Life Is Just a Bowl of Cherries - Debbie Reynolds

People are queer, they’re always crowing, scrambling and rushing about

Why don’t they stop someday, address themselves this way?

Why are we here?

Where are we going?

It’s time that we found out

We’re not here to stay;

we’re on a short holiday

Life is just a bowl of cherries

Don’t take it serious;

it’s too mysterious

You work, you save, you worry so

But you can’t take your dough when you go, go, go

So keep repeating it’s the berries

The strongest oak must fall

The sweet things in life, to you were just loaned

So how can you lose what you’ve never owned?

Life is just a bowl of cherries

So live and laugh at it all

Life is just a bowl of cherries

Don’t take it serious;

it’s too mysterious

At eight each morning I have got a date

To take my plunge 'round the Empire State

You’ll admit it’s not the berries

In a building that’s so tall

There’s a guy in the show, the girls love to kiss

Get thousands a week just for crooning like this

Life is just a bowl of… aw, nuts!

So live and laugh at it all!
