Always Look on the Bright Side of Life

Monty Python Sings

Some things in life are bad,
they can really make you mad. 
Other things just make you swear and curse. 
When youre chewing on lifes gristle,
dont grumble, give a whistle! 
And thisll help things turn out for the best and... 
 
Always look on the bright side of life. 
Always look on the light side of life. 
 
If life seems jolly rotten,
theres something youve forgotten,
and thats to laugh and smile and dance and sing. 
When youre feeling in the dumps,
dont be silly chumps! 
Just purse your lips and whistle, thats the thing. 
 
And always look on the bright side of life. Come on! 
Always look on the bright side of life. 
 
For life is quite absurd
and deaths the final word. 
You must always face the curtain with a bow. 
Forget about your sin,
give the audience a grin.
Enjoy it, its your last chance anyhow! 
 
So always look on the bright side of death
a-just before you draw your terminal breath. 
 
Lifes a piece of shit (spit),
when you look at it. 
Lifes a laugh and deaths a joke, its true. 
Youll see its 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, Brian, 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, whatve you got to lose?  You know, you come from nothing, youve gone back to nothing.  Whatve you lost?  Nothing!  Nothing will come from nothing, you know what they say?  Cheer up, you old bugger.  Come on, give us a grin.  There ya are.  See?  Its nearly the end of the record.  Youll be noticing another tune in a minute.  Oh, I see it, your friends just run off with an Argentinean polo player.  Ok!  Your husband just decamped with the babysitter!  And hes from Norway.  All right!  So your teams losing fifteen million to barney!  Its not the end of the world, is it?  Ah, come on, cheer up!  Moan, moan, moan, thats all people do these days.  Especially you old people.  If all youre going to do is sit around and moan, they should take your teeth away!  Ah, come on girls, put a kettle on and have a nice cup of tea.  Thats it!  All right, come on, you groovy disc jockey, better get your scrubbish off now.  I bet you better cut to something depressing, like the news.
