george m. cohan - life's a funny proposition after all كلمات الأغنية

(verse 1)
did you ever sit and ponder
sit and wonder, sit and think
why we’re here and what this life is all about?
it’s a problem that has driven
many brainy men to drink
it’s the weirdest thing they’ve tried to figure out
about a thousand diff’rent theories
all the scientists can show
but never yet have proved a reason why
with all we’ve thought
and all we’re taught
why all we seem to know
is we’re born, live a while, then we die

(chorus 1)
life’s a very funny proposition after all
imagination, jealousy, hypocrisy and all
three meals a day
a whole lot to say;
when you haven’t got the coin, you’re always in the way
ev’rybody’s fighting as we wend our way along
ev’ry fellow claims the other fellow’s in the wrong;
hurried and worried
until we’re buried
and there’s no curtain call
life’s a very funny proposition after all
(verse 2)
when all things are coming easy
and when luck is with a man
why then life to him is sunshine ev’rywhere;
then the fates blow rather breezy
they quite upset a plan
then he’ll cry that life’s a burden hard to bear
though today may be a day of smiles, tomorrow’s still in doubt
and what brings me joy, may bring you care and woe;
we’re born to die, but don’t know why, or what it’s all about
and the more we try to learn the less we know

(chorus 2)
life’s a very funny proposition, you can bet
and no one’s ever solved the problem properly as yet
young for a day
then old and gray;
like the rose that buds and blooms and fades and falls away
losing health
to gain our wealth
as through this dream we tour
ev’rything’s a guess and nothing’s absolutely sure;
battles exciting and fates we’re fighting until the curtain falls
life’s a very funny proposition after all
