Standing like a fool out in the rain
Waiting for the sun to shine
Nothing's gonna stop this hurricane
You can't even read the signs
Living in your dream world all day long
Tryna milk the sacred cow
You don't even know that something's wrong
You're living in the here and now

I see it coming, I don't need no warning
I see it coming but I dream my life away
I go to sleep and I wake up yawning
I check the weather and start another day

Sitting on an alley in the sun
Looking at the big blue sky
You don't even know which way to run
You will be but you don't know why
No, no
No, no

I see it coming, I don't need no warning
I see it coming but I dream my life away
I go to sleep and I wake up yawning
I check the weather and start another day

Standing like a fool out in the rain
Waiting for the sun to shine
Nothing's gonna stop this hurricane
And you can't even read the signs
Living in your dream world all day long
Tryna milk the sacred cow
You don't even know that something's wrong
You're living in the here and now
No, no
No, no
No, no
