it's raining down in Eastern Pawtucket

it's raining down in Philly, too

stood outside praying to get wet

and I ended up with mud all over my shoes



Crazy Bobby on the water tower

spraying bullets and catching flies

he got no victims, he got no targets

no competition so he took first prize



oh lord, it's hard to rely

when everything you need is falling from the sky



live telecast of the Academy Awards

every nomination was mine

started laughing, started shaking hands

when a write-in vote took me down 10 to 9

got me a brand-new '57 Chevy

it's got no tires but it stops on a dime

why change the water, man, why change the oil?

why change a thing when everything is fine?

well, Chicken Little met the Jolly Green Giant

coming home from the fair

Chicken Little said to the Jolly Green Giant

man, you should have seen what I seen there

there were 20 blackbirds and 17 pigeons

they were baking down in a pie

I took a bite, man I started running

when it started coming down from the sky
