Mel Brooks - Hope For The Best (Expect The Worst) lyrics
[Mel Brooks - Hope For The Best Expect The Worst lyrics]
Some drink champagne, some die of thirst
No way of knowing which way it's going
Hope for the best, expect the worst!
Hope for the best, expect the worst
The world's a stage, we're unrehearsed
Some reach the top, friends
While others drop, friends
Hope for the best, expect the worst!
I knew a man who saved
A fortune that was splendid
Then he died the day he planned
To go and spend it
Shouting "Live while you're alive!
No one will survive!"
Life is sorrow here today and gone tomorrow
Live while you're alive
No one will survive there's no guarantee
Hope for the best, expect the worst
You could be Tolstoy or Fannie Hurst
So take your chances there are no answers
Hope for the best expect the worst!
I knew a man who saved
A fortune that was splendid
Then he died the day he'd planned
To go and spend it
Shouting "Live while you're alive!
No one will survive!"
Life is funny Save your
Worries! Spend your money!
Live while you're alive
No one will survive there's no guarantee
Hope for the best expect the worst
The rich are blessed the poor are cursed
That is a fact, friends, the deck is stacked
Friends hope for the best, expect the
Even with a good beginning
It's not certain that you're winning
Even with the best of chances
They can kick you in the pantses
Look out for the- Watch out for the worst!
Hey!
