Description
The image that came to mind with Rain was "Dogs Playing Poker." I envisioned all of these characters, "Rain," "Shame," "Lies," all sitting around waiting to start playing when they find out that their friend "Maimed" has recently died and "Blame" has escaped. Its a commentary on how we are enamoured of "passing the buck."
Lyrics
Rain Smells like rain Couldn’t anyone find anyone To play? Rain In the flesh Says, “Haven’t you done quite enough Today?” Oh, I Wanted to live like Sunshine. Oh, why Couldn’t you just Make up your mind One more time? Shame Arrives today Shouldn’t someone go meet him at The gate? Lies Says, “He’ll be fine” Oh, what a pretty photograph We make. Oh, I Wanted to live like Pantomime But I couldn’t just Behead myself like that Even for you. Maimed Died today Doesn’t anyone have anything To say? Blame Has escaped Shouldn’t someone put her Away?
