Ilana levine - My New Philosophy lyrics

[SALLY, spoken] Oh yeah? That's what you think! [SCHROEDER, spoken] What? [SALLY, spoken] That's my new philosophy. "Oh yeah? That's what you think!" [SCHROEDER, spoken] Well why are you telling me? [SALLY, spoken] What? [SCHROEDER, spoken] Why are you telling me? [SALLY, spoken] "Why are you telling me?" I like it! That's a good philosophy "Why are you telling me?" "Why are you telling me?" (sung) "Why are you telling me?" My new philosophy The teacher gave a "D" on last week's homework! She said, "Miss Sally Brown Your grades are going down" I could have told her— [SCHROEDER] Your new philosophy? [SALLY] My new philosophy (spoken) Miss B? I'm she Look see A "D"? A "D" Well, why are you telling me? (sung) And that's my new philosophy! [SCHROEDER] That's your new philosophy? [SALLY] " Well why are you telling me?" My new philosophy! [SCHROEDER, spoken] That's great, Sally. But I've gotta go practice Chopin's Nocturne in B-Flat Minor [SALLY, spoken] No! I like it! "No!" That's a good philosophy " No! No! No!" [SCHROEDER, spoken] That's your new philosophy, huh? [SALLY, spoken] Yes! I mean "No!" (sung) Just like a busy bee Each new philosophy Can fly from tree to tree And keep me moving! When life's a dizzy maze On alterating days I choose a different phrase! [SCHROEDER] Your new philosophy? [SALLY] My new philosophy! [SCHROEDER] Sally! Some philosophies are simple: "Man does not eat by bread alone." Some philosophies are clear... [SALLY] "Leave your message at the sound of the tone?" [BOTH] Some philosophies pick and choose Deciding what goes in it [SCHROEDER] Some take a lifetime! [SALLY] Mine take a minute! [SCHROEDER, spoken] But Sally, anything that takes only a minute can't be very long lasting. For instance, Beethoven took over two years to complete his brilliant Ninth Symphony... [SALLY, spoken] "No!" [SCHROEDER, spoken] I can't stand it! [SALLY, spoken] "I can't stand it!" I like it! (sung) It's like a gurantee My new philosophy And things are sure to be a whole lot brighter! "Oh yeah? That's what you think!" "Why are you telling me?" "No!" "I can't stand it!" Now life is free and easy Much more philosophy-zy With my brand new— (spoken) You know, someone had said that we should live every day as if it were the last day of our life [LUCY, spoken] Ahh! This is the last day! This is it! I only have twenty-four hours left, help me! Help me! This is the last day! Ahh! [SALLY, spoken] Clearly, some philosophies aren't for all people... (sung) And that's my new philosophy!
