Lyrics

Watching Rainbows

Standing in the garden waiting for the sun to shine

Hand me my umbrella when she says she wish she was mine

Everybody does think a thing it didn't come

Instead of watching rainbows I'm gonna make me some

Instead of watching rainbows I'm gonna make me some

Standing in the garden waiting for the English sun to come and make me brown so I can be someone

Looking at the bench of next door neighbors

Crying to my mom of diamond tooth sabers

Everybody's got to have something hard to hold

Well instead of watching rainbows under the sun

You gotta get out son and make you one

You gotta get out son and make you one

Because you're not gonna make it if you cry cry cry I know

Shoot big

Shoot big

Whatever you do you gotta kill somebody to get what you wanna get

You gotta shoot big

You gotta shoot big

Until you shoot big

I can't stand it
