lyrics

VERSE:
HEY, FIDDLE DIDDLE, THIS CAT’S IN THE MIDDLE
THE MIDDLE OF ONE COOL RUN
HEY, SISTER RAY, IT’S TIME TO MAKE HAY
THEN STARE INTO THE SUN, STARE INTO THE SUN

HEY, SWEET BABY, DON’T YOU THINK MAYBE
WE COULD BURN SOME FUN
CALL ME HAZY, LITTLE BIT CRAZY
STARE INTO THE SUN, STARE INTO THE SUN

CHORUS:
I DIG LONDON, I DIG FRANCE
I HATE FAKING CHEAP ROMANCE
IF YOU ROCK MY SOUL TO SLEEP
FINALLY WE’LL GET SOME, GET SOME... GET SOME PEACE

VERSE:
OL’ MOTHER HUBBARD, CRAWLED OUT the CUPBOARD
CHEWING MAGIC GUM
SHE, JACK & JILL, SKIPPED UP THE HILL
TO STARE INTO THE SUN, STARE INTO THE SUN

CHORUS:
I DIG LONDON, I DIG FRANCE
I HATE FAKING CHEAP ROMANCE
IF YOU ROCK MY SOUL TO SLEEP
FINALLY WILL GET SOME, GET SOME... GET SOME PEACE

HIT ME! AGAIN!

SOLO

VERSE:
HEY, TWEEDLEDEE, BABY, WHAT DO YOU SEE
YOU’RE NOT SO TWEEDLEDUM
LITTLE BO PEEP, SOLD HER SHEEP
THEN STARED INTO THE SUN, STARE INTO THE SUN

CHORUS:
I DIG LONDON, I DIG FRANCE
I HATE FAKING CHEAP ROMANCE
IF YOU ROCK MY SOUL TO SLEEP
FINALLY WILL GET SOME, GET SOME... GET SOME PEACE

OUTRO:
STARE INTO THE SUN, STARE INTO THE SUN,
GOTTA STARE INTO THE SUN, STARE INTO THE SUN,
STARE INTO THE SUN, STARE INTO THE SUN....
