No Pun Intended! Lyrics

Track 1. No Pun Intended!

No Pun Intended!—JULY 1989

[Verse 1]

Woke up on the bright side, shining with the sun,

Life gave me some lemons, so I squeezed out fun.

I’m raising every spirit, that’s my daily lift,

Joy in the present—each moment is a gift.

I’m done with feeling blue, I changed the color scheme,

Now I’m making waves while swimming toward my dream.

I’ve got a sunny outlook, no clouds inside my head,

I’m on a roll—there are butter days ahead.

[Pre-Chorus]

So let the good times grow,

Plant a smile and let it show.

Every laugh can light the way,

We were mint to seize the day.

[Chorus]

No pun intended, but I’m having tons of fun,

I’m feeling unbe-leaf-able beneath the golden sun.

I’m on the write path, with a rhyme around each bend,

No pun intended—let the good vibes never end.

We can taco ’bout the joy that keeps us feeling bright,

Donut worry, everything is gonna be all right.

When the world gets heavy, we’ll rise above the weight,

No pun intended—but today is looking great!

[Verse 2]

I’m taking every chance, ’cause chances make good cents,

Building happy memories without too much expense.

I’m cracking up with friends, we’re egg-cellent as a team,

Serving up some laughter with a side of self-esteem.

We’re moving to the beat, no need to skip a track,

If trouble tries to chase us, we won’t let it hold us back.

We’ll find the silver lining and polish till it gleams,

Because positivity is always in our jeans.

[Bridge]

If you’re feeling low, come "ketchup" with the crew,

There’s always "mushroom" here for every part of you.

You matter more than words could ever truly say,

So "pear" up with some hope and dance the doubt away.

We’ll turn each little setback into one more stepping stone,

Together we’re "a-maize-ing"—you never stand alone!

[Pre-Chorus]

So let the good times grow,

Plant a smile and let it show.

Every laugh can light the way,

We were mint to seize the day.

[Chorus]

No pun intended, but I’m having tons of fun,

I’m feeling unbe-leaf-able beneath the golden sun.

I’m on the write path, with a rhyme around each bend,

No pun intended—let the good vibes never end.

We can taco ’bout the joy that keeps us feeling bright,

Donut worry, everything is gonna be all right.

When the world gets heavy, we’ll rise above the weight,

No pun intended—but today is looking great!

[Final Chorus]

No pun intended, but I’m having tons of fun,

I’m feeling unbe-leaf-able beneath the golden sun.

I’m on the write path, with a rhyme around each bend,

No pun intended—let the good vibes never end.

We can taco ’bout the joy that keeps us feeling bright,

Donut worry, everything is gonna be all right.

When the world gets heavy, we’ll rise above the weight,

Every pun intended—and today is looking great!
