Lyrics

[Verse 1] It's been raining for a million years And the weather just won't turn Try to build a fire in your place And the damned logs refuse to burn The braindead have been sitting on their sunbed Where's heaven for its own sake Lying dead or half-forgotten At the bottom of a bottomless lake The bottom of a bottomless lake [Chorus] Well, when the sun comes out The world's gonna go crazy Everybody's gonna move their arms about 'Cause what they believed is turned inside-out When the sun comes out When the sun comes out, yeah When the sun comes out [Verse 2] It's been raining since I don't know when We're all in for a big surprise Go to the woods in your dreams tonight And when you awake you won't believe your eyes It's all the rage and it'll make the front page Gotta get the gutter press going down the drain Butter melts if you leave it near the window And it's time to try and use a deckchair again Time to try and use a deckchair again [Chorus] But when the sun comes out Definition's getting hazy Everybody's gonna be moving about 'Cause what they believed has been turned to doubt When the sun comes out Well, when the sun comes out, yeah When the sun comes out [Bridge] (When the son comes out) His pa will be so disappointed (When the son comes out) His son was double-jointed When the son comes out Some will flounder Some will be anointed The son couldn't wait to do a turn-about [Verse 3] It's been raining but it's gonna stop Cats and dogs will shake themselves Time to work, time to pick those hops I gotta go and mend the greenhouse shelves This was meant, well, it's all heaven-sent Go out naked and have no fear One boy spent a little life in torment Now, now he's grinning from ear to ear Now he's grinning from here to here [Chorus] But when the sun comes out The world's gonna go crazy Everybody's gonna move their arms about 'Cause what they believed is turned inside-out When the sun comes out Oh, when the sun comes out, yeah Oh, when the sun comes out Oh, when the sun comes out
