John Wesley Harding - When The Sun Comes Out lyrics

It's been raining for a million years And the weather just won't turn Try to build a fire round your place And the damned logs refuse to burn The braindead have been sitting on their sunbeds Where's heaven for its own sake Lying dead or half-forgotten At the bottom of a bottomless lake But when the sun comes out The world's gonna go crazy Everybody's gonna move their arms about Cos what they believed is turned inside-out When the sun comes out It's been raining since i don't know when We're all in for a big surprise Go to the woods in your dreams tonight And when you awake you won't believe your eyes It's all the rage, it'll make the front page Gotta get the gutter press going down the drain bu*ter melts if you leave it near the window And it's time to try and use a deckchair again But when the sun comes out.... When the sun comes out His pa will be so disappointed To find out his son was double-jointed Some will flounder Some will be anointed The son couldn't wait to do a turn-about It's been raining but it's gonna stop Cats and dogs will shake themselves Time to work, time to pick those hops I gotta go and mend the greenhouse shelves This was meant, well, it's all heaven-sent Go out naked and have no fear One boy spent a little life in torment But now he's grinning from ear to ear Now he's grinning from here to here...
