Sun Don't Shine
(专辑: While You Were Out - 1986)
Picture if you will a
house on the
hill Where the
family kills each other for a
place in the
will Understand that he came a
dirty old man That holds a
plastic rosary in the
palm of his hand And under the
rug you will sweep (under the
rug you will sweep) Secrets and promises that you can't keep (promises that you can't keep) The
dam it will leak, it will weep Said "I'd like to tell you how I
feel", you said "You know that can't be real, it's much too deep" Why'd you wanna watch and wait, you can't walk on water Get your feet on the
ground There's a
hole in the
floor, hole in the
door Whole wide world waiting to turn you around And under the
rug you will sweep (and under the
rug you will sweep) Secrets and promises you can't keep (promises that you can't keep) The
dam it will leak, it will weep Said "I'd like to tell you how I
feel", you said "You know that can't be real, it's much too deep" Now how will you keep yourself busy? Take the
trouble you're leaving behind And dig down deep where you do not belong there Shine a
light where the
sun doesn't shine Seven days, still no sign of daylight Your tunnel's collapsing from behind And how the
hell did I
get to Alaska Will it shine, the
light where the
sun doesn't shine?
