Lyrics
A Pessimist is Never Disappointed
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's unfashionable, I guess
To knock success
It's magnified and blessed
Folk are so impressed
This is uniformity
Remember something please
As we travel up the tree
We show worse anatomy
Yet we must be so charming when we're praised
Like kids when we are trashed, we come of age
It's crazy I think of you
I know that you're coming too
Hey sunshine! I'll never shake your pride
You're what I need
You've been appointed
This is the highlight of your miserable life
A pessimist is never disappointed
Does anyone believe?
Am I judged or I achieve?
You'll know what I mean
By what I leave
Yet I must be so humble when I'm praised
Like I've reached the higher ground, I have come of age
It's crazy I think of you
I know that you're coming too
Hey sunshine! I'll never shake your pride
You're what I need
You've been appointed
This is the highlight of your miserable life
A pessimist is never disappointed
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
It's a karaoke climate and we all sing the same fuckin' song
Hey sunshine! I'll never shake your pride
You're what I need
You've been anointed
This is the highlight of your miserable life
A pessimist is never disappointed
Yeah a pessimist is never disappointed
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
