Shine on


Someone left the cat out in the rain
Someone left us waiting here to deal with all the pain
Someone else was caught upon the wire
Someone else's life changed when he felt the fire

We got no patience but we get through
We got no patience but we got you

All of the complainers shout no fair
All the hurricaners with their fist up in the air
Someone gave the order, kill the pain
Someone else ignored her, left the cat out in the rain

One more fire, 'fore I die, one more fire get me high

Come on down to the fire
Come on down to the flame
Leave your problems behind ya
Shine on doomsday, c'mon on down

The circle closed in tight around the ring
When eagle takes to flight, the scorpion to sting
Someone panicked, someone threw the snitchWe all covered up, took shelter in the ditch

We got no patience but we get through
We got no patience but we got you

All of the complainers weren't there
All of the hurricaners, took to flight by the sea and air
They all panicked, melted in the rain
Someone left the cat out
Put a bullet in her brain

One more fire, 'fore I die, one more fire get me high

I'm losing myself in the rain,
I'm losing myself in the pouring rain
I'm going in, I'm not coming out
It's where I've been, I'm not coming out
I'm losing myself in the rain,
I'm losing myself in the pouring rain!

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
