I'm gonna take myself a piece of sunshine and paint it all over my sky.
Be no rain. Be no rain.
I'm gonna take the song from every bird and make them sing it just for me.
Be no rain.
And I think I'll call it morning from now on.
Why should I survive on sadness?
Convince myself I've got to be alone?
Why should I subscribe to this world's madness knowing that I've got to live on?
I think I'll call it morning from now on.
I'm gonna take myself a piece of sunshine and paint it all over my sky.
Be no rain. Be no rain.
I'm gonna take the song from every bird
and make them sing it just for me.
Why should I hang my head?
Why should I let tears fall from my eyes?
When I've seen everything that there is to see!
And I know that there ain't no sense in crying!
I know that there ain't no sense in crying!
I think I'll call it morning from now on.
Gil Scott-Heron - I Think I'll Call It Morning(1971)
