High Hopes


High Hopes
Next time you're found, with your chin on the ground,
There's a lot to be learned,
So look around.
Just what makes that little ol' ant,
Think he'll move that rubber tree plant, (in this case, mango tree plant)
Anyone knows an ant can't move a rubber tree plant.
But he's got High Hopes,
He's got High Hopes,
He's got high apple pie in the sky--hopes,
So any time you're getting low,
'Stead of letting go,
Just remember that ant.
Oops!There goes another rubber tree plant, (..or, mango tree plant)
A problem's just a toy balloon,
They'll be bursting soon,
They're just bound to go 'Pop!'
Oops!There goes another problem, kerplop!
Kerplop!

This is one of the songs which my residential college will be singing for the choir competition. Quite a cute song, yet so meaningful to people who always seem to have loads of problem on their back. I like that picture which I took on the mango tree in front of my house. I didn't know the tree is infested with that longish-thingy creature. It's actually a long shell, and there is a worm carrying it. Imagine seeing this thing move on the tree. It looks wierd. It looks like a snail but I really have no idea what it is.

Beautiful pic :) Battling the inefficiency of UM is almost similar to the ant pushing the mango tree, only harder. May we never lose hope!
