All in all, it's been blast
But fame and fortune never last
So we'll take refuge in the sand
They burned our churches to the groundBut they can't buy the sunshine
They can't buy the sunshine
They can't buy the sun
But they can't stop the sun
Shine on, the sun, the sun, the sunWe may have sold our very souls
But the ghosts inside the radio
They warned us once and they told us twice
This life's never very niceBut they can't buy the sunshine
They can't buy the sunshine
They can't buy the sun
But they can't stop the sun
Shine on, the sun, the sun, the sunThe credit card skyline rises high
Crushing the sky, it multiplies
They're buying up souls to fill their holes
But we know the one thing they don't knowBut they can't buy the sunshine
They can't buy the sunshine
They can't buy the sun
But they can't stop the sunshine
They can't buy the sunshine
They can't buy the sun
But they can't stop the sun
Shine on, the sun, the sun, the sunShine on, the sun, the sun, the sun
(Shine)
Shine on, the sun, the sun, the sun
(Shine)
Shine on, the sun, the sun, the sun
(Shine)
Shine on, the sun, the sun, the sun
