Drip drop
Drip drop
Goes the sound of the rain
Booming thunder and clashing lightning
The world is brightened up
Like putting on a light switch
The lightning put the world on
CLASH!!!!!
The thunder is a stampede
Coming at us
The raindrops are like missiles
Whizzing past our poor ears
Like a camera
The lightning took a picture
Of our horrified faces
Drenched with rain and deaf
From the thunder
We hide for cover
Oh, if only Father Sun felt pity
For our crimes
