Kris Delmhorst - Weatherman (Kris Delmhorst) Lyrics

I make a really bad umbrella just like I said I would

I'm full of holes and I do not stay put

So don't think I'm keeping you dry it just is not raining yet

When the clouds come to our sky we'll both be soaking wet



I make a really bad clothesline so don't pin your hopes on me

Do not try to tie me tree to tree(etcetera)

I make such a bad clothesline I would not pin nothing on me

ÎCause when you come back for it you might find it's gone in the breeze



And I don't know I don't know I don't know what else you expected me to say

Because I know you know I told you long ago that it would always be this way





I'm not a good lighthouse cause I don't always shine

I make a safe shore so hard to find

I make a really bad anchor just like I told you so

Cause I tend to get dragged and then I tend to let go



And I make a really good lover when there's a clear path to the door

Make a really good listener when I can't talk no more

I make a really good friend when there's an end in sight

I make a really good wrong to your right





You say I live like I'm on ice skates going down a frozen hill

I say baby it has always been like that maybe it always will

And when I said that to you I did not mean to cause you pain

But you can go ahead and blame me like you blame the weatherman for the rain



And I don't know what else you expected me to say

Because I know you know I told you long ago that it would always be this way



I make a really bad umbrella just like I said I would

I'm full of holes and I do not stay put

So don't think I'm keeping you dry it just is not raining yet

When the clouds come to our sky we'll both be soaking wet
