lyrics

A Cold Rain’s Coming
By Forrest Hill

There's thunder in the White House
And crying in the news
The atmosphere is burning
The futures got the flu
There's karma on the pavement
The bills are coming due
There's no use in hiding
Cause the jokers on the loose
We're looking at our cell phones
To see what we should do
Cause a cold rain’s coming,
a cold rain’s coming,
a cold rain’s coming

40 days
and 40 nights
The men in trench coats
Shake their gospel of light
And the wind can't hold
The spirit of their spite
And the sun won't save us
From the burning bush, tonight
We know something must happening
But can we get it right
Cause a cold rain’s coming,
a cold rain’s coming,
a cold rain’s coming

The chandelier is broken
There's darkness in the hall
The sidewalks are cracking
The writings on the wall
And who really knows
What the Germans saw
When the brown shirts were marching
To the siren's call
And you don't want to be here
When the ceiling falls
Cause a cold rain’s coming,
a cold rain’s coming,
a cold rain’s coming

Won't you come out and play
Won't you come out today
And dance in the rain while the rivers are flooding again

Come little children
Run while you can
The voice of the serpent
Is making its demands
And hate's not the answer
So love while you can
But don't turn a blind eye
To the power in the land
There's chaos in the temple
So come lend a hand
Cause a cold rain’s coming,
a cold rain’s coming,
a cold rain’s coming
