Oh it’s raining again
And my next door neighbour he won’t stop
Complaining again
Over things that don’t even matter to him
But if the sun was shining, he would be likely smiling
And I wouldn’t have to listen to his
Constant “yippa-yappa” all day every day
Cause he'd be watering his flowers
Keeping him busy for hours
I love the old boy
But he’s a nightmare when it showers
I need a great British summer
I’m feeling down, feeling lower than the weather
With sun it’ll make it all better
Get some Vitamin D for your temper
And where are my friends?
Why when it rains does everybody stay in?
Trapped in a room I’ll book a holiday
But anywhere else it just don’t feel the same
Only when everyone’s happy and the banter’s great
I’m gonna buy a paddling pool
So everybody stop being miserable
We can use the central heating
And grab the umbrellas to cover the seating
We’ll have a few for a couple of hours
And we won’t care about the showers
If the summer ain’t here right now
We'll bring it to the UK somehow.
