Many thanks

The clouds are heavy after too much sun
Enjoying themselves just like everyone
Got caught a little, they now need relief
To loosen their load and cause mischief
Like a pressure cooker about to explode
The temperatures rising before the download
So bring it on, let the downpour begin
The needle spun and I’m soaked the skin
There’s no end in sight, I think I’m going to drown
In the summer rain - on the hillside, the valleys and the towns
There’s damp on my brow, my clothes dripping wet
Its so oppressive and sweat down my back
I can taste the moisture, I can feel the heat
When will it stop and give us release?
Like a pressure cooker about to explode
The temperatures rising before the download
So bring it on, let the downpour begin
The needle spun and I’m soaked the skin
There’s no end in sight, I think I’m going to drown
In the summer rain - on the hillside, the valleys and the towns
Pregnant like a saddleback, bursting at the seams
Cumulonimbus
Let your babies go, let them all be free
What goes round comes around. They’ll return safe you’ll see
Here come the gods and their weapons of war
They got it bad, got to even the score
Freya and Zues, Mariamman and Thor
Thunder and lightening like never before
So bring it on, let the downpour begin
The needle spun and I’m soaked the skin
There’s no end in sight, I think I’m going to drown
In the summer rain - on the hillside, the valleys and the towns
