Rainy day come my way
I don't think I'll go out
I think I'll stay
like it or not you got what
You got and when you look at yourself
You can see that it's not a lot

All the trees stand silent now
reaching up to heaven with the dead man's bones
They feel like stone
And the blood is cold and when the wind blows
You can hear them moan

What a day to get away
You can't see the shit on the city streets
Now come down look around
All the ugly ducks are swans

Oh yes, I've seen all the things we've made
I've seen sunlight and the shade
I tell you now
That I would trade it all
For just one rainy day

I saw the figure of an old man
Wagging his hand like a metronome
He was bitten by the teeth of the wind
So he wrapped up the wound and he went off home

What a day to get away
You can't see the shit on the city streets
Now come down look around
All the ugly ducks are swans

Oh yes, I've seen all the things we've made
I've seen sunlight and the shade
I tell you now
That I would trade it all
For just one rainy day

Heard the sound of the ships at sea
Calling to each other for a sense of direction
I thought they sounded a bit like me
When I sing a certain way with a certain inflection

What a day to get away
You can't see the shit on the city streets
Now come down look around
All the ugly ducks are swans

Oh yes, I've seen all the things we've made
I've seen sunlight and the shade
I tell you now
That I would trade it all
For just one rainy day
