no sun

Well

Where’d the sun go?

Shading over holidays

I crave the rays

Get soaked and swallowed away

For forty days,

That I’ve been searching for the sun

I’m turning over every sofa cushion

But I’m only finding crumbs,

But my search ain’t done

We need the sun to thrive

And stay alive, not hide

So our crops don’t die

And for the kids to stop crying

And what the fuck are we gonna do

With the influx of sun dials

People are walking around like zombies

Begging for a piece of light

To be shed on the earth

Just like Ghandi

Confusing am and pm

Worse than blondes be,

With no sun

We’d be cooler than Fonz be

Ehhhhhhhhh!!!

The days are colder

Seem shorter

And pass

With more boredom

There’s no more stickball in the streets

It switched to Texas hold’em

You got to listen

To what I told them

I forewarned them,

Take advantage

Of the hand you’re dealt

And don’t fold them

Before, it’s long gone and stolen

Cause, none of us

Want to know what its like

Living with no sun

Sunrise and sunsets forget it

It’ll all be covered over by clouds

So don’t sweat it

In fact, you’ll have to run a track

Just to sweat it

And you can credit it

To being indebted to a benefit

We got all the money in the world

And were buying up bombs

Strapping them to soldiers

And sending them out

With nuclear arms

To go and blow up Sadam

This puppet strings us along

But for how long is the question

Let’s torch this puppet

Before it puts a hex on us

And steals the sun

From the rest of us

Either way we’re killing ourselves

And if we don’t stand up

We’ll soon be living in hell

Where the sun don’t shine

And fears instilled in our minds

Implanted with microchips

Just to keep us in line

Keep us in line,

Right now

Children filling sweatshops

Working for a dime

And everyday we allow this

We are committing a crime

You’d think someone in power

Would work to end this

But no one

This is why we’re living a life-

With no sun
