  • I am walking in a dream
    Everything I touch it isn't real
    People aren't just what they seem
    And I really don't know what to feel
    Mr. Sunshine's not for me

    I don't mind the sky of blue
    Or the honey clouds that wander by
    When that orange thing comes through
    I must look away or think I'll die
    Mr. Sunshine's not for me

    Blacker days I'll never see
    And I curse your light a hundred times
    When you shine your rays on me
    I must hide my head or lose my mind
    Mr. Sunshine's not for me

    My old man says I am mad
    Said that things were saner in his day
    But I didn't listen, Dad
    All the words you said I threw away
    Mr. Sunshine's not for me
    Mr. Sunshine's not for me
