What Are We Here For?

Lyrics

[Verse] The sea is bright blue The heavens, light blue Green things are growing South wind is blowing All nature's colors are unfurled Oh, see the sunbeams How every one beams The crickets call us The birds enthrall us This is a pretty darn good world Never can understand People who reprimand You when they hear laughter Pity the Gloomy Gus Speaking in manner thus "You will suffer after" [Chorus] What are we here for? What are we here for? I'd like to know If not to dance and to play? If not to laugh and be gay? What is the spring for? What do birds sing for? Down here below If not to brighten the way As on we go? We all are actors in a gorgeous setting It's full of magic No use in getting Tragic If we can't be full Of a joy gleeful All through the day What are we here for Anyway? What are we here for? What are we here for? I'd like to know If not to dance and to play? If not to laugh and be gay? What is the spring for? What do birds sing for? Down here below If not to brighten the way As on we go? We all are actors in a gorgeous setting It's full of magic No use in getting Tragic If we can't be full Of a joy gleeful All through the day What are we here for Anyway? Anyway?
