Soak Up The Sun

[Verse 1]
My friend the communist
Holds meetings in his RV
I can't afford his gas
So I'm stuck here watching TV

[Verse 2]
I don't have digital
I don't have diddly-squat
It's not having what you want
It's wanting what you've got

[Chorus]
I'm gonna soak up the sun
I'm gonna tell everyone to lighten up
I'm gonna tell 'em that I've got no one to blame
For every time I feel lame, I'm lookin' up

[Post-Chorus]
I'm gonna soak up the sun
I'm gonna soak up the sun

[Verse 3]
I've got a crummy job
It don't pay near enough
To buy the things it'd take
To win me some of your love

[Pre-Chorus]
Every time I turn around
I'm lookin' up, you're lookin' down
Maybe something's wrong with you
That makes you act the way you do

[Chorus]
I'm gonna soak up the sun
I'm gonna tell everyone to lighten up
I'm gonna tell 'em that I've got no one to blame
For every time I feel lame, I'm lookin' up

[Verse 4]
Ocean man, take me by the hand, lead me to the land
That you understand
Ocean man, the voyage to the corner of the globe
Is a real trip

[Chorus]
Ocean man, the crust of a tan man imbibed by the sand
Soaking up the thirst of the land

Ocean man

[Guitar Solo]

Ocean man
Ocean man

[Chorus]
I'm gonna soak up the sun
I'm gonna tell everyone to lighten up
I'm gonna tell 'em that I've got no one to blame
For every time I feel lame, I'm lookin' up
I'm gonna soak up the sun
