Things Behind the Sun
Please beware of them that stareThey'll only smile to see you whileYour time awayAnd once you've seen what they have beenTo win the earth just won't seem worthYour night or your dayWho'll hear what I say.Look around you find the groundIs not so far from where you areBut not too wiseFor down below they never growThey're always tired and charms are hiredFrom out of their eyesNever surprise.
Take your time and you'll be fineAnd say a prayer for people thereWho live on the floorAnd if you see what's meant to beDon't name the day or try to sayIt happened before.
Don't be shy you learn to flyAnd see the sun when day is doneIf only you seeJust what you are beneath a starThat came to stay one rainy dayIn autumn for freeYes, be what you'll be.Please beware of them that stareThey'll only smile to see you whileYour time awayAnd once you've seen what they have beenTo win the earth just won't seem worthYour night or your dayWho'll hear what I say.
Open up the broken cupLet goodly sin and sunshine inYes that's today.And open wide the hymns you hideYou find reknown while people frownAt things that you sayBut say what you'll sayAbout the farmers and the funAnd the things behind the sunAnd the people round your headWho say everything's been saidAnd the movement in your brainSends you out into the rain.
