Law of the Rain

Audio available soon:


How will I get home when the roads washed away?

The signposts are down in the gutters and drains


And how will I have bread when the butter’s all ruined?

That boy in the kitchen he don’t know what he’s doing


They say that those breaks are the law of the rain

Some souls will stay safe

Some souls wash away

Some stay inside the whole day

And you get what you take under the law of the rain


How will I go straight when there’re so many hours

So many crooks and so many cowards


I'd ask you to stay but the cupboards are bare

I'd ask you to stay but it's not bad out there


They say that those breaks are the law of the rain

The rich will stay warm

The poor wash away

And the rest stay inside the whole day

And you get what you take under the law of the rain


When that water gets to rising

There's only two ways to go

Down below someone's crying

And up above it all it's empty on the high road


They say that those breaks are the law of the rain

The rich will stay warm

The poor wash away

And the rest stay inside the whole day

And you get what you take under the law of the rain
