Written on a sunny spring day in Eugene, OR

lyrics

Sunshine

When skies are blue and the whole world’s sunny
I can laugh at stuff that aren’t even funny
I feel so pleasant I don’t want to be rude
Cause sunshine puts me in a happy mood

Wake up in the morning with the sun in my eyes
A little hung over from the previous night
The warm daylight is a welcome surprise
I rush out the door to get into light
The sun is so great nothing can beat it
I open up my arms in an attempt to greet it
When the sun comes out I forget my strife
And remember that it gave me gift of life
I’m not doing much but it’s lots of fun
Everything is better in the glow of the sun
And you get a friendly greeting from who ever you meet
If you’re walking on the sunny side of the street

When skies are blue and the whole world’s sunny
I can laugh at stuff that aren’t even funny
I feel so pleasant I don’t want to be rude
Cause sunshine puts me in a happy mood

All I can see is sunshine for miles
The people outside are wearing happy smiles
I’m going to find a spot at the edge of a brook
Where I can skip some stones or just read a book
Take a dip in the water if it gets to hot
Smoke a joint with my friends if they bring some pot
I might whistle a tune, or sing a little song
Everything is perfect and nothing can go wrong
I don’t have a car I walk everywhere I go
It gets me where I’m going even though it’s kind of slow
A car might be nice if the skies were gray
But who needs to move fast on such a beautiful day

When skies are blue and the whole world’s sunny
I can laugh at stuff that aren’t even funny
I feel so pleasant I don’t want to be rude
Cause sunshine puts me in a happy mood

The sun is shining there’s no chance of showers
And I’m feeling great like I got solar powers
I could be on a mountain, I could be on the coast
Sunny is the weather that I love the most
I love the sun when its hot, love the sun when it snows
Love the sun when it rains, and it makes rainbows
I love the sun, summer, fall, winter, spring
I love the sun and all the life that it brings
I love the sun’s heat, I love the sun’s light
I love the sun all day and I miss it at night
One thing in our solar system can’t be outdone
And everybody knows that thing is the sun

When skies are blue and the whole world’s sunny
I can laugh at stuff that aren’t even funny
I feel so pleasant I don’t want to be rude
Cause sunshine puts me in a happy mood
