about

No Sun Today
…the pain from lost love, unrequited love, love gone bad, love gone dead, can bring about rage or sadness but just as often can bring about a gray non-emotional cloudiness that can linger on…the narrator feel this numbness after a love affair is over….friends with their heart in the right place want to talk about it but in this state he doesn’t want to have to go through the feelings again---or the memories…pull down the shades…let’s keep it cool and dark for a while…soon will be time to move on!...I’m on the rhythm acoustic that enters in the chorus…Ron on electrics…Bobby on 5-string bass…yes!...it’s real Policey…real Stingish…I tried real hard not to do what they did on their song that sounds similar (you know the one) but nevertheless I think it develops into something all its own…

lyrics

No Sun Today
Gotta get a letter to the weatherman
Gotta get another rainy day
Gotta get myself together best I can
Looks like she’s really gone away
Gonna paint the sky in shades of grey
Gotta get another dismal day
Wanna keep those dark clouds hangin’ over me
Don’t want no sun today
oh but I-- don’t feel sad and I-- don’t feel mad I just—
don’t feel anything at all…yea let the—
clouds roll in let the-- rain begin
I don’t-- want no sun at all—no sun!
No sun today…No sun today…No sun today
No sun today…No sun today…No sun today
Just when I thought we had all figured out
Just when I thought we had it made
Don’t want no sun today
Don’t wanna think about the good times we had
Gotta get you out of my brain
Don’t want no memory takin hold of me
Don’t wanna have to feel that pain
Don’t wanna-- talk no talk don’t wanna--
take no walk don’t wanna--
go outside at all--don’t wanna--
talk on the phone just wanna--
be alone just let me be please don’t call me at all no no
[chorus]
[repeat verse 1]
[chorus]
