lyrics

Rock Around the Sun

waited all of summer
for the rains to come
for the flash of lightning
crash of thunders drum
well not one splash
flash nor crash did come
just the soaring heat
blinding eye of the sun

got to turn, turn it around
got to pull, pull the mercury down
got to do whatever to be done
here on this rock
rock around the sun
rock around the sun

who’s gonna miss the people?
when all the people are gone
who’s gonna see the sunrise?
see the setting sun
who’s gonna change the world?
if not you, me , everyone?
here on this rock
rock around the sun

yeah we aint got time
got no time at all
yeah the writing
its climbing up the wall
yeah we aint got time
got no time at all
ask not for whom the bell it tolls
its tolling for us all

and god he laughed
oh to see such fun
see us spinning round
round and round the sun
yeah we hanging on
for all we worth
here on this starship
we call the planet earth

hey diddle diddle
cat and the fiddle
cow jumped over the moon
little dog laughed to see such fun

the earth begin to swoon
and god he laughed
oh to see such fun
see us a’spinning round
round and round

got to turn, turn it around
got to pull, pull the mercury down
got to do whatever to be done
here on this rock
rock around the sun

keep on rocking
rock around the sun
keep on rocking
rock around the sun
