Nellie:
When the sky is a bright canary yellow
I forget ev'ry cloud I've ever seen,
So they called me a co*keyed optimist
Immature and incurably green. I have heard people rant and rave and bellow
That we're done and we might as well be dead,
But I'm only a co*keyed optimist
And I can't get it into my head. I hear the human race
Is fallin' on its face
And hasn't very far to go,
But ev'ry whippoorwill
Is sellin' me a bill,
And tellin' me it just ain't so. I could say life is just a bowl of Jello
And appear more intelligent and smart,
But I'm stuck like a dope
With a thing called hope,
And I can't get it out of my heart!
Not this heart...
