Lyrics

THE RAIN IS COMING


THE LIGHTNING DANCES ALL OVER THE SKY.
THE TROPICAL WIND BLOWS AND SOUNDS LIKE A SIGH.
THE MONKEYS STOP SWINGING, THE BIRDS STOP SINGING,
AND EVERYTHING GROWS STILL.

THEN CRASH, THE THUNDER STRIKES LIKE A DRUM.
YOU'D BETTER HIDE, YOU'D BETTER RUN, BECAUSE
THE RAIN IS COMING, THE RAIN IS COMING, THE RAIN IS COMING.

THE RAIN POURS DOWN AND POUNDS ON THE LEAVES,
RIVERS OF RAIN RUSH TO THE SEA,
THE RAIN COMES DOWN JUST LIKE A WALL,
ROARING LIKE A WATER FALL, AND THE RAIN IS KEEP COMING, THE RAIN IS COMING.

THEN THE CLOUDS THEY PART AND THE SUN PEAKS THROUGH. THE RAIN DROPS SHINNING LIKE A BILLION JEWELS. THE MONKEYS START SWING, THE BIRDS START SINGING AND IT STARTS ALL OVER AGAIN.

THE RAIN IS COMING. THE RAIN IS COMING. THE RAIN IS COMING.
