UMA CANÇÃOZINHA PARA ANIMAR

Na voz, perdão, na Voz daquele que a criou, nos idos de 1959 (para o filme de Frank Capra, "Tristezas Não Pagam Dívidas"). Ladies and gentlemen, Frank Sinatra.

next time you're found with your chin on the ground
there's a lot to be learned
so look around

just what makes that little old ant
think he'll move that rubber tree plant
anyone knows an ant
can't
move a rubber tree plant

but he's got
high hopes
he's got
high hopes
he's got
high apple pie
in the sky
hopes

so any time you're gettin' low
'stead of lettin' go
just remember that ant

whoops, there goes another rubber tree plant

when troubles call and your back's to the wall
there's a lot to be learned
that wall could fall

once there was a silly old ram
thought he'd punch a hole in a dam
no one could make that ram
scram
he kept buttin' that dam

'cause he had
high hopes
he had
high hopes
he had
high apple pie
in the sky
hopes

so anytime you're feelin' bad
'stead of feelin' sad
just remember that ram

whoops, there goes a billion kilowatt dam

all problems just a toy balloon
they'll be bursted soon
they're just bound to go pop

whoops, there goes another problem kerplop

-- Sammy Cahn & James van Heusen para Frank Sinatra, "High Hopes" (in No One Cares, Capitol, 1959)
