Orange and lemon Raincoats roll and tumble Together, just liked fruit tipped from a tray Pineapple wet heads Watch new hairdos crumble As scenery sunlight shifts away [Refrain] Ballet for a rainy day Silent film of melting miracle play Apples and cherries Are varnished in water Despite, striped awnings bright dismay I push my paintbrush To conjure a new world While this one is slowly washed away [Chorus] Ballet for a rainy day Silent film of melting miracle play Dancing out there through my window To the backdrop of a slow descending grey [Bridge] When it rains, it rains All the colors in my paintbox When it rains, it rains Tickets for the front row seats Up on the rooftops Orange and lemon Raincoats roll and tumble Together, dropped in diamond disarray [Chorus] Ballet for a rainy day Silent film of melting miracle play Dancing out there through my window Behind the curtain silver falling Ballet for a rainy day Silent film of melting miracle play Dancing out there through my window To the backdrop of a slow descending grey
