Cockeyed Optimist

In the style of

South Pacific (Movie Version)

Lyrics

when the sky is
a bright
canary yellow
i forget every cloud
i've ever seen

so they call me
a cockeyed 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 cockeyed optimist
and i can't get it
into my head

i hear the human race
is falling on its face
and hasn't very far
to go

but every
whippoorwill
is selling me a bill
and telling me
it just ain't so

i could say life is just
a bowl of jell-o
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
