You stole the sun And it’s raining outside You stole the sun You ain’t giving him to anyone You stole the sun You stole the sun You stole the sun And it’s raining outside You stole the sun You ain’t giving him to anyone So I got myself a ladder And I climbed up to the sun I took with me my sunglasses I took my water pistol And eventually I shot him Stuck him in my bag I took him the ladder And he toasted all my fags And then I hung him in my bedroom And it was nice and hot I went into my wardrobe I put on my shades and shorts Soon I had a suntan I hadn’t told a soul The police came around to ask me I said I didn’t know You stole the sun You stole the sun You stole the sun And it’s raining outside You stole the sun You ain’t giving him to anyone Well, it was pitch black outside No one could see a thing And I’m stood here with my guitar And I begin to sing While everybody else Is searching for a torch I’m stood in the sunshine There’s no way I’m getting bored I’m sipping on a cocktail I suck a strawberry split I hold my glass up in the air I said I love this shit Mr. Sunshine says to me ‘When will you set me free?’ I says to him with a grin on my face ‘No, you’re all for me’ You stole the sun You stole the sun You stole the sun And it’s raining outside You stole the sun You ain’t giving him to anyone Who stole, Who stole Who stole the sun? Who stole, Who stole Who stole the sun? Who stole, Who stole Who stole the sun? Well, I’m making a confession And I don’t know why But I had this sudden urge To take the sun right out the sky To keep it for myself Not for anybody else I got so blind and selfish That I begun to melt And after about 3 days I burnt up to a crisp I had to leave the sun off Guard to go and have a piss To go and get some cream To soothe my painful blisters I ran down to the shop I heard somebody whisper They asked me where I’d been And why I looked like a lobster I blamed it on my ex Who went to uni and I lost her She called me on the phone And give me loads of grief She says I need to get a life And that I am a thief I don’t know how she caught me She really sussed me out But anyway I’ve got to go I’ve got things to sort out I ran back up the road I looked up at my house My window was ajar Mister Sunshine had got out And then hours making daylight And I felt full of spite I fell down on my knees And I began to cry Mister Sunshine got away He was shining down his rays I went and got my ladders And I got him back again You stole the sun You stole the sun You stole the sun And it’s raining outside You stole the sun You ain’t giving him to anyone Who stole, Who stole Who stole the sun? Who stole, Who stole Who stole the sun? Who stole, Who stole Who stole the sun? You stole the sun, yeahh You stole the sun You stole the sun And it’s raining outside You stole the sun You ain’t giving him to anyone You stole the sun You stole the sun from everyone
