Always Look on the Bright Side Songtext
von Monty Python

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 always look on the bright side of life
Always look on the light side of life

If life seems jolly rotten (ooh)
There's something you′ve forgotten
And that′s to laugh, and smile, and dance and sing (ooh)
When you're feeling in the dumps (ooh)
Don′t be silly chumps
Just purse your lips and whistle, that's the thing (ooh)

And always look on the bright side of life (come on)
Always look on the bright side of life


For life is quite absurd (ooh)
And death′s the final word (ooh)
You must always face the curtain with a bow (ooh)
Forget about your sin, give the audience a grin (ooh)
Enjoy it, it's your last chance anyhow

So, always look on the bright side of death
A-just before you draw your terminal breath

Life′s a piece of shit (ooh)
When you look at it
Life's a laugh and death's a joke, it′s true (ooh)
You′ll see it's all a show (ooh)
Keep ′em laughing as you go
Just remember that the last laugh is on you (ooh)

And always look on the bright side of life
Always look on the right side of life
(C'mon, Brian, cheer up)

Always look on the bright side of life
Always look on the bright side of life
(Worse things happen at sea, you know?)
Always look on the bright side of life (I mean, what have you got to lose?)
(You know, you come from nothing, you′re going back to nothing)
(What have you lost? Nothing) always look on the bright side of life


(Nothing will come from nothing, you know what they say?)
Always look on the bright side of life (cheer up, ya old bugger)
(C'mon, give us a grin, there you are, see? It′s the end of the film)
(Incidentally, this record is available in the foyer)
Always look on the bright side of life
(Some of us got to live as well, you know?)

(All right, that's the lot, let's get this place knocked down)
Always look on the bright side of life
(The whole show′s dismantled in three weeks)
(Who do you think pays for all this rubbish?)
Always look on the bright side of life (they′ll never make their money back)
(You know, I told him, I said to him, "Bernie," I said)
("They'll never make their money back")
Always look on the bright side of life
Always look on the bright...
