lyrics
Verse 1
Looking out my window, I see grey clouds and they are coming my way
So much for this picnic lunch it’ll have to wait
I’ll throw on my raincoat it’ll keep my dry
But it won’t stop the rain falling from the sky
I should have listened to the Weather Man
Verse 2
The lawn is a hayfield where the dandelions bloom and the buttercups sing
All around is a white picket fence, the paint has chipped off clean
I’ll paint it tomorrow if the sun shines
Til then I think I’ll just go inside
I should have listened to the Weather Man 2x
Bridge
I should have listened to what he said
Cause now I’m lying here on my bed
I’m watching the rain fall
But I don’t mind it at all
I should have listened to the Weather Man 2x
Verse 3
Looking out my window I see blue skies and they’re breaking through
All the earthworms do a sundance while the butterflies flew
Though I could stay inside, instead,
I’d rather sleep in the rose’s bed
I should have listened to the Weather Man 2x
Looking out my window, I see grey clouds and they are coming my way
So much for this picnic lunch it’ll have to wait
I’ll throw on my raincoat it’ll keep my dry
But it won’t stop the rain falling from the sky
I should have listened to the Weather Man
Verse 2
The lawn is a hayfield where the dandelions bloom and the buttercups sing
All around is a white picket fence, the paint has chipped off clean
I’ll paint it tomorrow if the sun shines
Til then I think I’ll just go inside
I should have listened to the Weather Man 2x
Bridge
I should have listened to what he said
Cause now I’m lying here on my bed
I’m watching the rain fall
But I don’t mind it at all
I should have listened to the Weather Man 2x
Verse 3
Looking out my window I see blue skies and they’re breaking through
All the earthworms do a sundance while the butterflies flew
Though I could stay inside, instead,
I’d rather sleep in the rose’s bed
I should have listened to the Weather Man 2x
