Galt MacDermot
The Flesh Failures (Let the Sunshine In)
[Claude]
We starve, look at one another, short of breath
Walking proudly in our winter coats
Wearing smells from laboratories
Facing a dying nation
Of moving paper fantasy
Listening for the new told lies
With supreme visions of lonely tunes
Somewhere inside something, there is a rush of greatness
Who knows what stands in front of our lives?
I fashion my future on films in space
Silence tells me secretly
Everything
Everything
Manchester, England, England
[Claude & Tribe]
Manchester, England, England (Eyes, look your last)
Across the Atlantic Sea (Arms, take your last embrace)
And I'm a genius, genius (And lips, oh, you, the doors)
I believe in God (Of breath, seal with a righteous kiss)
And I believe that God believes in Claude (Seal with a righteous kiss)
That's me, that's me (The rest is silence)
That's me (The rest is silence)
(The rest is silence)
[Sheila]
We starve, look at one another, short of breath
Walking proudly in our winter coats
Wearing smells from laboratories
[Sheila & Dionne]
Facing a dying nation
Of moving paper fantasy
Listening for the new told lies
With supreme visions of lonely tunes
[Tribe]
Singing our space songs on a spider web sitar
Life is around you and in you
Answer for Timothy Leary, dearie

Let the sunshine
Let the sunshine in

Let the sunshine
Let the sunshine in
The sunshine in
Let the sunshine
Let the sunshine in
