| Whatta you mean what was my childhood like? | |
| What difference does that make? | |
| Yo, my childhood was messed up, so what? | |
| Everybody's childhood was messed up. | |
| This is the 90's, find me one person who had it right. | |
| What's that got to do with me rhyming? | |
| What's left?[Slug] | |
| Now when my mother died | |
| I had to take it in stride | |
| There ain't no room for pride in watching your father cry | |
| And dad made it until maybe a year later | |
| When they found his suicide inside of a grain elevator | |
| Got over it, | |
| I had no other offers or options | |
| Thought about whether or not mom and pop was watching | |
| Never bothered with caution, no time for fear | |
| Saw my folks carry fear for most my early years | |
| And I learned from it, turned numb and ignored the storm | |
| A burning sun waiting for the world to plummet | |
| Finished growing up under my uncle's roof | |
| He taught me how to count all the way up to 100 proof | |
| From watching him | |
| I learned how to gather nourishment | |
| Living off the different women that he had to nurture him | |
| And on the surface | |
| I became a normal pre-teen | |
| More afraid of nuclear war than snake bites and bee stings | |
| My best friend was my | |
| TVGame shows and cartoons substituted for puppies, rainbows, and balloons | |
| Now here I am, the shy type, and | |
| I think I'm doing alright | |
| Considering what it was like living my life[Chorus (repeated)] | |
| It's nothing but sunshine | |
| It's all sunshine | |
| It's nothing but sunshine[Slug] | |
| Now it's been 17 summers since | |
| I've seen my mother | |
| But every night | |
| I see her smile inside my dreams | |
| When I was younger | |
| I didn't actually see the accident happen | |
| But every night | |
| I see her smile as it shatters against the screams | |
| I can only imagine | |
| Dad's internal reaction | |
| Strain, inferno burning, bound in his brain | |
| What's it take to make a man who owns acres of land | |
| Abandon the family plan and drown himself in his grains | |
| I'm glad I left that farm in | |
| Northern Minnesota | |
| Where the time moves slower and the winters are colder | |
| Became a city boy, where everybody acts like they older | |
| Where they stick to themselves and keep a chip on they shoulder26 years of age, no longer full of rage | |
| I think it's safe to say | |
| I've turned a page on my childhood days"Ay yo look Ma, I'm a productive member of societyWhen I'm drunk I make noise, but otherwise I live quietly" | |
| And on the weekend | |
| I go back up north to reminisce | |
| Remember what it was like pretending to be a kid | |
| Late at night | |
| I walked the fields and lurk in the shadows | |
| Getting even with life by murdering cattle[Cow Skit][Chorus (repeated)] | |
| It's all sunshine | |
| It's nothing but sunshine | |
| It's all sunshine(And I'm gonna be alright, and you gonna be alright,You ain't gotta hold my hand, just walk with me tonight)[Fade out](What it is, it ain't,and what it ain't it is,is a theme of a Virgo) |
