Soak Up The Sun   





My friend the communist  

Holds meetings in his RV  

I can't afford his gas 

So I'm stuck here watching TV 

I don't have digital 

I don't have diddly squat 

It's not having what you want 

It's wanting what you've got 

 

 [CHORUS:]  

I'm gonna soak up the sun 

Gonna tell everyone  

To lighten up  

(I'm gonna tell 'em that) 

I've got no one to blame 

For every time I feel lame 

I'm looking up o I'm gonna soak up the sun 

I'm gonna soak up the sun 

I've got a crummy job 

It don't pay near enough 

To buy the things it takes 

To win me some of your love 

Every time I turn around 

I'm looking up, you're looking down 

Maybe something's wrong with you 

That makes you act the way you do 

Maybe i am crazy too 

 

 [CHORUS]  

 

I'm gonna soak up the sun 

While it's still free 

I'm gonna soak up the sun 

Before it goes out on me 

Don't have no master suite 

I'm still the king of me 

You have a fancy ride, but baby 

I'm the one who has the key 

Every time I turn around 

I'm looking up, you're looking down 

Maybe something's wrong with you 

That makes you act the way you do 

Maybe I am crazy too  

 

 [CHORUS]  

 

I'm gonna soak up the sun 

Got my 45 on 

So I can rock on.
