Lyrics
How many times have you woken up and prayed for the rain?
How many times have you seen the papers, apportion the blame?
Who gets to say?
Who gets the work and who gets to pray?
I was always told at school
Everybody should get the same
How many times have you been told
If you don't ask, you don't get?
How many liars have taken your money
Your mother said you shouldn't bet?
Who has the fun?
Is it always the man with the gun?
Someone must have told him, "If you work too hard, you could sweat"
There's always the sun (always the sun)
There's always the sun
Always, always (always the sun)
How many times have the weathermen told you stories that made you laugh?
You know it's not unlike the politician and the leaders, when they do things by half
But who has the job
Of pushing the knob?
That sort of responsibility
You draw straws for if you're mad enough
There's always the sun (always the sun)
There's always the sun
Always, always (always the sun)
There's always the sun (always the sun)
There's always the sun
Always, always (always the sun)
There's always the sun (always the sun)
There's always the sun
Always, always (always the sun)
There's always the sun (always the sun)
There's always the sun
Always, always (always the sun)
Always the sun
Always the sun
There's always the sun (always the sun)
There's always the sun
Always, always (always the sun)
