Walkin' On The Sun

Smash Mouth

(Tune down 1/2 step)
                       Am         D         Am                     D
      It ain't no joke, I'd like to buy the world a toke
      And teach the world to live in perfect harmony
      And teach the world to snuff the fires and the liars
      Hey I know it's just a song, but it's spice for the recipe

      This is a love attack, I know it went out, but it's back
      It's just like any fad, retracts before impact
      And it's just like fashion, it's a passion for the with it and hip
                                                                                        E
      If ya got the goods they'll come and buy it just to stay in the clique

                        So don't delay, act now, supplies are runnin' out
                        Allow, if you're still alive, six to eight years to arrive
                        And if you follow, there still may a tomorrow
                        But if the offer is shun, you might as well be walkin' on the sun

      Twenty five years ago they spoke out and they broke out
      Of depression and oppression and together they toked
      And they folked out with guitars around a bonfire
      Just singin' and clappin', and what the hell happened

      Some were spellbound, some were hellbound, some they fell down
      And some got back up, and fought back 'gainst the meltdown
      And their kids are hippie chicks, and some are hypocrites
      Because fashion is smashin' the true meaning of it

                        So don't delay, act now, supplies are runnin' out
                        Allow, if you're still alive, six to eight years to arrive
                        And if you follow, there still may a tomorrow
                        But if the offer is shun, you might as well be walkin' on the sun

      It ain't no joke when our mama's handkerchief is soaked
      With her tears because her baby's life has been revoked
      The band is broke up, so don't choke up, and focus on the close-up
      Mr. Wizard can't perform no god like hocus pocus

      So don't sit back, and kick back, and watch the world get bushwacked
      News at ten, your neighborhood is under attack
      Put away before the crack puts you away
      You need to be there when your babies are old enough to relate

                        So don't delay, act now, supplies are runnin' out
                        Allow, if you're still alive, six to eight years to arrive
                        And if you follow, there still may a tomorrow
                        But if the offer is shun, you might as well be walkin' on the sun
                                 Might as well be walkin' on the sun
                                      Might as well be walkin' on the sun
                                           Might as well be walkin' on the sun
                                                 Might as well be walkin' on the sun...
