Chin Up

“Ordinary riches can be stolen, real riches cannot. In your soul are infinitely precious things that cannot be taken from you.”
Sometimes it seems life conspires against you. Sometimes it feels like everything is not going as planned. This is my mental reminder to keep my chin up! There is no point in sulking over spilt milk. Right?
Chin up, chin up
Everybody loves a happy face
Wear it, share it
It’ll brighten up the darkest place
Twinkle, sparkle
Let a little sunshine in
You’ll be on the right side
Looking at the bright side
Up with your chinny chin chin
Chin up, Chin up
Put a little laughter in your eyes
Brave it, save it
Even though you’re feeling otherwise
Rise up, wise up
Make a little smile begin
You’ll be happy hearted
Once you get it started
Up with your chinny chin chin!
Chin down
You can’t come frowning
Turn around
Starting, clowning
Think sad, your troubles double
Think glad, they burst like bubbles
Chin up, chin up
Every little time your spirits wilt
Chin up, chin up
Give your attitude in upward tilt
Twinkle, sparkle
Make a little fun begin
You’ll be on the right side
Looking at the bright side
Up with your chinny chin
Chin up!
