What Have They Done to the Rain? Lyrics

von Marianne Faithfull

Just a little rain falling all around
The grass lifts its head to the heavenly sound
Just a little rain, just a little rain
What have they done to the rain?

Just a little boy, standing in the rain
The gentle rain that falls for tears
And the grass is gone, the boy disappears
And rain keeps falling like helpless tears
And what have they done to the rain?

Just a little breeze out of the sky
The leaves nod their heads as the breeze glows by
Just a little breeze with some smoke in its eye
What have they done to the rain?

Just a little boy, standing in the rain
The gentle rain that falls for tears
And the grass is gone, the boy disappears
And rain keeps falling like helpless tears
And what have they done to the rain?
And what have they done to the rain?
