  Lyrics : <br><br>How many times you woken up and prayed for the rain?<br>How many times you seen the papers apportion the blame?<br>Who gets to say, who gets to work, who gets to play?<br>I was always told at school, everybody should get the same<br><br>How many times have you been told<br>If you don&apos;t ask, you don&apos;t get?<br>How many lads have taken your money?<br>Your mother said you shouldn&apos;t bet<br><br>Who has the fun, is it always a man with a gun?<br>Someone must have told you, if you work too hard, you can sweat<br><br>There&apos;s always the sun (always the sun)<br>There&apos;s always the sun<br>Always, always (always the sun)<br><br>How many times have the weathermen told you stories<br>That made you laugh?<br>You know it&apos;s not unlike the politicians and the leaders<br>When they do things by halves<br><br>And who gets the job of pushing the knob?<br>That&apos;s what responsibility you draw straws for if you&apos;re mad enough<br><br>There&apos;s always the sun, mmh (always the sun)<br>There&apos;s always the sun<br>Always, always (always the sun)<br><br>There&apos;s always the sun, mmh (always the sun)<br>There&apos;s always the sun<br>Always, always (always the sun)<br><br>There&apos;s always the sun, mmh (always the sun)<br>There&apos;s always the sun<br>Always, always (always the sun)<br><br>There&apos;s always the sun, mmh (always the sun)<br>There&apos;s always the sun<br>Always, always (always the sun)<br>(Always the sun)<br>All, all (always the sun)<br><br>There&apos;s always the sun, mmh (always the sun)<br>There&apos;s always the sun<br>Always, always (always the sun)

  This song is a masterpiece, I can&apos;t believe it only reached no 30 in the uk charts what an absolute disgrace. It&apos;s one of my favourites. 😀❤

  The most beautiful song in the world with &quot;Golden Brown&quot;. The two of the incredible genius of The Stranglers. ❤️

  Funny, The Stranglers have been around for like 60 years. And is great reading the &nbsp;comments of people liking other songs, nobody mentions “ No more Heroes” yet that is the song that defined them and brought them success. In 1977.
