Rain, rain, go away Come again another day Rain, rain, go away, go away Verse 1: I heard you been singin' "Rain, rain, go away" Wishin' you could make the pain, pain go away You need a llittle more time like Morris Day And your life was the bomb, now you're blown away And you can't make a dime on a dollar disc Goin' dumb so you can't get a scholarship When you're young, it's all good, life ahead of you 'Til you started thinkin' "Man, I would like a better view A house with a wetter pool..."

In the Animal House or the lion's den Where they're swingin' those bows like a violin They look tired like they're close to retirement Peer pressure, man, everyone's tryin' it I hear pressure can even make di-a-monds Out of coal -- hold up, lemme find some then Because I feel like I'm carryin' the world's weight Sick of herbs treatin' me like I'm third rate I tried to make a good impression like a first date For some reason, that was one thing I could never do You don't get a second chance, man You gotta make a mark from the start At the end you just hope they remember you...
