And I wonder, still I wonder
Who shot Lorraine?
And I wonder, still I wonder
Who'll stop the rain?
Birds that sing I'm slaying
Crows had rushed together trying be warned.
Heard the singers playing
The crowd had rushed together trying to keep warm.
Bobby plans a new deal
Wrapped it in golden chains.
Five year plans and new deals
Wrapped in golden chains.
Bobby plans the new year
Wrapped in golden chains.
Five year plans and new deals
Wrapped in golden chains.
Bobby plans to nuke you
Wrapped in golden chains
Five year plans and new deals
Wrapped in golden chains.
Bobby plants the new fields
Wrapped in golden chains.
Five year plans and new deals
Wrapped in golden chains.
Bobby whips Venusians
Wrapped in golden chains.
Five year plans and new deals
Wrapped in golden chains.
Buy me plan for New Year's
Wrapped it in golden chains.
Five year plans and new deals
Wrapped in golden chains.
Buy me plan for New Year's
Wrapped it in golden chains.
Five year plans and new deals
Wrapped in golden chains.
Fabio plans a new deal.
Five year plans and new deals

Five year plans and new deals wrapped in golden chains
Good been to the angels,
I'm the farmer's son
Good men through the ages
Tried to find the sun
Good men through the ages, tryin' to find the one
And I wonder, still I wonder, who'll stop Lorraine?
Good men through the ages, tryin' to find the sun
And I wonder, still I wonder, who'll stop the rain?
Heard the singers saying, 'Now we're here for more!'
The crowd had rushed to get us trying to keep on
Heard the singers playing, now we cheered for more,
The crowd had rushed together trying to keep warm
I went down on Virginia,
seeking shelter from the storm
I went down to Virginia,
seeking shelter from the storm
Obama palms a new deal wrapped in golden chains
Five year plans and new deals wrapped in golden chains.
Editor's note: I'm thinking of purging this one, since this song came out LONG before Obama was known to the public eye. (IOW, the misheard line would be an anachronism.)
Put me through the ages, tryin' to find the sun.
Good men through the ages tried to find the sun.
Still the rain kept fallin'
Vomit on my ear.
Still the rain kept fallin'
Fallin' on my ear.
Who's got the rain
Who'll stop the rain?
Who's got the ring?
Who'll stop the rain?
Babya plans the New Year
Five year plans and new deals
Wrapped in golden chains.
Fallin' on my years
Fallin' on my ears
I watched the tower glow
I watched the tower grow
