Sunshine Avenue

If you could, way back when
Then would you do it all again?
Are you running from time or yourself?
Every product has its time on the shelf

I can tell you’ve been locked up for ages
Burn in hell, cause it’s so outrageous
Clocks wrong and you don’t want to submit
But too late, watch out, it comes back in

Don’t know what to say
Guess irony has come to save the day
Go and ask time if it’s feeling okay
Oh, what a shame

Finally you saw it and
It wasn’t what you’d hoped to see
Kids all wanna make it
What a nightmare of a dream

Criss-cross citizens doing what you got to do
Is it hard to say goodbye
Down on Sunshine Avenue

(What are you laughin' at?)

Call me selfish, out white lying
Nice one, everybody is crying
Call every cheerleader you would correct it
I’ll give you my heart, and I’ll come to collect it

Eclectic disabilities
Not just a liar but a liability
Found a dirty spoon yesterday
Like the papers and headlines, I put it in, anyway

Don’t know what to say
Guess irony has come to save the day
Go and ask time if it’s feeling okay
Oh, what a shame

Finally you saw it and
It wasn’t what you’d hoped to see
Kids all wanna make it
What a nightmare of a dream

Criss-cross citizens doing what you got to do
Is it hard to say goodbye
Down on Sunshine Avenue

In the house of disease
Go weak at the knees
Don’t cry on your sleeve
What a [?] machine

Finally you saw it and
It wasn’t what you’d hoped to see
Kids that wanna make it
What a nightmare of a dream

Criss-cross citizens doing what you got to do
Is it hard to say goodbye
Down on Sunshine Avenue
