| Very old Jonathan Edwards song, some of you old ferts will remember it - I've heard it a million times, but today's the 1st time I questioned the lyrics... he's not talking about Jesus in this is he ? If he is, it's pretty rebellious lyrics:
"Sunshine go away today I don't feel much like dancing Some man's gone, he's tried to run my life Don't know what he's asking
He tells me I'd better get in line Can't hear what he's saying When I grow up I'm going to make it mine But these aren't dues I been paying
(Chorus) How much does it cost, I'll buy it The time is all we've lost, I'll try it But he can't even run his own life I'll be d****ed if he'll run mine, Sunshine
Sunshine go away today I don't feel much like dancing Some man's gone he's tried to run my life Don't know what he's asking
Working starts to make me wonder where The fruits of what I do are going He says in love and war all is fair But he's got cards he ain't showing
(Chorus)
Sunshine come on back another day I promise you I'll be singing This old world, she's gonna turn around Brand new bells'll be ringing"
Your interpretation ? | |

| ^ Seems more the case, now that I've read the "Song-Meanings" site. You're right. | |

| I think I actually liked the Tiny Toons characters better than Pinky & The Brain....there was also the Warner Brothers and their wacky sister Dot. Plucky Duck was my favorite....but you also had to give props to Slappy Squirrel (because if you didn't she would whack you with her bag) _________________ "I used to be indecisive..........
