Bright Side of Life

Anyone have the words to Monty Python’s song “Always Look on the Bright Side of Life” sung at the closing to the “Life of Brian” movie?


“They’re coming to take me away ha-ha, ho-ho, hee-hee, to the funny farm where life is beautiful all the time… :)” - Napoleon IV

No guarantees that this is absolutely correct, but nothing jumped out at me.


I lead a boring life of relative unimportance. Really.

some things in life are bad,
they can really make you mad.
Other things just make you swear and curse.

When you’re chewing on life’s gristle,
don’t grumble, give a whistle,
and this’ll help things turn out for the best,
and…

Always look on the bright side of life.
[whistling]
Always look on the light side of life.
[whistling]

If life seems jolly rotten,
There’s something you’ve forgotten,
And that’s to laugh and smile and dance and sing.
When you’re feeling in the dumps,
Don’t be silly chumps.
Just purse your lips and whistle. That’s the thing.
And…

Always look on the bright side of life.
[whistling]
Always look on the right side of life,
[whistling]

For life is quite absurd
And death’s the final word.
You must always face the curtain with a bow.
Forget about your sin.
Give the audience a grin.
Enjoy it. It’s your last chance, anyhow.
So,…

Always look on the bright side of death,
[whistling]
Just before you draw your terminal breath.
[whistling]

Life’s a piece of shit,
When you look at it.
Life’s a laugh and death’s a joke. It’s true.
You’ll see it’s all a show.
Keep 'em laughing as you go.
Just remember that the last laugh is on you.
And…

Always look on the bright sidee of life
[whistle]

repeat until the end of the song.

I think we all were, at the same time, which is why we have four responses with the same
