  • when it's my moment in the sun
    oh, how beautiful I'll be
    but in a normal sort of way
    like I am you and you are me

    'cause I have a lot of things to say
    and you'd be wise to listen good
    I think that hunger, war and death
    are bringin' everybody down

    when it's my moment in the sun
    I'll share my problems with the world
    and psychosomatically I'll sing
    to God and all his pretty girls

    when it's my moment in the sun
    I won't torget that I am blessed
    but every hero walks alone
    thinking of more things to confess
