I am the rain Held in disdain Lotions and potions just add to my fame They rhyme that in Spain I fall on the plain Truth is I'm ruthless I can't be contained I am the rain My friend the wind Of breath he is twin Blow high or low High tornados to spin My mother the cloud In widow's black shroud Gives birth to the earth Before fields can be ploughed Up in the sky We've demand to supply I am necessity, base of the recipe I am the rain My cousin the snow Lays blankets below Stateside her flakes are the threads to be sewn My rival the sun He ripens the plum He's feared and revered He gives sight to the gun Up in the sky We've demand to supply I am necessity, base of the recipe Up in the sky We've demand to supply I am necessity, base of the recipe I am the rain Am the rain Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh... I am the rain Who's held in disdain The truth is I'm ruthless, I can't be contained
