[00:31.20] When you meet someone
[00:37.58] who inspires your worst angry voice
[00:41.20] Just retreat-happiness is always a much better choice
[00:49.14] Why chargin?
[00:50.58] If you're in-
[00:52.64] Sisting on the last word
[00:54.64] It's quite over-rated
[00:57.58] Like our mothers taught:
[01:00.39] Unkind words we just ought not to
[01:04.08]
[01:06.59] Hey, everything you're saying is so contra-bliss
[01:14.59] Okay, I think I can see where you're going with this
[01:22.40] True, we have had our differences there all along
[01:29.47] But who, who of us can say he has never been wrong?
[01:38.03] Like the sky, this is all shadows and light
[01:46.03] I guess I would rather be happy than right
[01:56.72] rather be happy than right
[02:25.16] Every day life is like a mixture of sugar and sand
[02:34.03] On the way we are given lessons we misunderstand
[02:41.15] If I fail
[02:42.72] To no avail
[02:44.66] Still I always try to be
[02:46.78] Like the wise ant who
[02:49.60] Takes the sugar home
[02:52.10] And just leaves the sand alone
[02:56.66]
[02:58.53] Hey, everything you're saying is so contra-bliss
[03:06.47] Okay, I think I can see where you're going with this
[03:14.41] True, we have had our differences there all along
[03:20.28] But who, who of us can say he has never been wrong?
[03:29.97] Like the sky, this is all shadows and light
[03:38.03] I guess I would rather be happy than right
[03:48.66] rather be happy than right
