It Never Rains

(3x) I hear the seven deadly sins and the terrible twins came to call on you You had no more volunteers, so you got profiteers for to help you out The bigger they are baby, the harder they fall on you Well with friends like that babe, good friends you had to do without, And you were always the same, you persevere,  on the same old pleasure ground And now they've taken the chains and the gears from off the old merry-go-round, Oh and it never rains  around here, it just comes pouring down It never rains around here, it just comes pouring down. (Au Pont) (au 2e couplet) Pont : Now your new Romeo, he was just a gigolo, when he let you down, See the faster the are babe, the faster they get out of town Leaving make up stains and the tears of a clown,        And it never rains      around here, it just comes pouring down Oh you were just a rollercoaster memory, I don't know why I was even passing through,      In the shadow of the Wheel of Fortune you're busy trying to clear your name, See we could have been major contenders, we never got no money no breaks And he's just a-standing in the shadows and you smile that come-on smile I saw you make a date with destiny, when he came around here asking after you You say, "I may be guilty yeah, that may be true, but I'd be lying if I said I was to blame" You got a list of all the major offenders, you got a list of all their major mistakes. Oh and I can still hear you say as clear as the day, "I'd like to make it worth your while." Ah but it's a sad reminder when your organ grinder has to come to you for the rent And all you've got to give him is the use of your side-show tent Yes and that's all that remains    of the years spent doing the rounds   And it never rains      around here, it just comes pouring down Now you know what they say about beggars, you can't complain about the rules,          Now you know what they say about beggars, you know who's the first to blame his tools
