The Saints - King of the Sun

Adventures In the Dark Arts of Watermelonery

Rolling out on a Sunday morning
Rain backs in my eyes
First steping into the mud
I'm on the rise

Train rolling onto the distance and I sigh
No looking back, no looking back
I'm gonna rise

And birds fly over the ocean
Why, oh, why can't I?
Birds fly over the rainbow
Why, Lord, can't I?

Sometimes later, sometimes soon
Walking craters on the moon
She and I have to glow
Don't believe there's a place I'd rather go

And birds fly over the rainbow
Why, Lord, can't I?
And birds fly over the ocean
Lordy, why can't I?

Miles below me clouds are flying by
I don't I'd ever get this high
No regrets, no reasons why
Good Good, I don't need an alibi

Birds fly over the oceans
Lord, why can't I?
And birds fly over the rainbow
Why can't I?
