You can stick that dirty needle
in your last responsive vein
But don't let it steal the
Just throw upon your family
But don't let it steal the
You can't beg, borrow, steal
To pay for your next deal
From a boy in a tracksuit
If you really think that's wise
But the one thing you must promise me
Don't let it steal the sun
while the wind, it hacks your bones
Don't let it steal the sunshine
Lie so much to all your friends
that you're left on your own
Don't let it steal the sunshine
Worm your way through life,
living one scorn to the next
with whom you can sympathize
But you will not leave this hospital
till you give me your word
Don't let it steal the sun
Oh, don't let it steal the
Don't let it steal the mischief
Don't let it plant the seed of blackness
Don't let it steal the sunshine
that I took my eyes off you
I bet it took so long for me to realize
But you will not leave this hospital
till you give me your word
Don't let it steal the sunshine
You can ship up by my gravesite
with your mind in the brown bike
But don't let it steal the
Forget every ounce of decency,
But don't let it steal the
You were not my only son,
you were the first of three
And I loved each one of you the same,
But you will not leave this hospital
until you give me your word
Don't let it steal the sunshine
Don't let it steal sunshine
Don't let it steal the mischief
Don't let it ramp the seed of blackness
Don't let it steal the sunshine
Well I curse upon the day
that I took my eyes off you
That it took so long for me to realize
But you will not leave this hospital
till you give me your word
Don't let it steal the sunshine
No, you will not leave this hospital
till you give me your word
Don't let it steal the sunshine
My son, you will not leave this hospital
till you give me your word
Don't let it steal the sunshine
