Lazy old sun

What have you done to summertime?

Hiding away

Behind all those misty thunder clouds

I don't mind

To spend my time

Looking for you

For you are my one reality

When I'm dead and gone

Your light will shine eternally

Sunny rain, shine my way

Kiss me with one ray of light from your lazy old sun

You make the rainbows and you make the night disappear

You melt the frost so I won't criticize my sun

When I was young

My world was three foot, seven inch tall

When you were young

There was no world at all

Sunny rain, shine my way

Kiss me with one ray of light from your lazy old sun

Lazy old sun

Lazy old sun

Lazy old sun
