It’s like that sometimes – you go for months without being able to spend much time in the studio, then suddenly you have a free afternoon and yr punching them out like cookies.

In other words, fans, there is new music from Banäna Deäthmüffins now available.

Starting with this one, which is about rain. Because how songs are there about weather? Not a lot, we figure. Or at least not about the weather’s general indifference to insane Facebook memes.

This is also our sorta-kinda tribute to Lou Reed (although we wrote it well before Reed passed on late last year), with a little Jeff Lynne thrown in. Because if there’s one thing we learned from listening to old ELO records, it’s that any good song about weather needs lots and lots of echo.

And sound effects!

LYRICS SHEET

CHORUS

The rain came down
It came down so hard
It came down by the inch
It came down by the yard
It came down by the quart
It came down by the pound
Oh the rain came down

The rain don’t care if yr conservative or liberal 
The rain don’t care if yr a Muslim or a Jew
The rain don’t care if yr black, white or red all over
The rain is still gonna come down on you

The rain don’t care about yr favorite sports team
The rain don’t care about what flag you salute
The rain don’t care about sequesters or the deficit
All it wants is to rain all over you

CHORUS

The rain don’t care if yr straight or gay or bi
The rain don’t care who wants to marry who
The rain don’t care what others think about yr sex appeal
The rain is still gonna come down on you

The rain is not impressed with yr patriotic zeal
The rain is not impressed with yr kung fu
The rain is not impressed with yr insane Facebook memes
They won’t keep the rain from raining down on you

CHORUS

BRIDGE

There ain’t nobody gonna get out of the rain
Nobody’s gonna spin it for personal or political gain
There’s no escape! Everyone’s gonna get wet
Bring an umbrella! Yr gonna need it!

LEAD BREAK

The rain don’t care if yr rich and famous
The rain don’t care if yr Captain Kangaroo
The rain don’t care if yr the 1 or the 99
The rain is still gonna come down on you

The rain don’t care what country you were born in
The rain don’t care if yr state is red or blue
The rain don’t care about yr Bibles or yr guns
All it cares about is raining all over you
