Strange Weather [Big Time] Tom Waits

Will you take me across the channel
London Bridge is falling down
Strange a woman tries to save
More than a man will try to drown

And it's the rain that they predicted
It's the forecast every time
The rose has died because you picked it
I believe that brandy's mine

And all over the world
Strangers talk only about the weather
All over the world
It's the same
It's the same

And the world is getting flatter
And the sky is falling all around
Oh and nothing is the matter
For I'll never cry in town

And a love like ours my dear
Is best measured when it's down
And I never buy umbrellas
Cause there's always one around
