The lion in the sun is lookin' at me
(The lion in the sun is lookin' at me)
I said no, no, no to the lion in the sun (lion in the sun)
Lift up your head and listen to me
(Lift up your head and listen to me)
Cannot run or hide from the lion in the sun (lion in the sun)

The world will steal your innocency, like a thief in the night
Lookin' for your weakness, preyin' on your vices
They will lie to you, tell ya what you wanna hear
Whisper evil in your ear, ah no, no, no
Shake up your senses, yes they will

The lion in the sun is lookin' at me
(The lion in the sun is lookin' at me)
I said no, no, no to the lion in the sun (lion in the sun)
Lift up your head and listen to me
(Lift up your head and listen to me)
Cannot run or hide from the lion in the sun (lion in the sun)

If your searchin' for fortune and fame
One more thing left to blame
Leave ya life in crisis, all dem ill devices
One day you'll wake up broken and alone
They suck the marrow from ya bones, oh no, no, no
It's to late for you to cry

What you feel is right for you, doesn't make it right for me
Believe something's you cannot see
But never let a blind man lead
I said never let a blind man lead ya
Learn from mistakes in the past, mans way will never last
Listen to that inner voice
But never take a baldheads choice, no, no, no, no
The lion in the sun is lookin' at me
(The lion in the sun is lookin' at me)
I said no, no, no to the lion in the sun (lion in the sun)
Lift up your head and listen to me
(Lift up your head and listen to me)
Said I, cannot run or hide from the lion in the sun (lion in the sun)

If your searchin' for fortune and fame
One more thing left to blame
Leave ya life in crisis, all dem ill devices
One day you'll wake up broken and alone
They suck the marrow from ya bones, oh no, no, no
It's to late for you to cry, don't cry

What you feel is right for you, doesn't make it right for me
Believe something's you cannot see
But never let a blind man lead
I said never let a blind man lead ya
Learn from mistakes in the past, mans way will never last
Listen to that inner voice
But never take a baldheads choice, no, no, no, no

The lion in the sun is lookin' at me
(The lion in the sun is lookin' at me)
I said no, no, no to the lion in the sun (lion in the sun)
Lift up your head and listen to me
(Lift up your head and listen to me)
Cannot run or hide from the lion in the sun (lion in the sun)
