[Verse 1]

Well, it might seem like we're not ones to tell you

But who's in charge of your destiny

Some dumb fucker, or is it you?

Know it's not what's in-between your legs

But what's inside your head that counts

You say you're worthless

But I see through the bullshit

I see through the bullshit


[Verse 2]

Well you're not helpless

You can stand on your own two feet

So why do you let yourself be treated like a fucking piece of meat?

You call it life, I call it rape, I call it prostitution

I don't know why you hate yourself

'Cause you're not ugly at all


[Chorus]

So let the sunshine in

And chase away your blues

'Cause smilers never lose, and frowners never win

So let the sunshine in

I know it's fucking hard

But now it's time to try to start

To let the sunshine in


[Verse 3]

And when you feel fucked up

And your life is in the gutter

Think about it for a minute

It's what you say that matters

Don't call it life, just call it rape, just call it prostitution

And you won't have to hate yourself

'Cause you know you're a beautiful person


[Chorus]

Let the sunshine in

And chase away your blues

'Cause smilers never lose, and frowners never win

So let the sunshine in

I know it's fucking hard

But now it's time to try to start

To let the sunshine in


[Outro]

The sun's gonna shine on you

The sun's gonna shine on you

Sun's gonna shine on you

So let the sunshine, let the sunshine through

The sun's gonna shine on you

The sun's gonna shine on you

The sun's gonna shine on you

So let the sunshine, let the sunshine

Gotta let the sunshine, let the sunshine

Let the sunshine, let the sunshine

Let the sunshine, let the sunshine

Let the sunshine, let the sunshine through
