Always The Sun - Hugh Cornwell, Steve Lawrence, Windsor McGilvray

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 to work and gets to play?

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 lads have taken your money?

Your mother said you shouldn’t bet

And who has the fun?

Is it always a man with a gun?

Someone must have told you if you work too hard you can sweat?

There’s always the sun (Always the sun)

Always the sun

Always, always, always the sun

How many times the weathermen told you stories that made you laugh?

You know its not unlike the politicians and the leaders when they do things by

halves

Well, who gets the job?

Of pushing the knob

That’s what responsibility you draw straws for if you’re mad enough

There’s always the sun (Always the sun)

Always the sun

Always, always, always the sun

There’s always the sun (Always the sun)

Always the sun

Always, always, always the sun

There’s always the sun (Always the sun)

Always the sun

Always, always, always the sun

There’s always the sun (Always the sun)

Always the sun

Always, always, always the sun

There’s always the sun

There’s always the sun

Always, always, always the sun
