Mary wasn't in school today, but no one noticed anyway
Her situation has come undone, she's tired of living on


Mary is righteous, Mary is true
But she's got everything to prove
It's not that life has got her down
She's just down on life

There's no sunshine falling down on her
Do anything you want to spread your wings and you can fly
Do anything you've got to
There is so much more to life than time

And Mary doesn't have much pride
And Mary doesn't have much self-respect
And Mary doesn't have much pride
And Mary didn't have much confidence
And Mary doesn't have much pride
And Mary doesn't have much

sunshine falling down on her
Do anything you want to spread your wings and you can fly
Do anything you've got to
There is so much more to life than time

They see you growing up and all the things you'd love
But they look through the doorway out the window
they can't see
And everything is lost, it's such a painful cost
But little Mary Sunshine she is free
