Oldies But Goldies 959

Every afternoon is sunny but it's funny

No one ever seems to get a bird

Everybody's doing good things, saying nice words

But the more they practice what they learn

There's such a perfect future, super fun

People doing what they're supposed to

Perfectly contented in a nursery rhyme

Living happily ever after

All complete with joy and laughter

No one seems to mind

If it's a nursery rhyme

If I had my life to live over

I wouldn't want to be anybody else but me

It might not have been a highlight

But I want to let you know it's my life, can't you see?

If things haven't gone just right

I'm not gonna let it get me down

I'm just gonna sit up in the starlight

And wait for you to cry

Drink up the wine, have a good time tonight

My plans for yesterday have all gone astray

But I hope and pray they're gonna pay off someday

Tomorrow is time enough for me to call my own bluff

And if I'm gonna have to suffer, that's okay

'Cause I am a pilot of my own dreams

And I've found out what that means

It means I'm gonna sit up in the starlight

I'm just gonna sit out in the starlight, wait for the moon to rise, drink up the wine, have a good time tonight.
