NaySayers/The Bright Side
Aryn Michelle 2012
If everybody’s telling you that the world is gray and it’ll never change
and you can’t turn on the evening news without a hopeless gaze and a big heartache
let’s write a better song, and dream a bigger dream
you knew all along, that the masterpiece can’t be misery
So cheer up sunshine, it ain’t as bad as they’re sayin’, so find the bright side
and tune out, sweet thang, all that noise from nay-sayers, they don’t know nothing at all, all
they got more junk than the mall, mall
If anybody’s dragging you down with bitter pills and empty shells
if you refuse to wait around for a magic spell or a wishing well
let’s write a better song, and dream a bigger dream
you knew all along, that the masterpiece can’t be misery
So cheer up sunshine, it ain’t as bad as they’re sayin’, so find the bright side
and tune out, sweet thang, all that noise from nay-sayers, they don’t know nothing at all, all
they got more junk than the mall, mall
‘Cause who ever got uplifted by a negative word?
and who ever made a difference without working through some resistance?
So cheer up sunshine, it ain’t as bad as they’re sayin’, so find the bright side
and tune out, sweet thang, all that noise from nay-sayers, they don’t know nothing at all, all
they got more junk than the mall, mall
