(T. Waits/K. Brennan) Jalma Music (ASCAP)      Will you take me across the Channel   London Bridge is falling down   strange, a woman tries to save   more than a man will try to drown   and it's the rain that they predicted   it's the forecast ev'ry time   the rose has died because you picked it,   I believe that brandy's mine      And all over the world   strangers talk only about the weather   All over the world it's the same,   it's the same!      And the world is getting flatter   and the sky is falling all around   oh, and nothing is the matter   for I'll never cry in town   and a love like ours, my dear,   is best measured when it's down   and I never buy umbrellas   Ôcause there's always one around      And you know that it's beginning   and you know that it's the end   once again we are strangers   as the fog goes rolling in      and all over the world   strangers talk only about the weather   All over the world it's the same,   it's the same!   It's the same!
