"What Have They Done To The Rain" lyrics - MARIANNE FAITHFULL

Just a little rain falling all around,
The grass lifts its head to the heavenly sound.
Just a little rain, just a little rain,
What have they done to the rain?

Just a little boy, standing in the rain,
A gentle rain that falls for years.
And the grass is gone, the boy disappears,
And rain keeps falling like helpless tears
And what have they done to the rain?

Just a little breeze out of the sky,

The leaves nod their head as the breeze blows by.
Just a little breeze with some smoke in its eye,
What have they done to the rain?

Just a little boy, standing in the rain,
A gentle rain that falls for years.
And the grass is gone, the boy disappears,
And rain keeps falling like helpless tears
And what have they done to the rain?
And what have they done to the rain?
