Lyrics
You dear attractive dewy-eyed idealist
Today you have to learn to be a realist.
You may be bent on doing deeds of derring-do
But up against a shark, what can a herring do?
Be wise, compromise!
Compromise and be wise!
Let them think you're on their side, be noncommitical
I will not bow my head to the men I despise
You won't have to bow your head, just stoop a little.
Why not learn to put your faith and your reliance
On an obvious and simple fact of science?
A crazy planet full of crazy people
Is somersaulting all around the sky
And ev'rytime it turns another somersault
Another day goes by!
And there's no way to stop it, no there's no way to stop it
No, you can't stop it even if you try
So I'm not going to worry, no I'm not going to worry
Ev'ry time I see another day go by.
While somersaulting at a cock-eyed angle
We make a cock-eyed circle 'round the sun
And when we circle back to where we started from
Another year has run
And there's no way to stop it, no there's no way to stop it
If the earth wants to roll around the sun!
You're a fool if you worry, you're a fool if you worry
Over anything but little Number One!
That's you!
That's I
And I
And me! That all absorbing character!
That fascinating creature!
That superspecial feature
Me!
So ev'ry star and ev'ry whirling planet, and ev'ry constellation in the sky
Revolve around the centre of the universe, a lovely thing called I!
And there's no way to stop it, no there's no way to stop it
And I know though I cannot tell you why.
That's charming
That as long as I'm living
Just as long as I'm living there'll be nothing else as wonderful as I!
Nothing else as wonderful as I.
