Rain Dance

RAIN DANCE

LOOKS LIKE IT’S GONNA RAIN TODAY
MAN, DON’T YOU KNOW WE NEED IT
SEEMS LIKE MONTHS SINCE WE’VE SEEN IT
LOOKS LIKE IT’S GONNA RAIN TODAY

CH

WHEN DO WE GET TO DO OUR RAIN DANCE?
WHEN WILL THOSE TINY RAINDROPS FALL?
THE CLOUDS KEEP ON BUILDING AND SWIRLING ‘ROUND
THE DESERT’S PARCHMENT WILL TAKE IT ALL

THE STORM’S FURY IS MAKING HER CALL
BLOWING AROUND TRASH CANS, BRANCHES FALL
ITS CRAZY HOW GREEN THE TREES ARE AGAINST THE SKY
NOW I CAN’T SEE THE MOUNTAINS AT ALL

WHEN DO WE GET TO DO OUR RAIN DANCE?
WHEN WILL THOSE TINY RAINDROPS FALL?
THE CLOUDS KEEP ON BUILDING AND SWIRLING ‘ROUND
THE DESERT’S PARCHMENT WILL TAKE IT ALL

THE LIGHTNING AND THUNDER AGITATE THE MOODY SKY
THE STORM IS APPROACHING DARK AND COLD
RESTLESSLY CHURNING CLOUDS, VIRGA HANGING LOW,
THE RAIN IS BOUND TO COME IN DROVES

IS THIS WHEN WE GET TO DO OUR RAIN DANCE?
IS THIS WHEN THOSE TINY RAINDROPS FALL?
THE CLOUDS KEEP ON BUILDING AND SWIRLING ‘ROUND
THE DESERT’S PARCHMENT WILL TAKE IT ALL

WAIT! CAN YOU SEE THE VARIATION?
PERFORATED LIGHT PIERCES THROUGH THE BLACK
PLEASE DON’T TELL ME OUR LUCK IS BLOWING AWAY
THE LAND WILL STAY THIRSTY ANOTHER DAY

WHEN DO WE GET TO DO OUR RAIN DANCE?
WHEN WILL THOSE TINY RAINDROPS FALL?
THE CLOUDS KEEP ON BUILDING AND SWIRLING ‘ROUND
THE DESERT’S PARCHMENT WILL TAKE IT ALL
