english: Because the sunshine kid was bright, with a warm personality, And inside he burned savagely Hurt by the words and curses of the shadowy folk who spoke holes in his soul and left cavities, And as his heart hardened, his spark darkened, Every time they called him names it cooled his flames, He thought they might like him if he kept his light dim But they were busy telling lightning she had terrible aim, He couldn’t quite get to grips with what they said, So he let his light be eclipsed by what they said, He fell into a Lone Star State like Texas, And felt like he’d been punched in his solar plexus.
non_english: Jer Sunčano dete je bilo bistra, topla osoba, A iznutra je divlje gorelo Ranjeno uvredama i psovkama senovitog sveta, oni su rečima bušili njegovu dušu ostavljajući pukotine, I kako je njegovo srce okoštavalo, iskra mu je tamnila, Svako dobacivanje hladilo je njegov plamen, Mislio je da će ga voleti ako mu svetlost zatamni No bili su zaokupljeni govoreći munji da je očajan strelac, Nije u potpunosti shvatao o čemu su govorili, Pa je pustio da mu njihove reči pomrače sjaj, Pao je u stanje zvezde usamljenika, kao Teksas I osećao se kao da su ga udarili u solarni pleksus.
