Drinking in the Rain

Lyrics
Grab your hat, grab your coat Though the weather’s looking bleak We’re still heading out into town It’s safe to say this has been a bit of a week And we could use a way to wind down They’re forecasting downpours, the outlook is grim But that isn’t a problem for me If the drinks are flowing and we can shelter from the wind I’d like the pleasure of your company The pubs will be buzzing, all the restaurants packed And we won’t get a table inside But with weather like this, if we don’t mind getting wet The garden furniture will be unoccupied Drinking in the rain When the British summer’s disappointing again But we have never been the types to complain Drinking in the rain Everyone went in, so we’re the only ones who remain We’ll wash our worries away down the drain Drinking in the rain The marquee’s overrun, the smoking shelters are rammed So we’ll have to make the best of it out here But if you cradle your gla** just inside of your coat Then the heavens won’t top up your beer Just wipe down that chair with a napkin or sleeve And pour that flooded ashtray in the bin! And move that leftover food to that empty table So the revelry can begin Though its windy and cold, and my clothes are sodden Its not the worst that we have seen by far! We’ll huddle together just the best that we can Under the brolly they gave us at the bar! Drinking in the rain Though the soaking wet trousers are a bit of a pain We’ll happily do this again Drinking in the rain Perhaps we’d have stayed home if we only had half a brain It’s a familiar old refrain Drinking in the rain It's quiet liberating! When you choose to ignore The desire to keep dry and warm If you want to keep plans, it’s just not practical To avoid every single rainstorm Drinking in the rain Trying hard to keep entertained And we can certainly bust out the champagne Drinking in the rain If it not your bag, then you don’t really have to explain It’s your prerogative to abstain Drinking in the rain When the British summer’s disappointing again But we have never been the types to complain Drinking in the rain Everyone went in, so we’re the only ones who remain We’ll wash our worries away down the drain Drinking in the rain
