Lyrics
I see those black clouds coming,
rolling cross the hills
Right up to my front door,
Then they begin to spill
Out there precious raindrops
Falling down like liquid pain
Filling up my day with sorrow
And pounding in my brain
And old noah had it easy,
With 40 days and nights
That?s just a little summer shower
must have been nice
Cuz if you?ve been living where i?m living
You better learn to float
If you?ve been living where i?m living
Gonna need more than a boat
Chorus:
It?s rain pouring down
And the flood?s all around
And i fear i might drown
Cuz this rain does not end :repeat
Now it?s time for the clearview forecast
Live at 7 o?clock
He says there?s a chance of sunshine
And chance the rain might stop
But i know the man is lying,
So i switch to channel 10
And sure enough the truth be told
there?s another storm rolling in
So why bother with the weather man
When the weather?s all the same
Why bother with the weather man
When you know it?s gonna rain
You?d be better off packing that suitcase
And running for the train
So why bother with the weather man,
When his forecast?s all in vain
