: Public Enemy - He Got Game
It says much the same thing
If man is the father of the son
Is the center of the earth
In the middle of the universe
Why is this verse comin
Six times rehearsed
Dont freestyle much so
I write em like such
Amongst the fiends
Controlled by the screens
What does it all mean
All this tulip Im seein
Human beings scream vocal javelins
Signs of a local nigga unravelin
My wandering
Got my ass wondering
Where christ is
In all this crisis
Hatin satan
Never knew what nice is
Check the papers
While I bet on isis
More than your eye can see
And ears can here
Year by year
All the sense disappears
Nonsense perseveres
Prayers laced wit fear
Beware
2 triple 0 is near
Damn was it somethin I said
Pretend you dont see
So you turn your head
Race scared of its shadow
Does it matter?
Thought areparations
Got em playin wit the population
Nothing to lose
Everythings approved
People used
Even murders excused
White men in suits
Dont have to jump
Still theres 1001 ways
To lose wit the shoes
God takes care of ol folks and fools
While the devil takes care
Of makin the rules
Folks dont even own themselves
Payin mental rent
To corporate president
1 outta 1 million residents
Be a dissident
Who aint kissin it
The politics of chains and whips
Got the sick
Missin chips and championships
Whats love got to do
Wit what you got
Dont let a win get to your head
Or a loss to your heart
Nonsense perseveres
Prayers heed wit fear
Beware
2 triple o is near
It might feel good
Sound a lil somethin
Damn the game
If it dont mean nuttin
What is game who got game
Wheres the game
In life
Behind the game
Behind the game
I got game
She got game
We got game
They got game
He got game
That millenium
Just be killin em
Scary
Like lies buried in the library
When did a state pen
Correct anything
When piles of us
Still be catchin the bus
When stacks of cats
Packin laundry mats
Paid the preachers back
But where the teachers at?
I aint even gotta ask it
As whos underpaid and
Fouled at the basket
I cant blame the envy
At who gettin the benjis
And takin grants for granted
Last I checked pyramids
Wasnt built like projects
Or on government checks
Modern day thugs
Aint got no guts
Pardon the expression
Under governor nuts
Last time in a church
Be the last time in a church
Dead pledged alliance
To many cds and movies
Leaving reality
Believing fantasy
Bleedin fatalities
Too many formalities
Prayers laced wit fear
Beware
2 triple o is here

Its happening everywhere. Thousands die everyday because of bombs, lack of food, lack of medicine and lack of support.
All the while the rich get richer and fatter and fatter.

Only if you watch the news.
Like Bill Hicks (RIP) once said:
Watch CNN Headline News for 1 hour, it's the most depressing thing you'll ever do.
"WAR, FAMINE, DEATH, AIDS, HOMELESS, RECESSION, DEPRESSION. WAR, FAMINE, DEATH, AIDS, HOMELESS …"
Then, you look out your window … [makes cricket noises] Where's all this tulip happening?

"Whats Going On"
Marvin Gaye - Whats Going On
This songs come to mind when i look at the state of the world today. Its filled with War and Hate.
Mother, mother
There's too many of you crying
Brother, brother, brother
There's far too many of you dying
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today
Father, father
We don't need to escalate
You see, war is not the answer
For only love can conquer hate
You know we've got to find a way
To bring some lovin' here today
Father, father, everybody thinks we're wrong
Oh, but who are they to judge us
Simply because our hair is long
Oh, you know we've got to find a way
To bring some understanding here todayTags: None
