The sun is a shade of grey now It may not be well again Some say we're gonna pay now So pray some for your felow man The riches we were given The garden we could live in We took it all for granted We didn't care So now the tree of plenty Is standin' bare and empty We let it wither 'cause we weren't aware The sun is a shade of grey now It may not be well again Some say we're gonna pay now So pray some for your felow man You think you needn't worry I say you better hurry Your well fed body is in danger too Although you're hesitating once you're suffocating I bet I'm gonna see a change in you The sun is a shade of grey now It may not be well again Some say we're gonna pay now So pray some for your felow man It's an old an ragged ship we're sailing on a wild and raging sea I can hear a distant mermaid wailing so despirately The riches we were given The garden we could live in We took it all for granted We didn't care So now the tree of plenty Is standin' bare and empty We let it wither 'cause we weren't aware The sun is a shade of grey now It may not be well again Some say we're gonna pay now So pray some for your felow man
