by Suzan Dlouhy

Inspired by text on a wall in South Brisbane that simply stated “Built Under the Sun” which led to a reflection on working and finding a sense of purpose.

Composer in 2023.

Lyrics

This life wasn’t made for me

Oh no

Oh no

Cos when I walk in the suns just coming up

And then I step out and it’s on its way down

It’s not how I wanna get tired       

Oh no                    

Oh no

My baby works each and every day         

And when he comes home at least he got things to say

Built under the sun

Something to call his own

What do I have a misplaced soul?

As I’m getting closer I’m getting a hold

Nobody pull me back I’m getting old

I’m getting old

I’m getting old

This life wasn’t made for me        

Oh no                    

Oh no
