Put your hand in your pocket and picture the scene What would the world be like if you only had dreams? Would you walk in the sunshine, or just cry in the shade Take the chip off your shoulder girl, and look what you’ve made I don’t know how your mind works How you cope with the pain Are thing’s really so bad mary jane? You say you don’t like the sunshine cause it burns up your eyes But you don’t like the clouds too much cause they block out the skies You can’t stand the summer, and the winters to blame But the spring is too wet now girl, and the autumns the same Chorus You say you don’t like the sunset cause it signals the night But you don’t like the sunrise girl, cause the shadows take flight You say you’re feeling so tired now, and you just sleep all the day When you’re ill you’re a temple babe but you take drugs just for play Chorus I once saw a young girl, with that look in her eye The whole world in front of her with her dreams in the sky I saw her this morning when she walked out her door Your eyes were like mirrors girl, I can’t take any more I’m not sure where dreams went, did they flood with the rains? But things are never that bad Mary Jane.
