The world needs a little
Good news everyday
Just look on the bright side
It's better that way
Kick up your heels
Say howdy my friends
Just smile at a stranger
Your woes you'll transcend
On the verge of disaster
Show them there's hope
To look at this world
Through a much larger scope
It may be contagious
You'll start a new trend
Who knows it might happen
You'll make some new friends
I know that the cynics
Will laugh and they'll scoff
To think that us humans
Past sins we can doff
We've got to start somewhere
So why not right now
The world will stop fighting
And wars disavow
Just call me a dreamer
I welcome that name
Don't need any medals
No fortune or fame
The best compensation
A world filled with joy
Where everyone's happy
And spirits are buoyed
We can't let our efforts
Just end up in vain
We must see a world
Where happiness reigns
It's crucial for us
To succeed in this quest
Else mankind will perish
My case I do rest
We like you the way you are
You can be funny
Serious
Naughty
Bored
Kind
Or cruel
Be whatever you are, love
Tout the horn
If you feel like it
Sing
Dance
Scream
What do you feel like doing?
Do you feel like running toward the sky?
Be our guest
Let us know when you get there, okay?
Remember no one can stop you
Only you can stop you
And God
So run
Cheer
Be awesome
Crazy
Not so awesome
Down
Whatever it is
Just be
You only live once
And this is the one
So kick up your heels
And grab whatever
And go
Be wild
Be free
Time is on your side
You have tomorrow
Live for today
Don’t let anything stop you, okay?
The world needs a little
Good news everyday
Just look on the bright side
It's better that way
Kick up your heels
Say howdy my friends
Just smile at a stranger
Your woes you'll transcend
On the verge of disaster

Contrary to what the naysayers say
Happy is definitely a choice
So pay no attention to all those people
Kick up your heels and rejoice
This old world's been around forever
It's here for some time to come
Might as well be happy, enjoy your stay
Even if you fall on your bum
Now which scenario is more appealing
Singing and waking up with a smile
Or grumbling and always moping around
Time to stop acting like a child
There are no free passes in this here life
Must earn your trip up to Heaven
So jump on that happiness bandwagon
Contentment will be yours till the end

The songbirds chirp, praising the sun,
nestled in the leaves of the trees:
while the air is abuzz with bees.
Subduing Spring, Summer has won
with relentless sweltering heat:
while peonies bloom, smelling sweet.
Spring's short days and long nights are done
and in Summer's extended light
hatchlings fledge: preparing for flight.
It is time to go for a run,
go swimming, or tan on the beach:
while keeping sunscreen within reach.
Kick up your heels, and have some fun
partake in a game of baseball,
or go camping, it'll soon be Fall.
The songbirds chirp, praising the sun:
subduing Spring; Summer has won.
Spring's short days and long nights are done.
It is time to go for a run:
Kick up your heels and have some fun.
Time for a happy-go-lucky poem
No more doom and gloom
There's enough of that stuff going around
Life's just a big cartoon
Live and laugh and have a ball
Nothing's really gonna change
So kick up your heels and sing out loud
Though some may think you're deranged
Who knows it could be contagious
Soon the whole world will be having a ball
Imagine, you could be the reason, my friend
For peace to come to us all
Am I a dreamer, guess you could say that
Might as well try it, whatcha think
Nothing else has worked up until now
Let's try before we're right on the brink
So kick up your heels and dance around
Others will follow your lead
All the world is waiting for is someone
To step forward and plant the seed
No more doom and gloom!!!

Wow, for the Fall Harvest Oktoberfest Festival in my city!
Entertainment will be Oomph Polka Party tunes and many other bands.
We will try our luck at games and contests . . .
Inside tents all will gather
Lifting mugs of suds
Lifting delicious Oktoberfest sausages to our lips.
Put on your dancing shoes
And party with the many bands
Rock and Roll and Country too . . .
Take your partner- round and round you will go
Yell at the top of your lungs, its okay!
Leap and hop and
In each other arms snuggle up for a waltzy waltz . . .
Kick up your heels and have a good time, cause
Events are happening all over the city.
Take a ride with me, lets
Hop on a bus to a different pub
Enjoy the festival, but
Remember don't drink and drive
Everybody, lets toast a mug of brew, hurray . . .
Shout and stomp your feet in tune !
Never mind the headache to come
(On your back you will be moaning . . . .)
Take my hand and lets go
Oktoberfest is a day of fun, fun, fun,
Make it special- make it great!
On your toes lets do a jig
Remember we still need to do the scavenger hunt
REGRETS!! Forget all that
On this Fall Harvest Oktoberfest
We'll party like there's no tomorrow!
