lyrics

The sun comes up the sun goes down
the world spins round and round and round
I get up in the morning get out of bed
rub my eyes and scratch my head
pull on my pants button up my shirt
drink a cup of coffee and go to work
I do the things that are the things that have to be done
and then I go home and down goes the sun

The sun goes down here comes the night
I go to bed and hold my darling tight
I dream I'm crowned the Fool of the Town
dogs are barking birds are flapping round
a fat black fly's lazy buzz
rattles the shutters of my unconsciousness

And I get up in the morning get out of bed
rub my eyes and scratch my head
pull on my pants button up my shirt
drink a cup of coffee and go to work
I don't get too low I don't get too high
sometimes I laugh but I almost never cry
at the end of the day I say good-bye

The sun goes down here comes the night
I go to bed and hold my darling tight
I dream the sky falls down to the ground
and it's so thick you cut it with a knife
to walk five miles takes your whole life

The sun comes up the sun goes down
the world spins round and round and round
and round and round and round
and round
