Lyrics:

Hey, ain't life wonderful
Wonderful, wonderful
Wonderful, wonderful
Wonderful, wonderful
Isn't it wonderful
Wonderful, wonderful
Wonderful, wonderful
Wonderful, wonderful
So Wonderful, wonderful
Isn't everything wonderful
Isn't it wonderful now


I close my eyes when I get too sad
I think thoughts that I know are bad
Close my eyes and I count to ten
Hope it's over when I open them

I want the things that I had before
Like a Star Wars poster on my bedroom door
I wish I could count to ten
Make everything be wonderful again

Hold my mom and I hold my dad
Can't figure out why they get so mad
Hear them scream, I hear them fight
They say bad words and make me want to cry

Close my eyes when I go to bed and I
Dream of angels who make me smile
I feel better when I hear them say
Everything will be wonderful some day

Promises mean everything when you're little
And the world is so big
I just don't understand how
You can smile with all those tears in your eye
And tell me everything is wonderful now

Na na nana na na na
Na na nana na na na
Na na nana na na na
Please don't tell me everthing is wonderful now
Na na nana na na na

Go to school and I run and play
I tell the kids that it's all ok
I laugh a lot so my friends wont know
But when the bell rings I just don't want to go home

Go in my room and I close my eyes
I make believe I have a new life
I don't believe you when you say
Everything will be wonderful some day

Promises mean everything when you're little
And the world is so big (so big)
I just don't understand how
You can smile with all those tears in your eye
When you tell me everything is wonderful now

Na na nana na na na, no
Na na nana na na na, no
I don't want to hear you tell me everything is wonderful now
Na na nana na na na, no
Na na nana na na na, no
I don't want to hear you tell me everything is wonderful now

I don't to hear you say that I will understand some day
No no no no no no no
I don't want to hear you say both have grown in a different way
No no no no no no no

No I don't want to meet your friend
I don't want to start over again
I just want my life to be the same
Just like it used to be

Somedays I hate everything
And I hate everything
Everyone and everything
Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now
Na na nana na na na
Na na nana na na na
Na na nana na na na
Na na nana na na na, no

I don't want to hear you tell me everything is wonderful now
Na na nana na na na
Na na nana na na na
Na na nana na na na

Please don't tell me everything is wonderful now
Na na nana na na na
Na na nana na na na
Na na nana na na na

Ooh yeah
Yeah, everything is wonderful now
Na na nana na na na
Na na nana na na na
Na na nana na na na

Ooh yeah, everything is wonderful now
