In a fluid notion
  give away your best
  make a forward motion
  and in the heat undress
  nearly forty hours
  it's a living death
  if we could only catch our
  breath
  
  when your tears and laughter fall like rain
  turn around and things still look the same
  
  time to make an entry
  in the book of life
  maybe the animal-husband
  or the good midwife
  in the current rhythm
  now the feet are bare
  and the luscious diamond
  there
  
  when your tears and laughter fall like rain
  turn around and things still look the same
  let it happen now or never
  a day like this won't last forever
  now your tears and laughter fall like rain
  
  under a sad mistaken
  get yourself a rash
  of mysterious break-ins
  better watch your trash
  and before the weekend
  can you close the deal?
  tell me are your freak friends
  for real?
  
  when your tears and laugher fall like rain
  turn around and things still look the same
  let it happen now or never
  a day like this won't last forever
  now youre tears and laughter fall like rain
