Optimistic - The Friendly Indians

And I get down, upon my knees

To please — you still won’t come around.

You’re only happy with my feet stuck to the ground.

Down… down… down

Hey I don’t wanna talk about it,

I think I’d rather laugh around it,

But how can you mock me when you know you want me?

Might be a little too simplistic,

Perhaps I’m bein' optimistic,

But I gotta think that I am right!

Lucky town, nothing changes — the same faces

Hang around.

Only satisfied with their feet tied to the ground.

Down… down… down

Hey I don’t wanna argue for it,

I think I’d rather just ignore it,

But how do you criticize when you know I’m perfect?

Might be a little too simplistic,

Perhaps I’m just optimistic,

But I got a feelin' I know you will want me,

You will need me,

You will see me,

Then believe me right now!

I don’t wanna talk about it,

I think I’d rather laugh around it,

But how do you hate me when you know you love me?

Might be a little too simplistic,

Perhaps I’m bein' optimistic,

But I gotta think that I am right!

I am right…

That I am right…

That I am right!

That I am right…
