What good is that happy lie All you wanted from the start was to cry Well, it looks like another fall My friends they don't help at all And I'm feeling kind of cold and small Think I'll look up my rainy day man And it does me no good to pretend When he's made a hole much too big to mend And it looks like I lose again my friend Guess I'll have to look up my rainy day man Rainy day man he don't like sunshine Don't chase rainbows he don't need good times Gray days roll in and then you'll see him It's an empty feelin', now I need him All those noble thoughts they don't belong If you can't hide the truth with a happy song And since I knew where I stood all along Think I'll look up my rainy day man Simple pleasures all evade you And the store-bought treasures but none can save you Look for signs to ease the pain I said, "Ask again why don't you pray for rain" Oh, it looks like another fall And my friends they don't help at all And I'm feeling kind of cold and small Think I'll look up my rainy day man All I have to do is look at my baby Look up my rainy day man Ooh, look up my rainy day man All I have to do Look up my rainy day man
