Be Like the Kettle and Sing

Gracie Fields

Lyrics

When all the skies are grey and it's a rainy day

Think of the birdies in spring

When you're up to your neck in hot water

Be like the kettle, and sing.

Tell that umbrella man he's just an also ran

Think of a kid on a swing

When you're up to your neck in hot water

Be like the kettle, and sing.

You'll find that life's always got a funny side

So come over on the sunny side

And wear a great big smile, it makes your life worthwhile

You'll have the world on a string

When you're up to your neck in hot water

Be like the kettle, and sing.

(Musical Break)

When your troubles are boiling over

Consult this recipe

Everybody will be in clover

Happy as can be

When all the skies are grey and it's a rainy day

Think of the birdies in spring

When you're up to your neck in hot water

Be like the kettle, and sing.

Tell that umbrella man he's just an also ran

Think of a kid on a swing

When you're up to your neck in hot water

Be like the kettle, and sing.

You'll find that life's always got a funny side

So come over on the sunny side

And wear a great big smile, it makes your life worthwhile

You'll have the world on a string

When you're up to your neck in hot water

Be like the kettle, and sing.
