Stephin Merritt - genius 
I don\'t believe in the Sun
They say there\'s a sun in the sky
but me, I can\'t imagine why
There might have been one
before you were gone
but now all I see is the night, so
I don\'t believe in the sun
How could it shine down on everyone
and never shine on me
How could there be
such cruelty.
The only sun I ever knew
was the beautiful one that was you
Since you went away
it\'s nighttime all day
and it\'s usually raining too
The only stars there really are
were shining in your eyes
There is no sun except the one
that never shone on other guys
The moon to whom the poets croon
has given up and died
Astronomy will have to be revised
All My Little Words
You are a splendid butterfly
It is your wings that make you beautiful
And I could make you fly away
But I could never make you stay
You said you were in love with me
Both of us know that that\'s impossible
And I could make you rue the day
But I could never make you stay
Not for all the tea in China
Not if I could sing like a bird
Not for all North Carolina
Not for all my little words
Not if I could write for you
The sweetest song you ever heard
It doesn\'t matter what I\'ll do
Not for all my little words
Now that you\'ve made me want to die
You tell me that you\'re unboyfriendable
And I could make you pay and pay
But I could never make you stay
I don\'t believe in the Sun
They say there\'s a sun in the sky
but me, I can\'t imagine why
There might have been one
before you were gone
but now all I see is the night, so
I don\'t believe in the sun
How could it shine down on everyone
and never shine on me
How could there be
