A Record Year For Rainfall

	I read in the paper today
	It’s been a record year for rainfall
	And you were leaning ‘gainst the bathroom wall
	In your lonely dress
	Was your only dress
	Stand accusing across
	I got a temper set for tinder
	And you were shrugging it off like a feather
	Saying, “Oh
	Would you look at this weather?”
	What’s the use of all of this?
	It’s to remember you in the entire
	Cause I’m watching it slip away
	And in the annals of the empire
	Did it look this grey
	Before the fall?
	Before the fall
	So rake your thumbnail across
	The stretch of the patina
	Revealing a Proserpina
	In a low recline
	In a steep decline
	What’s the use of all of this?
	It’s to remember you in the entire
	Cause I’m watching it slip away
	And in the annals of the empire
	Did it look this grey
	Does it look so grey
	Does it always look so grey
	Before the fall?
	Before the fall
