1000 Umbrellas |
| One thousand umbrellas |
| Upturned couldn’t catch all the rain |
| That drained out of my head |
| When you said we were |
| Over and over I cried |
| 'Til I floated downstream |
| To a town they call |
| Misery, oh oh misery |
| Misery oh oh misery |
| And one million teacups |
| I bet couldn’t hold all the wet |
| That fell out of my eyes |
| When you fell out with me |
| Now I’m crawling the wallpaper |
| That’s looking more like a roadmap |
| To misery, oh oh misery |
| How can you smile and forecast |
| Weather’s getting better |
| And you’ll soon forget her |
| If you let the sunshine come through |
| How can you smile and forecast |
| Weather’s getting better |
| If you never let a girl rain all over you |
| And just when I thought that my vista was golden in hue |
| One thousand umbrellas opened to spoil the view |
| One million salt seas |
| Recalled from school atlas |
| Alas, would be filled to the brim |
| Sunny Jim couldn’t jump it |
| How can I be pleased |
| When I’m handed the keys |
| To a town they call Misery |
| Oh oh Misery |
| So with a mop and a bucket |
| I’ll just say forget her |
| And carry on sweeping up |
| Where I’ve been weeping |
| The Jesters will creep in |
| To strike down the newly crowned Monarch |
| Of Misery, oh oh Misery |
| How can you smile and forecast |
| Weather’s getting better |
| And you’ll soon forget her |
| If you let the sunshine come through |
| How can you smile and forecast |
| Weather’s getting better |
| If you never let a girl rain all over you |
| Just when I thought that my skies were a June July blue |
| One thousand umbrellas opened |
| Two thousand umbrellas opened |
| Ten thousand umbrellas opened to spoil the view |
