Lyrics:Orange and lemon
Raincoats roll and tumble
Together, just liked fruit tipped from a
tray
Pineapple wet heads
Watch new hairdos crumble
As scenery sunlight shifts
away
Ballet for a rainy day
Silent film of melting miracle play
Apples and
cherries
Are varnished in water
Despite, striped awnings bright dismay
I push
my paintbrush
To conjure a new world
While this one is slowly washed away

Ballet for a rainy day
Silent film of melting miracle play
Dancing out there through
my window
To the backdrop of a slow descending grey
When it rains it rains
All
the colors in my paintbox
When it rains it rains
Tickets for the front row seats

Up on the rooftops
Orange and lemon
Raincoats roll and tumble
apples
and cherries
Together, dropped in diamond disarray
Ballet for a rainy day

Silent film of melting miracle play
Dancing out there through my window
Behind the
curtain silver falling
Ballet for a rainy day
Silent film of melting miracle play

Dancing out there through my window
To the backdrop of a slow descending grey
