[Intro]
Clouds are gathering
(Here they come)
Thunder’s rattling
(What have we done?)
[Verse 1]
Man walked out beneath the sky
Thought he knew the way
(Not really knowin’ why)
Built a world of steel and stone
(All alone… on his throne)
And harmed ‘er day by day
[Refrain]
Man,
(You brought the reign)
You bought the rain
Man, oh, man
(That ain’t no plan)
… ya can’t start over again
Man,
(You brought on the pain)
You bought the rain
[Verse 2]
Rainman, Rainman
What did you expect?
You changed what was clear
To doom and fear
[Chorus]
You bought the rain!
(Bought the rain!)
You brought the pain!
(Brought the pain!)
Round and round
The energy goes
Down it falls
And up it flows
Rainman!
(Oh, Rainman!)
Look what you’ve done!
The reckoning has started
And the runoff’s on the run
[Bridge]
Reign or rain?
(Rain or reign?)
Who’s in control?
(What’s your role?)
You changed the game
(It’s not the same!)
… a heavy toll
[Breakdown]
Man!
(Oh, man!)
Round and round
The world turns
Yet, we’re hellbound…
To burn
(Burn, burn, burn, burn)
[Instrumental]
[Pounding piano]
[Howling guitar]
[Rolling drums]
[Final Chorus]
Rainman!
(You brought the reign!)
You bought the rain!
(Bought the rain!)
Rainman!
(Oh, can’t you see?)
The energy
(Is coming down on me!)
Man, oh, man
(That ain’t no plan)
You changed the atmosphere
(To one of tears and fear)
[Refrain]
Man,
(You brought the reign)
You bought the rain
Man, oh, man
(That ain’t no plan)
… ya can’t start over again
Man,
(You brought on the pain)
You bought the rain
[Outro]
Rainman…
(Rainman…)
Look to the sky
(Now, you know why)
No more denial
(You can’t hide)
You bought the rain.
(Now it’s your ride)
