It Rained Today

This one's for Linus:

Like April showers on the slick cement
When I consider how our light is spend
Keeping the candles inside the cathedrals
Hold on tight, don't go into the night
So full of evil, evil

Rain, rain, don't go away
We need you this dry and dusty day
Rain, rain, don't go away
Though some may say, "please go away."

Like the April showers on the slick cement
And the roads once straight have now become so bent
Weaving through the trees of vain security
Rounding round the hard rocks of hard mortality

Rain, rain, don't go away
We need you this dry and dusty day
Rain, rain, don't go away
Though some may say, "please go away."

And the sacred cows feed on the green
While the least of these are dying in the streets
And they're crying...

Rain, rain, don't go away
We need you this dry and dusty day
Rain, rain, don't go away
Though some may say, "please go away."
