The Roses of Success Lyrics

[INVENTOR 1]
Every bursted bubble has a glory

[INVENTOR 2]
Each abysmal failure makes a point

[INVENTOR 3]
Every glowing path that goes astray
Shows you how to find a better way

[INVENTOR 4]
So every time you stumble, never grumble

[INVENTORS 5 & 6]
Next time you'll bumble even less

[ALL INVENTORS]
For up from the ashes
Up from the ashes
Grow the roses of success

Grow the roses
Grow the roses
Grow the roses of success
Oh, yes!
Grow the roses
Those rosy roses
From the ashes of disaster
Grow the roses of success

[GRANDPA POTTS, spoken]
Yes, I know. But he wants it to float!

[INVENTOR 2, spoken]
It will!

[INVENTORS 1 & 2]
For every big mistake you make, be grateful

[INVENTORS 3 & 4]
Hear, hear!
That mistake you'll never make again
No, sir!

[INVENTOR 5 & 6]
Every shiny dream that fades and dies
Generates the steam for two more tries

[GRANDPA]
Oh!
There's magic in the wake of a fiasco

[INVENTOR 5 & 6]
Correct!

[GRANDPA]
It gives you the chance to second-guess

[ALL INVENTORS]
Oh yes!

[GRANDPA]
When up from the ashes

[ALL]
Up from the ashes
Grow the roses of success

Grow the roses
Grow the roses
Grow the roses of success
Grow the roses
Those rosy roses
From the ashes of disaster
Grow the roses of success

[GRANDPA]
Disaster didn't stymie Louis Pasteur

[INVENTOR 1]
No, sir!

[GRANDPA]
Edison took years to see the light

[INVENTOR 1]
Right

[GRANDPA]
Alexander Graham knew failure well
He took a lot of knocks to ring that bell

[ALL]
So when it gets distressing, it's a blessing
Onward and upward you must press
Yes, yes!
'Til up from the ashes
Up from the ashes
Grow the roses of success

Grow the ro-, grow the ro-, grow the roses
Grow the ro-, grow the ro-, grow the roses
Grow the roses of success
Grow the ro-, grow the ro-, grow the roses
Those rosy ro-,those rosy ro-, those rosy roses
From the ashes of disaster
Grow the roses of success

[GRANDPA, spoken]
Start the engine!

[INVENTORS]
Success!

[GRANDPA, spoken]
Batten the 'atches!

[INVENTORS]
Success!

[GRANDPA, spoken]
Man the shrouds!
Lift the anchor!

[ALL]
Success!
