Sunless Saturday

Biography:

Fishbone is an American rock band formed in 1979 in Los Angeles, California, which plays a fusion of ska, punk, funk, heavy metal, reggae, and soul. AllMusic has described the group as "one of the most distinctive and eclectic alternative rock bands of the late '80s. With their hyperactive, self-conscious diversity, goofy sense of humor, and sharp social commentary, the group gained a sizable cult following yet they were never able to earn a mainstream audience."

C9 F C9 D

Verse 1:
C9 D
I see the pestilence outside my window
C9 D
I see the dung heaps piled at least a mile high
C9 D
I see the shards of shattered dreams in the street
C9 D
I face the morning with my customary sigh

C9 F C9 D

verse 2:

I hear the sounds of children laughing aloud
A stumbling wino has attracted quite a crowd
My breakfast finished now I brave the outside
But clouds have hidden all the warmth inside

Chorus:

C9 F
Chase these clouds away
C9 D
I hate this sunless Saturday
(repeat)
C9 F
Freedom come
C9 D
For us now
C9 F
Light our Sky
C9 D
Burn away these clouds

Perhaps the charcoal grey and brown around me
Is just the mirror image of my tainted soul
I think the sun will never visit my sky
Until the truth is seen by each and every eye

Chorus

I see the helpless and I see the insane
I see a pauper singing in the pouring rain
I see the means of help elude us again
I think the sun will never visit me again

Chorus
