O/P

There are silver clouds all over the sky
But you'll find the black lining
If you're looking for happiness
Why not cut back on your whining?

And be an optimist
So when it all goes wrong
You can still find your way home
But you're a pessimist
And you pay for it
And your drag is all your own

You're crying 'bout your half glass of milk
Before you've even spilled it
I have a glass that's half-empty, too -
But I know life refills it

'Cause I'm an optimist
And when it all goes wrong
I know I'll still find my way home
But you're a pessimist
And you pay for it
And your drag is all your own

Only you could see this day
And find a way to bitch
It's such a fucked-up way to live
It keeps you down

I'm such an optimist
That when December comes
I can still believe it's June
But you're a pessimist
And it eats you up
And you'll probably die too soon

I'm a optimist
And it all comes down
To the way I choose to see
But you're a pessimist
And, hey, that's your choice, too
But don't you lay your drag on me
I don't want it

There are silver clouds all over the sky
But you'll find the black lining
