GRAFFITI ON THE SUN 

Walking down Saint Francis Street
Graffiti on the sun
Chewing bubblegum in the summer heat  
Graffiti on the sun 

And it’s harder, harder, harder
Down in the street today
Harder, harder, harder
Not to look away 

Spring arrived like a flag unfurled  
Graffiti on the sun
I’m in love with this beautiful world  
Graffiti on the sun 

But it’s weirder, weirder, weirder  
Down here today
Weirder, weirder, weirder
They always make you pay   

Dear assassin my brother my self
Graffiti on the sun
I’m putting my weapon back on the shelf
Graffiti on the sun 

But it’s harder, harder, harder  
Down in the tenements
Harder, harder, harder  
When you only got sixteen cents 

Sweet little sister couldn’t help but cry
Graffiti on the sun
I asked her but she couldn’t say why
Graffiti on the sun 

It’s weirder, weirder, weirder
Down in the street today
Weirder, weirder, weirder
Not like yesterday 

Graffiti on the sun, graffiti on the sun
