Staring at the Sun Lyrics

Well I started out strong and my hopes were high
I figured on bein' like Bonny and Clyde
25 years as an alibi... I had to get connected
So I wrote a long letter to a government man
I told him I was born in the summer of sam
He said "son i don't think that you understand,
I just wanna get elected"
Well my heart grew heavy and my hair grew long
I had to take a job just to get along
But I was down in the gutter below
Cos my daddy always said to sing your song
How hard can it be to get along
He said don't go sellin' your soul
Don't go sellin' your soul
Hey man, you know what's up?
Too slow, feels like we're staring at the sun
Get high, get low but don't let you ego
Out there staring at the sun
Staring at the sun

I gotta lotta love for the modern man
I read a lotta books that I don't understand
I wanna lotta things that I lost or sold
I just wanna hooker with a heart of gold
Cos my heart gets heavy and my hair gets long
How can it be that you get along
When you don't go selling your soul
Now baby I love you
And spring's in the air
But it just seems that lately
We spent our days just smoking pot
And wonderin' how. We got so f***** up!
