It Ain’t Gonna Rain

Songwriter: Monica Zucker
Gaggle: Seattle
Environment & Energy

CHORUS (with audience)

It ain’t gonna rain no more, no more!

It ain’t gonna rain no more!

How in the heck

Can I wash my neck

If it ain’t gonna rain no more?

It ain’t gonna rain no more, no more!

Turn the lights down, cut the heat.

Stop watering the lawn,

Tell the salmon not to spawn,

Cause it ain’t gonna rain no more!

(CHORUS)

It ain’t gonna rain no more, no more!
You’re gonna pay the price.
Governor has warned ya
Power’s gone to California,
And it ain’t gonna rain no more!

(CHORUS)

It ain’t gonna rain no more, no more!

California cooked its goose.

They deregulated power

And now they’re taking ours,

And it ain’t gonna rain no more!

(CHORUS)

It ain’t gonna rain no more, no more!

Texas oil men made a steal.

Bush’s pals took out the cash

Letting small producers crash,

And it ain’t gonna rain no more!

(CHORUS)

It ain’t gonna rain no more, no more!
We must drill the Arctic wilds.
Corporate greed gets the money
If the weather stays sunny,
And it ain’t gonna rain no more!

(CHORUS)

It ain’t gonna rain no more, no more!

Can Seattle be the same?

Now the pampered folks at Boeing

Say so long we must be going!

And it ain’t gonna rain no more!

It ain’t gonna rain no more, no more!

It ain’t gonna rain no more

Why in the deuce should I lose my juice…

How in hell can my condo dig a well…

We’ll pay through the nose if we turn on the hose…

How in the heck

Can I wash my neck

If it ain’t gonna rain no more!
