a pessimist is never disappointed

Sophie Ellis Bextor

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
