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 ol’ 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 getting’ low,
’Stead of lettin’ go,
Just remember that ant.
Oops! There goes another rubber tree plant.
Oops! 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 ol’ 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 any time you’re feelin’ bad,
’Stead of feelin’ sad,
Just remember that ram.
Oops! There goes a billion kilowatt dam.
Oops! There goes a billion kilowatt dam.

So keep your high hopes,
Keep your high hopes;
Keep those high apple pie in the sky hopes.

A problem’s just a toy balloon,
They’ll be bursting soon,
They’re just bound to go “Pop!”
Oops! There goes another problem, kerplop!
Oops! There goes another problem, kerplop!

Kerplop!
