(v1:s3) STATUE IN THE RAIN

STATUE IN THE RAIN (official video)

- is about poverty in the land of plenty

LYRICS

It's Monday night at the laundry mat

It's a hundred and five maybe more than that

There's really no point in thinking anymore

I'm getting drunk on paper bag wine

Another bum wouldn't spare me a dime

I think a Disney princess just passed out on the floor

Can't move can't speak

Can't laugh can't weep

I'm a statue in the rain

No hope no fear No joy no tear

I'm a statue in the rain

Statue in rain

I'd rather live up high on a cul-de-sac

Get good and fat and have a cardiac

But with dumb blond luck I could never score

I'd drink tea by a blue and fragrant sea

China and a silver spoon if you please

Cause self restraint is such a chore

Can't move can't speak

Can't laugh can't weep

I'm a statue in the rain

No hope no fear No joy no tear

I'm a statue in the rain

Statue in rain

Well up in heaven there's a railway train

With all the gifts of heaven it's carrying

The train mans been drinking

He's sleeping at the switch

And down on earth I am waiting

For some of what that train is carrying

But a hundred prayers and he don't twitch

Can't move can't speak

Can't laugh can't weep

I'm a statue in the rain

No hope no fear No joy no tear

I'm a statue in the rain

Statue in rain
