Can someone explain "No Rain" to me?
Lyrics:
All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
I like watchin’ the puddles gather rain
And all I can do is just pour some tea for two
and speak my point of view
But it’s not sane, It’s not sane
I just want some one to say to me
I’ll always be there when you wake
Ya know I’d like to keep my cheeks dry today
So stay with me and I’ll have it made
And I don’t understand why I sleep all day
And I start to complain that there’s no rain
And all I can do is read a book to stay awake
It rips my life away, but it’s a great escape
escape, escape
All I can say is that my life is pretty plain
ya don’t like my point of view
ya think I’m insane
Its not sane, it’s not sane
I just want someone to say to me
I’ll always be there when you wake
Ya know I’d like to keep my cheeks dry today
so stay with me and I’ll have it made

2. That's a sweet song
If I remember correctly it was a song that one of the guys in the band wrote for his girlfriend.

7. It's lousy hippy nonsense written by a junkie.
Were you expecting Shakespeare?

9. That song is like patchouli for me.
I hear it and I am driven into a blind rage. Chairs start flying.
Frickin' hippies.

10. i'm with you re: no love for the hippies
but I can't agree on the song. real hippies don't like that song, real hippies listen to crap like the grateful dead, phish, and other bands with songs that run longer than albums have any right to and should only be listened to while you are high :evilgrin:
