1000 Umbrellas Lyrics


1000 umbrellas
Upturned couldn't catch all the rain
That drained out of my head
When you said we were
Over and over I cried
Till I floated downstream
To a town they call
Misery, oh oh, Misery
Misery, oh oh, Misery
And one million teacups
I bet couldn't hold all the wet
That fell out of my eyes
When you fell out with me
Now I'm crawling the wallpaper
That's looking more like a road map
To Misery, oh oh, Misery
How can you smile and forecast
Weather's getting better

And you'll soon forget her
If you let the sunshine come through
How can you smile and forecast
Weather's getting better
If you never let a girl rain all over you
And just when I thought
That my vista was golden in hue
1000 umbrellas opened to spoil the view
One billion salt seas
Recalled from school atlas
Alas would be filled to the brim
Sunny Jim couldn't jump it
How can I be pleased
When I'm handed the keys
To a town they call
Misery, oh oh, Misery
So with a mop and a bucket
I'll just say forget her
And carry on sweeping up
Where I've been weeping
The Jesters will creep in
To strike down the newly crowned monarch
Of Misery, oh oh, Misery
How can you smile and forecast
Weather's getting better
And you'll soon forget her
If you let the sunshine come through
How can you smile and forecast
Weather's getting better
If you never let a girl rain all over you
Just when I thought that my skies were a June July blue
1000 umbrellas opened
2000 umbrellas opened
10,000 umbrellas opened to spoil the view

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

XTC were an influential rock band (starting out as a post-punk outfit but eventually developing into a sound that was a mix of new wave and alternative/college rock) which formed Swindon, England in 1972. For most of their career, the band consisted of Andy Partridge (vocals, guitar), Colin Moulding (vocals, bass) and Dave Gregory (guitar, keyboards). Gregory replaced founding keyboardist Barry Andrews in 1979 and left himself in 1999.
