Don't sing in the pouring rain.
Don't stand in the pouring rain.
Don't sleep in the subway dummy
Don't sleep in the subway darling
I've heard it all a million time before
Take off your clothes, lie down, and close the door.
I've heard it all a million time before
Take off your coat, my love, and close the door.
Take off your clothes, my love and close the door.
Take off your coat, my love and close the door.
The night is lonely.
The night is long.
You wander around on your own little cloud
When you don't see the wine or the weapon.
You wander around on your own little cloud
When you don't see the why or the wherefore.
You wander around on your own little clown
When you don't see the 'Y' on the airport
or
You wander around on your own little clown
When you don't see the wine on the airport.
You wander around on your own little cloud
When you don't see the why or the wherefore.
