<br>

Lyrics by JOHNNY MERCER - Music by HARRY WARREN<br>

Annie and Ensemble:<br>

Sing tra la la la la la la la,<br>

The sun may never, never shine,<br>

But tra la la la la la la la,<br>

Somewhere the weather's fine.<br>

<br>

Long ago, one fine day,<br>

Some philosopher was heard to say,<br>

"There's a sunny side to ev'ry situation,"<br>

And the same applies to you,<br>

His philosophy's still true,<br>

There's a funny side to ev'ry situation.<br>

<br>

You've no dough, so relax,<br>

You don't have to pay an income tax.<br>

You've no job so just pretend it's your vacation.<br>

Should the landlord raise your rent<br>

Hum your nose and paint your tent<br>

Ev'ry situation has a sunny side.<br>

<br>

Sing tra la la la la la la la,<br>

The sun may never, never shine,<br>

But tra la la la la la la la,<br>

Somewhere the weather's fine.<br>

<br>

With no bonds and no stocks<br>

In your little safe deposit box,<br>

You can never be affected by inflation.<br>

When your car is out of gas,<br>

Then no red lights can you pass,<br>

Ev'ry situation has a sunny side.<br>

Ev'ry situation has a sunny side.<br>

<br>

Additional Verse:<br>

Though some eggs are dark outside,<br>

They look diff'rent when they're fried,<br>

Ev'ry situation has a sunny side.<br>

<br>

When it rains, when it pours,<br>

Think how nice it is to stay indoors,<br>

There's a sunny side of ev'ry situation.<br>

When your rent is overdue,<br>

Let the landlord fret for you,<br>

There's a funny side to ev'ry situation.<br>

<br>

When you broke, through and through,<br>

Folks can't borrow anything from you,<br>

That is what we call the law of compensation.<br>

When it's rainin' cats and dogs,<br>

Think how swell it is for frogs,<br>

Ev'ry situation has a sunny side.<br>

<br>

When you lose all you own<br>

And they take away your telephone,<br>

And you feel that you are out of circulation,<br>

Say, you're lucky after all,<br>

Those insurance men can't call,<br>

Ev'ry situation has a sunny side.<br>
