Nothing but a mud pie
Wrapped up inside with a pretty bow
Nothing but a castle built on top of a swamp of quicksand
And inside these cardboard walls and saran wrap windows
Lies a rusty pot of fool's gold that you got with your life
You thought you'd take a bad bet on loyalty
You thought you'd tell yourself to act like royalty
Until the day you became his prey
As you tripped over your red carpet
You wash your hair in melaleuca oil
Then you wrap your head up with tin foil and
Prance around in your bathrobe
Pretending you're a king
But you're spinning hard
Sinking faster now
Well you can follow your rainbows
And I will follow the sun now
Wherever he goes it's
Not too far to run
So I will follow the sun
Follow the sun
Nothing but a calendar hanging on your wall that's 23-years old
Nothing but a "For sale" sign on a house that's already sold
Trying to chew through that chocolate-covered barbed wire
'Cause they're among the beautiful filth waiting for you on the other side
But you're spinning hard
Sinking faster now
Well you can follow your rainbows
And I will follow the sun now
Wherever he goes it's
Not too far to run
So I will follow the sun
Follow the sun
Follow the sun
Follow the sun
Clever lives end up rusty and forgotten
Brilliant minds end up with Alzheimer's
What I thought was so deep ended up so hollow
And what I thought had meaning ended up so shallow
Yeah you can follow your rainbows
And I will follow the sun now
Wherever he goes it's
Not too far to run
So I will follow the sun
Yeah you can follow your rainbows
And I will follow the sun now
Wherever he goes it's
Not too far to run
So I will follow the sun
