Sometimes Isn't Always

Written by Fred Rogers | © 1972, Fred M. Rogers

Sometimes I don't feel like combing my hair.
I don't feel like washing my face sometimes.
Sometimes I don't feel like saying "O.K."
But sometimes isn't always.

Sometimes I do feel like combing my hair.
I do feel like washing my face sometimes.
Sometimes I feel like saying "O.K."
But sometimes isn't always.

Sometimes I don't feel like going to bed.
I do feel like getting right up sometimes.
Sometimes I don't feel like wearing my shoes.
But sometimes isn't always.

Sometimes I don't feel like sometimes I do
I feel like I don't like to feel sometimes.
Sometimes I don't and sometimes I do.
But sometimes isn't always.
Isn't always.
Isn't always.


Notes

On Episode 1070, the first time this song was performed, Lady Aberlin sings the following variation on the lyrics:

Sometimes my hair doesn't want to get combed
My face doesn't want to get washed
Sometimes my mouth doesn't want to say yes
But sometimes isn't always
