That's a good philosophy
Why are you tellin' me
Why are you tellin' me
Why are you tellin' me
My new philosophy
That teacher gave a D on
last week's homework
She said Miss Sally Brown
Your grades are going down
I could have told her
Your new philosophy
My new philosophy
Miss B
I'm she
Look see
A D
A D
Well why are tellin' me
And that's my new philosophy
That's your new philosophy
Why are you tellin' me
My new philosophy
That's great Sally but
I've gotta go practice Chopin's
Nocturne in B-flat minor
No
I like it
No
That's a good philosophy
No no no
That's your new
philosophy huh
Yes
I mean no
Just like a busy bee
Each new philosophy
Can fly from tree to tree
and keep me moving
When life's a dizzy maze
on alternating days
I choose a different phrase
Your new philosophy
My new philosophy
Sally
Some philosophies are simple
Man does not live by
bread alone
Some philosophies are clear
Leave your message at the
sound of the tone
Some philosophies
pick and choose
Deciding what goes in it
Some take a lifetime
Mine take a minute
But Sally
AnyThing that takes only a
minute can't be very lasting
For instance
Beethoven took over two years
to complete his brilliant
Ninth Symphony
No
I can't stand it
I can't stand it
I like it
It's like a guarantee
My new philosophy
And things are sure to be
a whole lot brighter
Oh yeah
That's what you think
Why are you tellin' me
No
I can't stand it
Now life is free and easy
Much more philosophy-zy
With my brand new
You know someone had said
that we should live each day
as if it were the last day
of our life
Aaugh this is the last day
This is it
I've only got twenty-four
hours left
Help me
Help me
This is the last day
Aaugh
Clearly some philosophies
aren't for all people
And that's my new philosophy
