People are queer they're always crowing scrambling and rushing about;

Why don't they stop someday address themselves this way

Why are we here Where are we going It's time that we found out

We're not here to stay; we're on a short holiday

Life is just a bowl of cherries

Don't be so serious; life's too mysterious

You work you save you worry so

But you can't take your dough when you go go go

So keep repeating it's the berries

The strongest oak must fall

The sweet things in life to you were just loaned

So how can you lose what you've never owned

Life is just a bowl of cherries

So live and laugh at it all

Life is just a bowl of cherries

Don't be so serious; life's too mysterious

You work you save you worry so

But you can't take your dough when you go go go

So keep repeating it's the berries

The strongest oak must fall

The sweet things in life to you were just loaned

So how can you lose what you've never owned

Life is just a bowl of cherries

So live love count your lucky stars above

Live and love and laugh at it all
