Please don't take the sun from the sky
Don't let them damage my eyes
Please don't let my marigolds die
Though I well know they're not mine
Hey don't let no one get you down
Hey don't let no one get you down
Please don't let the rain blow away
Let it be there 'til the day
When the city's a museum and a rat is a friend
On the pavements of iron let the grass grow again
Please don't take the sun from the sky
Don't let them damage my eyes
