The days are short
It always looks like night
And I hide under the covers
The TV's on at the foot of the bed
I watch stories of other lovers
This isolation, it's such a drag
Seems to last an eternity
I want to go out but why should I bother
There's nothing out there for me
It's cold and wet
It's as raw as it can get
And it's been that way all year
I hope and pray
That the gray will go away
But it's always winter here
There is murder out in the streets
People doing terrible deeds
Wish I didn't know that no grass will grow
'Cause it's been taken over by weeds
The temperature's falling
Not gonna rebound
At least that's what the forecasters say
Hasn't been like this since the last ice age
And it looks to remain this way
Got my supplies and I got my books
Even got my favorite DVDs
I got no plans
Got nowhere to go
I think I'll do just what I please
Rain, rain go away
Rain, rain
Come again another day
