looks like rain

your aspirations flew like flies

you took the planet by surprise

you truly believed

but of course you'd been deceived

it's an age of alienation

of a downbeat generation

so much for liberation

it looks like rain to me

in a drug infected haze

you attacked the bourgeois ways

and felt so relieved

but consider what you leave

i loved but knew not who

belonged but not to you

i'm a man of modern hue

like an indian summer sky

i can kiss this dream goodbye

so long to the blue

there's a shadow over you

it's an age of your creation

of a disunited nation

so much for your invasion

it looks like rain to me
