[Intro]

La-la-la, la-la-la-la-la

La-la-la, la-la-la-la-la


[Verse 1]

It's a gift, I'm a perpetual optimist

Oh, I have to be to survive all of the trials and tribulations

I take my troubles, turn 'em into entertainment

And I wonder


[Pre-Chorus]

Was I a fucker in my past life?

'Cause karma's here and she's really tryin'

I try seeing the funny side

Lucky I'm good at comic timing


[Chorus]

I know, I know that I'll be alright

When life is a joke, I still got the punchline

I know, I know if I don't laugh, I'll cry

When life is a joke, I still got the punchline


[Post-Chorus]

La-la-la, la-la-la-la-la (Ooh)

La-la-la, la-la-la-la-la


[Verse 2]

When life gives me lemons, I just plant another tree

Now I've got an orchard, I drink lemonade for free

'Causе when it gets difficult, I turn that shit satirical

'Cause what еlse would I do? I'd cry a swimming pool


[Pre-Chorus]

Was I a fucker in my past life?

'Cause karma's here and she's really tryin'

I try seeing the funny side

Lucky I'm good at comic timing


[Chorus]

I know, I know that I'll be alright

When life is a joke, I still got the punchline

I know, I know if I don't laugh, I'll cry

When life is a joke, I still got the punchline


[Bridge]

Knock, knock, who's there?

When life's unfair, I swear I'll keep on smilin'

Knock, knock, who's there?

When life's unfair, I'll see the silver lining

I know, I know that I'll be alright

When life is a joke, I still got the punchline


[Chorus]

I know, I know that I'll be alright

When life is a joke, I still got the punchline

I know, I know if I don't laugh, I'll cry

When life is a joke, I still got the punchline

I know, I know that I'll be alright (Oh, I'll be alright)

When life is a joke, I still got the punchline

I know, I know if I don't laugh, I'll cry

When life is a joke, I still got the punchline
