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
