Lyrics:



Let me tell you something about me now

I’m very wary when I go out

I look both ways six times before I cross the street

I need a meeting just to put shoes on my feet



And I assume the best but always planning for the very worst

I like my numbers odd, my Venmo balance even

And my bad luck reversed



I’m a cautious optimistic

Not convinced, just realistic

A cautious optimistic

Hope for the best

Don’t wanna risk it



Don’t wanna risk it

Cautious optimistic

Don’t wanna risk it



I always chew my food before I eat it

I need a memo for a memo just to read it

I wash my hands and then I rinse repeat it

I brush my teeth each night so I don’t get cavities

And I always bring a jacket just in case I freeze



I’m a cautious optimistic

Not convinced, just realistic

A cautious optimistic

Hope for the best

Don’t wanna risk it

Don’t wanna risk it



I always use my hands to make the symbol for a sunny day

Too scared to step out on the ice

I’ll save it for somebody brave

I accept most things are out of my control

The only way through

Is keeping it true



I’m a cautious optimistic

Not convinced, just realistic

A cautious optimistic

Hope for the best

Don’t wanna risk it

Don’t wanna risk it



Don’t wanna risk it

Cautious optimistic

Don’t wanna risk it
