Soul Asylum is an American alternative rock band formed in the summer of 1981 by Minneapolis high school friends Dan Murphy, Karl Mueller, and Dave Pirner. The band (named Loud Fast Rules up until 1984) quickly became frontrunners of American college rock, following in the tradition of fellow Minnesota bands Hüsker Dü and The Replacements.
Landing their first record deal with Twin/Tone in 1984, Soul Asylum recorded a total of four albums for the local label: Say What You Will.

Oh the Sun Maid Looking for the shade
Though they say she's not too bright, She takes care of all the light. Without you it's cold and stark. We would all be in the dark
CHORUS Without the Sun Maid She never gets paid Searching for the shade Uh oh The Sun Maid
(Dissonant strings, play chords like the intro)
You are so taken for granted With each and every seed that's planted. And the earth is so demanding. All the young girls are out tanning.
CHORUS With the Sun Maid She's such an old maid She never gets laid Oh the Sun Maid
Now you're tired, your day is over. Now the moon is one day older.
