King of Shade

The sun is undefeated,

forty years I've watched it win.

Then I open one umbrella

and the sun does not get in!

The doctor sells you sunscreen,

the bar it sells you beer — but I sell you the

shadow, the only shadow here! (hahaha)

Umbrella man! Umbrella man!

Bringing you the shade since 1985!

Umbrella man!

Umbrella man! Five euros an hour to stay alive!

The tourists come like lobsters,

red and full of pain.

I plant my little forest and they all turn pink again.

A king don't need a castle — a king needs sand and

poles. I got two hundred kingdoms and I rent them out in

rows!

Umbrella man!

Umbrella man!

Bringing you the shade since 1985!

Umbrella man! Umbrella man!

Five euros an hour to stay alive!

Um-bre-lla! Um-bre-lla!

Umbrella man!

Umbrella man!

When the sun goes down I disappear

—

but tomorrow

it comes back, my friend.

And so do I.

And so do I!
