Raincoat Song Lyrics

Decemberists Raincoat Song

Caroline, you're angry 'cause you sleep like a spinster and you're twenty-eight. You've been thinking late You couldn't catch a cold. Bend your head double in the goosedown, piling all the pillows high. Heave your fiercest sigh and see if that'll work.

And the raincoat that you wore when it rained today And the raincoat that you wore when it rained today, I think it only made it rain more. I think it only made it rain the more.

And if the water's all wickin' up your pantleg, better wear your britches tight. I should teach you right to be so down at heel. Goin' off half-cocked, night-shot full of arrows from the cherubim. Oh, the nerve of them-- to not draw their bows.

And the raincoat that you wore when it rained today And the raincoat that you wore when it rained today, I think it only made it rain more. I think it only made it rain the more...
