Rain, rain, rain,
Its raining so you can’t see your hand in front of your face. . .
Rain, rain, rain
The Pueblo’s concrete, nothing soaks away. . .
Rain, rain, rain,
The water shoots straight off the roofs into the street . . .
Rain, rain, rain
The terraces turn to waterfalls. They overflow into the one below. . .
Rain, rain, rain,
Can’t get up to the bar. The steps are torrents, the patios are rock pools. . .
Rain, rain, rain,
The storm-drain’s blocked by a tree, the streets are mud slurries. . .
Rain, rain, rain,
Someone parked his car on the river bed. Its sailing away to Torre . . .
Rain, rain, rain,
Everyone’s laughing, everyone’s waving, everyone’s wet. . .
Rain, rain, rain.
