Sitting around the fireplace
With a friend who's been through it all
Solomon, wisest one
Tell me what you have found
Under the sun, under the sun
He answered

Get over
Get over
Get over the sun
Where life is hidden

Then he put on
A sombre face
Talked about how
The rich man will waste
Away in the ground
Where the poor man is found
Painted up, like a clown
Under the sun, under the sun
He answers

Son you'll soon be done
A life spent on some shiny god
Who leaves you empty

Get over
Get over
Get over the sun
Where life is hidden
