Bruce Cockburn — Always Look on The Bright Side of Life

Satirical
Following verses not included with lyrical insert
Some things in life are bad, they can really make you mad —
Other things can 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
Always look on the bright 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, and —

Always look on the bright side of life
Always look on the bright side of life

Life is quite absurd, and death’s the final word —
We 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 death
Just before you draw your terminal breath

Life’s a piece of shit, when you look at it —
Life’s a laugh and death’s a joke — it’s true.
You can 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 bright side of life…
