A Cock-Eyed Optimist (《南太平洋》电影插曲) - Lena Horne (莲纳·荷恩)[00:00:00]

When the sky is a bright canary yellow[00:00:09]

I forget ev'ry cloud I've ever seen[00:00:16]

So they called me a cockeyed optimist[00:00:23]

I'm mature and incurably green[00:00:31]

I have heard people rant[00:00:38]

And rave and bellow[00:00:41]

That we're done and[00:00:45]

We might as well be dead[00:00:47]

But I'm only a cockeyed optimist[00:00:53]

And I can't get it into my head[00:01:00]

I hear the human race[00:01:07]

Is fallin' on its face[00:01:11]

And hasn't very far to go[00:01:15]

But ev'ry whippoor will[00:01:22]

Is sellin' me a bill[00:01:26]

And tellin' me it just ain't so[00:01:29]

I could say life is[00:01:36]

Just a bowl of Jello[00:01:39]

And appear more intelligent and smart[00:01:44]

But I'm stuck like a dope[00:01:52]

With a thing called hope[00:01:55]

And I can't get it out of my heart[00:01:59]

No Not this heart[00:02:06]

I hear the human race[00:02:14]

Is fallin' on its face[00:02:17]

And hasn't very far to go[00:02:21]

But ev'ry whippoor will[00:02:28]

Is sellin' me a bill[00:02:32]

And tellin' me it just ain't so[00:02:35]

I could say life is[00:02:43]

Just a bowl of Jello[00:02:46]

And appear more intelligent and smart[00:02:50]

But I'm stuck like a dope[00:02:57]

With a thing called hope[00:03:01]

And I can't get it out of my heart[00:03:05]

No Not this heart[00:03:12]
