To buy the things it takes
So I'm stuck here watching TV
That makes you act the way you do
To lighten up
For every time I feel lame
For every time I feel lame
To lighten up
Every time I turn around
Maybe something's wrong with you
I've got no one to blame
I'm gonna soak up the sun
I'm gonna soak up the sun
I've got no one to blame
I can't afford his gas
I'm gonna tell 'em that
Got my 45 on
I'm Looking up, you're looking down
I don't have digital
To win me some of your love
I'm gonna soak up the sun
I don't have diddle squat
But I'm still the king of me
I've got no one to blame
I'm gonna tell everyone
It's wanting what you've got
I'm gonna tell 'em that
I'm looking up
I'm gonna soak up the sun
I'm gonna tell everyone
To lighten up
I'm gonna tell everyone
I've got a crummy job
I've got no one to blame
I'm gonna soak up the sun
I'm gonna tell 'em that
Before it goes out on me
I'm gonna soak up the sun
It don't pay near enough
For every time I feel lame
Maybe I am crazy too
I'm looking up
I'm gonna tell everyone
I'm gonna soak up the sun
I'm gonna soak up the sun
Every time I turn around
That makes you act the way you do
Don't have no master suite
I'm gonna tell 'em that
I'm gonna soak up the sun
I'm looking up, you're looking down
While it's still free
I'm the one who has the key
Maybe something's wrong with you
It's not having what you want
I'm looking up
You have a fancy ride, but baby
For every time I feel lame
To lighten up
I'm looking up
