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 who 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 shouldnt 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
Mm-hmm, there’s always the Sun
Always, always (always the Sun)
How many times has the weatherman told you stories that made you laugh?
You know it’s not unlike the Politicians and leaders, when they do things by half
Who gets the job
Of pushing the knob?
That sort of responsibility, you draw straws for it if you’re mad enough.
There’s always the Sun (always the Sun)
Mm-hmm, there’s always the Sun
Always, always (always the Sun).
There’s always the Sun (always the Sun)
Mm-hmm, there’s always the Sun
Always, always (always the Sun).

Ne znam ni sam koliko sam je puta emitovao u emisijama koje radim na radiju. Da li zato što sam to baš hteo, ili nekim povodom, ili što sam smatrao da je baš ona prava da ilustruje priču voditelja… Ne znam ni sam. Jedino što mogu da priznam je da ću to činiti još mnooogo puta.
