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...
