Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I sold my soul for a one night stand
I followed Alice into Wonderland
I ate the mushroom and I danced with the queen
Yeah, we danced in between all the lines
[Verse 2]
I followed daylight right into the dark
Took to the Hatter like a walk in the park
But then I met her, yeah she felt so right
No child of the night, yeah, was she
[Verse 3]
The called her sunshine
The kind that everybody knows, yeah, yeah
Sunshine
She finer than a painted rose, yeah, yeah
Sunshine, yeah
[Verse 4]
Her kind of love's what I adore
What kind of trouble am I in for?
My kinda heaven lies at Hell's back door
And I got more than I need
[Verse 5]
'Cause I need sunshine
The kind that everybody knows, yeah, yeah
My sunshine
She finer than a painted rose, yeah, yeah
Sunshine, yeah
[Verse 6]
I got the karma but it don't come free
I'll chase that rabbit up her booty tree
The caterpillar's tryin' to cop a plea
But the smoke ain't got nothin' on me
[Verse 7]
I gotta have my sunshine
The kind that everybody knows, yeah, yeah
The sunshine
She finer than a painted rose, yeah, yeah
Sunshine
The kind that everybody knows, yeah, yeah
My sunshine
She finer than a painted rose, yeah, yeah
Sunshine
Sunshine, yeah
