Sunshine, go away today
I don't feel much like dancing
Some man's gone, he tried to run my life
He don't know what he's asking
Well, he tells me I better get in line
I can't hear what he's saying
When I grow up, I'm gonna make it mine
These ain't dues that I've been paying

How much does it cost?
I'll buy it
The time is all we've lost
I'll try it
He can't even run his own life
Be damned if he'll run mine

How much does it cost?
I'll buy it
The time is all we've lost
I'll try it
He can't even run his own life
Be damned if he'll run mine

Working starts to make me wonder where
All that I do is going
He says, "in love and war, all is fair"
He's got cards that he ain't showing

How much does it cost?
I'll buy it
Time is all we've lost
I'll try it
He can't even run his own life
Be damned if he'll run mine

Sunshine, come on back another day
I promise you, I'll be singing
This old world, she's gonna turn around
Brand new bells will be ringing
