It doesn't have to be this way
Just counting the hours
Cuz when your bed, it's made

Then baby, it's too late
Yeah...


There's no hope for a hungry child
Whose joker is wild
They take all hope away

By the end of the day

Well I just about have enough of the sunshine

Hey! what did I hear you say?
You know, it deosn't have to be that way
You! when you walk out the door

You gonna ask for more

It doesn't have to hurt that way

Just counting the pain
You've only got yourself to blame
For playing the game


There's no hope for a hungry child (no wonder!)
Whose joker is wild

And they take all hope away
And I just can't see the sense
And my mind's a haze


Well I just about have enough of the sunshine
Hey! what did I hear you say?

You know, it deosn't have to be that way
You! when you walk out the door
You gonna ask for more


Do you want it?
Do you want it?

Don't you know that I got it baby?
Don't you know I got it baby?


And I just about have enough of the sunshine
Hey! what did I hear you say?
You know, it deosn't have to be that way

You! when you walk out the door
You better ask for more
