I Like Life 1970 'Scrooge'

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 02 Dec 2005

I like life, life likes me,
life and I fairly fully agree
Life is fine, life is good,
'specially mine,
which is just as it should be.
I like pouring the wine and why not?
Life's a pleasure that I deny not.
I like life, here and now,
life and I made a mutual vow.
Till I die, life and I
we'll both try to be better somehow.
And if life were a woman
she would be my wife.
Why?
Because I like life.

I like life, life likes me,
I make life a perpetual spree,
eating food, drinking wine,
Thinking who'd like
the privilege to dine me.
I like living the life of pleasure.
Pausing only to take my leisure.
I like songs, I like dance,
I hear music and I'm in a trance.
Tralala, Ooompahpah.
Chances are I shall get up and prance,
where there's music and laughter
happiness is rife.
Why?
Because I like life.
