I have been missing this song! Here are the lyrics:
Every bursted bubble has a glory!
Each abysmal failure makes a point!
Every glowing path that goes astray,
Shows you how to find a better way.
So every time you stumble never grumble.
Next time you'll bumble even less!
For up from the ashes, up from the ashes, grow the roses of success!
Grow the roses!
Grow the roses!
Grow the roses of success!
Oh yes!
Grow the roses!
Those rosy roses!
From the ashes of disaster grow the roses of success!
For every big mistake you make be grateful!
Here, here!
That mistake you'll never make again!
No sir!
Every shiny dream that fades and dies,
Generates the steam for two more tries!
There's magic in the wake of a fiasco!
Correct!
It gives you that chance to second guess!
Oh yes!
Then up from the ashes, up from the ashes grow the roses of success!
Grow the roses!
Grow the roses!
Grow the roses of success!
Grow the roses!
Those rosy roses!
From the ashes of disaster grow the roses of success!
Disaster didn't stymie Louis Pasteur!
No sir!
Edison took years to see the light!
Right!
Alexander Graham knew failure well; he took a lot of knocks to ring that
bell!
So when it gets distressing it's a blessing!
Onward and upward you must press!
Yes, Yes!
Till up from the ashes, up from the ashes grow the roses of success.

I don't know this song. Where's it come from?
It's from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, my older brother's favorite movie. We have watched it, and continue to watch it, multiple times every day at home (my older brother is severely handicapped, so he can get away with this, LOL). I used to hate that movie a lot, but I really like this particular song.
Ah, I see.
Last time I watched Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, I ate a bunch of chocolate-covered raisins. That night, I came down with the stomach flu. I'm willing to wager that was over a decade ago, and I haven't really eaten chocolate-covered raisins since.
Incidentally, I think that was also the last time I watched that movie....
Reminds me of what happened the night after I read your comment, Schmetterling.
