Fun Yellow and Always Look on the Bright Side, 04FEB

Before the 9 am hour, the radio station plays a favorite Monty Python song “Always Look on the Bright Side of Life” from the “Life of Brian” movie which is both hilarious and religiously-interesting…  Brian (Jesus’ next door neighbor) is caught up in a sweeping messiah-searching plot – and one of my mentor-friends in college was so amazed that I loved the movie – and he was amazed that I wasn’t upset at it, being raised catholic… But seriously, how else do you end a film that shows mass crucifixion? Eric idle is a “happy go lucky” soul destined to die next to Brian…  he gets the whole crucified hillside singing…”always look on the bright side of death….”

The song was perfect on this sunny morning – after I had just finished re-painting touch up work in my kitchen – in “FUN YELLOW” color.  Yes, after 10 years and a great renovation removing the old air-conditioner, I had to re-paint and was so pleased that the paint store still make my kitchen color – Fun Yellow…  yes – I made a re-commitment to this fun and refreshing color which gets soaked in the sun in the morning from 4 huge windows – in the sun the room is warm and is inspiring to be cheery and upbeat…  Yes – with yellow paint specks still on my hand I type this  – and I also put on all the fun yellow clothes I could find – not many – but still fun to remember my re-commitment to FUN.

Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse
When you’re chewing on life’s gristle
Don’t grumble, give a whistle
And this’ll help things turn out for the best…
And…

…always look on the bright side of life… (Whistle)

Always look on the light side of life… (Whistle)

If life seems jolly rotten
There’s something you’ve forgotten
And that’s to laugh and smile and dance and sing
When you’re feeling in the dumps
Don’t be silly chumps
Just purse your lips and whistle
– that’s the thing.
And…always look on the bright side of life… (Whistle)

Come on.

Always look on the right side of life… (Whistle)

For life is quite absurd
And death’s the final word
You must always face the curtain with a bow
Forget about your sin – give the audience a grin
Enjoy it – it’s your last chance anyhow.

So always look on the bright side of death… (Whistle)

a-Just before you draw your terminal breath… (Whistle)

Life’s a piece of $%#%, when you look at it
Life’s a laugh and death’s a joke, it’s true
You’ll see its all a show, keep ’em laughin as you go
Just remember that the last laugh is on you

And… Always look on the bright side of life… (Whistle)

Always look on the right side of life…

C’mon Brian, cheer up

Always look on the bright side of life…

Always look on the bright side of life…

Worse things happen at sea you know.

I mean – what have you got to lose?
You know, you come from nothing – you’re going back to nothing.
What have you lost? Nothing.

Always look on the right side (I mean) of life…

what have you got to lose?
You know, you come from nothing
– you’re going back to nothing.
What have you lost?

Always (Nothing.) look on the right side of life…

Nothing will come from nothing ya know what they say?
Cheer up ya old bugga c’mon give us a grin! There ya go, see!

Always look on the right side of life…
(Cheer up ya old bugga c’mon give us a grin! At same time)

There ya go, see!
