Lyrics Optimistic - The Friendly Indians

Optimistic

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…
