A pop punk feminist anthem, Rain is three minutes twenty seconds of explosive energy and attitude.

lyrics

I was standing but I should've been sinking
I was wracking my brain
I was really thinking it through, about you

How the things we want most never seem to happen
but the things we never cared about are all we can imagine It's true, and we're blue

Feel the rain fall down on you See the rain fall down on me too on me too

What's a girl to do when she's only 22
and they tell her that her best years are slipping out of view?

Better get a job, better get married, better have babies cause there's nothing else saving you

Feel the rain fall down on you See the rain fall down on me too on me too

You whistle softly as you walk, sometimes you smile too
No one can discover you
A smile that hides a heart that prides itself on getting by
But when it’s no fun getting by cause you’ve watched your dreams all die
And the planet’s gonna fry
You’ll just hang your head and cry

Feel the rain fall down on you See the rain fall down on me too on me too
