"I Like Life" by Leslie Bricusse
I like life! Life likes me!
Life and I fairly fully agree
Life is fine! Life is good!
'Specially mine which is just as it should be!
I like pouring the wine and why not?
Life's a pleasure that I deny not
I like life here and now
Life and I made a mutual vow
Till I die, life and I
We'll both try to be better somehow
And if life were a woman she would be my wife
Why? Because I like life!
I like life, life likes me
I make life a perpetual spree
Eating food, drinking wine
Thinking who'd like the privilege to dine me
I like drinking the drink I'm drinking
I like thinking the thoughts I'm thinking
I like songs, I like dance
I hear music and I'm in a trance
Tra la la! Oompapah!
Chances are we shall get up and prance
Where there's music and laughter happiness is rife
Why? Because I like life!
