"Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" from Monty Python's "Life of Brian"

Cheer up, Brian. You know what they say.
Some things in life are bad,
They can really make you mad.
Other things just 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...

(the music fades into the song)

...always look on the bright side of life!
(whistle)

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...

(whistle)
Come on!

(other start to join in)
Always look on the bright side of life...
(whistle)

For life is quite absurd,
And death's the final word.
You must always face the curtain with a bow!
Forget about your sin -- give the audience a grin,
Enjoy it -- it's the 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'll 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...
(whistle)
Always look on the bright side of life
(whistle)
I like this song. I'm listening to it over and over again while i type this. My motto: Always look on the bright side of life. (not in that phrasing but the gist of it is that) Nice nice... it's easy for me to do this. I've alot of practise now it comes naturally. Whenever i meet some rotten situation or experience people who do things that hurt, it's easy for me to come up with an good explaination for what is happening or rather you can say i'd be making excuses for people. If it makes life bearable and if i feel better why not? A little self deception always helps. I can't be the worst person trapped in the worst situation... There's always someone else experiencing tougher times and coping with it. What's mine compared to theirs... I can handle it. =0)
