(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
