Rainy Day Parade
When all that's sentimental's never what is real
And you have to go with what is true over what you feel
When all that's sacred turns to gold but gold is not what you want
'Cause it reminds you of your friends so easily bought
Don't blame the dark you'll have more to fear when it's day
Don't blame New York it would just be worse in L.A.
Don't blame the sun on the days it goes away
And I'll let you ride in my rainy day parade
When you've more power now than ever but you haven't the time
To do the things you dreamed of doing when you weren't so divine
When you play the part of sinner 'cause a saint goes unloved
But you still fear the dirty business when push comes to shove
Don't blame the dark you'll have more to fear when it's day
Don't blame New York it would just be worse in L.A.
Don't blame the sun on the days it goes away
And I'll let you ride in my rainy day parade
When there's no song that can do justice to your pain
You'll get no sympathy 'cause you've got no shame
When you cut off all your toes just to spite your feet
And that's not near the worst you've done to yourself this week
Don't blame the dark you'll have more to fear when it's day
Don't blame New York it would just be worse in L.A.
Don't blame the sun on the days it goes away
And I'll let you ride in my rainy day parade
