Sgt. Sunshine

Sunrise

The milk man rides his clanging cow

The sun explodes above the brow

The village venom's daily vow

That can't tell when from anyhow

That seized a grip upon it's plow

And knows how much to raise a brow

When steps are taken to allow

A thoughtful thought to take a bow

But all the time it's now somehow

All the time it's now

And Sgt. Sunshine's made the choice

Sgt. Sunshine smokes the choice

Sgt. Sunshine struck the light

Outside the city hall

With the sky so blue, to fall into

And disappear, today

And a way away across the self-same day

Young Johnny's Mum is heard to say

A stitch in ten saves nine astray

And hey look, even the Sun kneels down to pray

Sgt Sunshine knows his faults

He rides the endless next-last waltz

Says he loves his liver salts

And the Moon speaks English, true or false?

And all the time it's now somehow

All the time it's now

Your gravestones mark the past, my friends

Your bank balance marks the future

Unsure: //You live for then, or you don't live now//

I hope you like your torture...

And Sgt. Sunshine's made the point

Sgt. Sunshine's made the choice

Sgt. Sunshine struck the light

Outside the city hall

Sgt. Sunshine

Sgt. Sunshine
