Over The Hump

I can tell by the plans we're making, theres not much more to this dump
The world keeps spinnin', so I keep grinnin', to get me out of this slump
And I try, and I try, to reach the otherside as I wipe the muck from my eyes
life will let you down so easy
but my mind wont let me drown
and I find, and I find, the only remedy
is a smile wide and an open mind
so ill take anything worth taking to get me over the hump

An illusion of stylin' as things keep piling, I got no room on my plate
and ill keep smiling as my love's compiling
surely there's more to my fate

And I try, and I try, to go with the rising tide
but I feel I sink every time
I was never promised, life would be easy
although the thought has crossed my mind
I find, and I find, my only remedy is a smile wide and an open mind
cuz ill shake anything worth shaking to get me over the hump.

I can tell by the movers we're making im gonna get over the hump
everything we're doing has got me thinking maybe this ain't such a dump
I tried and I tried, to see the otherside, turns out I must be homeward bound
and I find, and I find, the only remedy
is keeping all you lovely folks around

And life, wont let me down so easy
so, who cares if i've been wrong
cuz ill keep taking whats worth taking if it gets me over the hump
