Hopey Dopey Doo

Hope is the notion to swim across the ocean and pray you won't drown when it gets thick and brown Hope is that dope that get you hooked when you're goose is cooked and you’re up against the ropes Hope things are going well and Hope we won't panic I've got my beachfront land And the best seat on the Titanic! Hope I get paid hope I get laid Hope we get to grope In the cool grassy shade Hope I don't mope If she says nope Hope for no isotopes In my cantaloupe Hope for one, hope for two hoping is the dopiest thing to do Hope, I sure hope we don’t get screwed Mostly I hope there’s hope for you You hope to God hope to Hope Hope the Pope doesn't rope-a-dope Hope in one hand, whizz in the other hope that other hand ain’t the last strand of your brother Hope is what you’re smoking Hope is what you’re shooting Hope is what you’re doing When you should be executing Hope you have a plan Hope you follow through Hope you’re the (wo-)man Who doesn’t hope in lieu Hope your slope is up Hope your time is long Hope you fill your cup Hope you finish strong 8/16/16
