(Oh) Like April Showers on the slick cement

When I consider how our light is spent

Keeping the candles inside the cathedrals

Hold on tight, Don't go into the night

So full of evil, evil



(Chorus)

Rain rain don't go away

(Oh) We need you this dry and dusty day

Rain rain don't go away

Though some may say please go away



(Oh) 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 morality



(Chorus) x 2



And the sacred cows

Feed on the green

While the least of these

Are dying in the streets

And they're crying...



(Chorus) x 2



(Oh) Like April Showers on the slick cement
