Lyrics

MY ROSE COLORED GLASSES
I listen to some show on the radio I hear those children playing games
I go outside take a walk in the park - then I get home real early before it?s dark
I sit back relax and close my eyes - I let my mind wander ? boy how the time flies
I think of a happy thought and give thanks for all I?ve got
?Cause in this strange, so damn insane world we live in I know it?ll be alright
?Cause I?ve got Rose Colored Glasses covering my eyes
Rose Colored Glasses covering my eyes
They block out misfortune and see sunny skies
You can usually find me here in this dreamland of mine
With my Rose Colored Glasses ? They suit me just fine
Late at night sometimes I stare at the moon
And still the mind keeps wandering ? A bit too confusing ? becomes so amusing
Taking it slow is all you gotta do ? ?Cause saving the world ain?t the job for you
So let?s think of a happy thought and give thanks for all we?ve got
?Cause in this strange, so damn insane world we live in I know it?ll be alright
?Cause I?ve got Rose Colored Glasses covering my eyes
Rose Colored Glasses covering my eyes
They block out misfortune and see sunny skies
You can usually find me here in this dreamland of mine
With my Rose Colored Glasses ? They suit me just fine
(and now?s the time to take it man)
So let?s think of a happy thought and give thanks for all we?ve got
?Cause in this strange, so damn insane world we live in I know it?ll be alright
?Cause I?ve got Rose Colored Glasses covering my eyes
They block out misfortune and they don?t criticize
Not one single soul ?cause I realize
That my Rose Colored Glasses??they are so divine
