1000 Umbrellas

Lyrics

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 road map  
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 billion 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
