Woke up and the sun was shining
Rolling meadow and the buzz of a bee
Some would say it’s a fine day
But its all in the way that you see
Dissatisfied and horrified
And all that is implied
You’re inside on the far side of glad
Stay grumpy, life’s bumpy
Oatmeal is lumpy
You’re frumpy and jumpy and sad
Some people see the glass as half full
And they are as happy as clams
Some people see the glass is missing a drop
Consult their bomb shelter diagrams
Dissatisfied and horrified
And all that is implied
You’re inside on the far side of glad
Stay grumpy, life’s bumpy
Oatmeal is lumpy
You’re frumpy and jumpy and sad
We wouldn’t have it any other way
Who needs some polyanna chirping
Better a depressed canary in a coal mine
Who knows where the danger is lurking
Now there was no mushroom cloud up above
And a meteor was not headed for the planet
This circus is gonna keep going
Look out for that pomegranate
Dissatisfied and horrified
And all that is implied
You’re inside on the far side of glad
Stay grumpy, life’s bumpy
Oatmeal is lumpy
You’re frumpy and jumpy and sad
