When The Sun Comes Out — текст песни (John Wesley Harding)

Its been raining for a million years

And the weather just wont turn

Try to build a fire round your place

And the damned logs refuse to burn

The braindead have been sitting on their sunbeds

Wheres heaven for its own sake

Lying dead or half-forgotten

At the bottom of a bottomless lake



But when the sun comes out

The worlds gonna go crazy

Everybodys gonna move their arms about

Cos what they believed is turned inside-out

When the sun comes out



Its been raining since I dont know when

Were all in for a big surprise

Go to the woods in your dreams tonight

And when you awake you wont believe your eyes

Its all the rage, itll make the front page

Gotta get the gutter press going down the drain

Butter melts if you leave it near the window

And its time to try and use a deckchair again



But when the sun comes out....



When the sun comes out

His pa will be so disappointed

To find out his son was double-jointed

Some will flounder

Some will be anointed

The son couldnt wait to do a turn-about



Its been raining but its gonna stop

Cats and dogs will shake themselves

Time to work, time to pick those hops

I gotta go and mend the greenhouse shelves

This was meant, well, its all heaven-sent

Go out naked and have no fear

One boy spent a little life in torment

But now hes grinning from ear to ear

Now hes grinning from here to here...
