Rainmaker
ゥ Zondrae King (Corrimal) 05/07

I値l make it rain, just watch me now.
I値l make it rain. I値l tell you how.
To start I値l wash the kitchen floor
and polish it right to the door.

I値l make it rain it never fails.
I値l slip the curtains from the rails
and wash them, each and every one
then hang them out. It痴 never fun.

I値l make it rain. I値l take a broom
dust outside windows of each room.
I値l clear each cobweb from their sills.
remove the debris, clear the grills.

I値l make it rain and it痴 not hard.
I値l plan a party in the yard
with thirty kids from 10 奏il 2.
I値l book a clown and barbeque.

I値l make it rain. I値l wash the car
and make it shine just like a star.
With wat池ing can, bucket and mop
then chamois it. Dry off each drop.

I値l organize throughout the land
an army to give me a hand.
We値l synchronize all folks about
to work as one to break this drought.

Then not only will we have water
but things will sparkle as they oughter.
I値l make it rain then hear the proof
of downpours drumming on my roof.

Hi Zondrae,

Good one there. I don't know how it works, but there's a ring of truth to it. I know from experience.

Cheers,

Tom
