Far across the world a moth is flapping its wings In a ditch somewhere some kid is growing Rain along the roof it's sunny somewhere else Up in clintonville it's started snowing Rain in the gutter and a toy boat capsizes As a sailboat capsizes in the ocean Things are silent sitting in the basement here We're spinning too fast to feel the motion Squash a bee it stings you and your finger swells From the cemetery you hear wedding bells Couples making love as a mother tells Her son about the stork His daddy pops the cork Off a bottle of champagne And it's raining It's raining It's raining It's raining Cars are driving some are parked and some are crashed They don't look like much up in an airplane Delphiniums are drowning on the porch at home Pre-packaged in a basket with cellophane Rain in the gutter and a toy boat capsizes As a sailboat capsizes in the ocean Things are silent sitting in the basement here We're spinning too fast to feel the motion A tidal wave in asia k**s a million fish Everybody has to die but you still wish What on earth is happening in the playground Some kid things he's found A hole in the ground That reaches to japan And it's raining It's raining It's raining It's raining It's raining Raining
