about

Ken Plume asked that I try to shadow at least a round of Song Fu 6 as the resident Master, so I did.

The challenge ran thusly:
Write a song that is about (or at least has key to the central narrative) RAIN (the meteorological phenomena). At some point (or throughout) the song, you must utilize an instrument (or vocals) that represent the rain.

(I chose Shakey Egg as my *rain*)

lyrics

You fin'lly made the call
The one I didn't want to hear at all,
That you decided
realised that
you could get along without me.

You tore my heart in two
shattered all the faith I had in you
broke my mind
my eyes were blind
I had to go outside...

In the rain...
Let the rain fall on me, hide my tears in the rain...
Throw the sadness from me, drown my fears in the rain.

So what can I do now?
I know I gotta get along somehow.
I'm tired of Staring at the Moon
and never knowing quite what to say.

I see Today's the Day,
for Happiness as You Throw Me Away
and though it's plain
Mistakes Were Made
my guilt is washed away...

In the rain...
Let the rain fall on me, hide my tears in the rain...
Throw the sadness from me, drown my fears in the rain.
From the sky above me bring my peace...
... in the rain.

I know I must move on,
I gotta find a way to get along
but 'till I do
I'll dream of you
and have to live my life...

In the rain...
Let the rain fall on me, hide my tears in the rain...
Throw the sadness from me, drown my fears in the rain.
From the sky above me bring my peace...
... in the rain.

(repeat to fade)
