Lyrics Peter Doherty - I Am The Rain

I am the rain
Held in disdain
Lotions and potions just add to my fame

They rhyme that in Spain
I fall on the plain
Truth is I'm ruthless
I can't be contained

I am the rain

My friend the wind
Of breath he is twin
Blow high or low
High tornados to spin

My mother the cloud
In widow's black shroud
Gives birth to the earth
Before fields can be ploughed

Up in the sky
We've demand to supply
I am necessity, base of the recipe
I am the rain

My cousin the snow
Lays blankets below
Stateside her flakes are the threads to be sewn

My rival the sun
He ripens the plum
He's feared and revered
He gives sight to the gun

Up in the sky
We've demand to supply
I am necessity, base of the recipe

Up in the sky
We've demand to supply
I am necessity, base of the recipe
I am the rain
Am the rain

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh...

I am the rain
Who's held in disdain
The truth is I'm ruthless, I can't be contained
