Oh yeah? That's what you think!
What?
That's my new philosophy
Oh yeah? That's what you think!
Well, why are you telling me?
What?
Why are you telling me?
Why are you telling me?
I like it!
That's a good philosophy
Why are you telling me?
Why are you telling me?
Why are you telling me?
My new philosophy
The teacher gave a D on last week's homework
She said "Miss Sally Brown, your grades are going down"
I could have told her
Your new philosophy? (My new philosophy)
Miss B?
I'm she
Look see, a "D?"
A "D"
Well, why are you telling me?
And that's my new philosophy!
That's your new philosophy
Why are you telling me?
My new philosophy
That's great, Sally, but I've gotta go practice Chopin's Nocturne in B-Flat minor
No!
I like it!
No!
That's a good philosophy
No!
No!
No!
That's your new philosophy, huh?
Yes!
I mean no!
Just like a busy bee
Each new philosophy
Can fly from tree to tree and keep me moving
When life's a dizzy maze
On alternating days
I choose a different phrase
Your new philosophy?
My new philosophy!
Sally!
Some philosophies are simple
"Man does not live by bread alone"
Some philosophies are clear
"Leave your message at the sound of the tone"
Some philosophies pick and choose
Deciding what goes in and
Some take a lifetime
Mine take a minute
But, Sally, anything that takes only a minute can't be very lasting
For instance, Beethoven took over two years to complete his brilliant Ninth Symphony
No!
I can't stand it!
I can't stand it!
I like it!
It's like a guarantee
My new philosophy
And things are sure to be a whole lot brighter
Oh, yeah? That's what you think!
Why are you telling me?
No!
I can't stand it!
Now life is free and easy
Much more philosophy-zy
With my brand new
You know, someone has said that we should live each day as if it were the last day of our life
Ah! This is the last day! This is it!
I only have twenty-four hours left!
Help me! Help me!
This is the last day! Ah!
Clearly, some philosophies aren't for all people
And that's my new philosophy!
