The beggar man
And the mighty
King
Are only different
In name
For they are treated
just the same
My friends
So be like I
Hold your head up
High
Till you find the
Blue bird of
Happiness
You will find
Greater peace
Of mind
Knowing there's
A blue bird
Of happiness
And when he sings
To you
Though you're
Deep in blue
You will see
A ray of light
Come through
And so remember
This
Life is no abyss
Somewhere there's
A blue bird
Of happiness
The poet with
His pen
The peasant with
His plow
It makes no
Difference
Who you are
lt's all the same
Somehow
The king upon
His throne
The jester
At h is feet
The shop g irl
The actress
And the woman
On the street
lt's a life of smiles
And a life of tears
lt's a life of hopes
And a life of fears
A blinding torrent
Of rain
And a brilliant
Burst of sun
A biting
Tearing pain
And bubbling
Sparkling fun
So no matter what
You have
Don 't envy those
You meet
lt's all the same
lt's in the game
The bitter and
The sweet
And if th ings don 't
Look so cheerful
just show
A little fight
For ev'ry bit
Of darkness
There 's a little
Bit of light
For ev'ry bit of
Hatred
There 's a little bit
Of love
For ev'ry cloudy
Morn ing
There 's a midn ight
Moon above
Life is sweet
Tender and
Complete
Since we found
The blue bird
Of happiness
When it's night
Ev'rything seems
Bright
Since we found
The blue bird
Of happiness
Two hearts that
Beat as one
Neath a new found
Sun
We are in a world
That's just begun
And when our
Youth is gone
Love will linger on
Since we found
The blue bird
Of happiness
