(Oh) Like April Showers on the slick cement    When I consider how our light is spent    Keeping the candles inside the cathedrals   Hold on tight, Don't go into the night    So full of evil, evil      (Chorus)   Rain rain don't go away    (Oh) We need you this dry and dusty day    Rain rain don't go away    Though some may say please go away       (Oh) Like the April Showers on the slick cement    And the roads once straight have now become so bent    Weaving through the trees of vain security    Rounding round the hard rocks of hard morality       (Chorus) x 2      And the sacred cows    Feed on the green    While the least of these    Are dying in the streets    And they're crying...      (Chorus) x 2      (Oh) Like April Showers on the slick cement
