High Hopes
Next time your found, with your chin on the ground
There a lot to be learned, so look around
Just what makes that little old ant
Think he'll move that rubber tree plant
Anyone knows an ant, can't
Move a rubber tree plant
But he's got high hopes, he's got high hopes
He's got high apple pie, in the sky hopes
So any time your gettin' low
'Stead of lettin' go
Just remember that ant
Oops there goes another rubber tree plant
(Whoops there goes another rubber tree plant)
Whoops there goes another rubber tree plant
When troubles call, and your back's to the wall
There a lot to be learned, that wall could fall
(could a fall, could a fall, could a fall)
Once there was a silly old ram
Thought he'd punch a hole in a dam
No one could make that ram, scram
He kept buttin' that dam
'Cause he had high hopes, he had high hopes
He had high apple pie, in the sky hopes
So any time your feelin' bad
'stead of feelin' sad
Just remember that ram
Oops there goes a billion kilowatt dam
(Oops there goes a billion kilowatt dam)
Oops there goes a billion kilowatt dam
so keep your high hopes, keep your high hopes
keep those high apple pie, in the sky hopes
The problems just a toy balloon
They'll be bursting soon
they're just bound to go pop
Whoops there goes another problem, ker-plop
Whoops there goes another problem, ker-plop
Ker-plop
There a lot to be learned, so look around
Just what makes that little old ant
Think he'll move that rubber tree plant
Anyone knows an ant, can't
Move a rubber tree plant
But he's got high hopes, he's got high hopes
He's got high apple pie, in the sky hopes
So any time your gettin' low
'Stead of lettin' go
Just remember that ant
Oops there goes another rubber tree plant
(Whoops there goes another rubber tree plant)
Whoops there goes another rubber tree plant
When troubles call, and your back's to the wall
There a lot to be learned, that wall could fall
(could a fall, could a fall, could a fall)
Once there was a silly old ram
Thought he'd punch a hole in a dam
No one could make that ram, scram
He kept buttin' that dam
'Cause he had high hopes, he had high hopes
He had high apple pie, in the sky hopes
So any time your feelin' bad
'stead of feelin' sad
Just remember that ram
Oops there goes a billion kilowatt dam
(Oops there goes a billion kilowatt dam)
Oops there goes a billion kilowatt dam
so keep your high hopes, keep your high hopes
keep those high apple pie, in the sky hopes
The problems just a toy balloon
They'll be bursting soon
they're just bound to go pop
Whoops there goes another problem, ker-plop
Whoops there goes another problem, ker-plop
Ker-plop
