[Scatting by Scatman John]

The fire of desire's causing too much pain
There isn't much to lose or to gain standing in the rain
It's driving me insane
As far as I can see the dream has been forsaken
We need to reawaken an ah stop standing in the rain...
Yeah... standing in the rain
Stop standing in the rain

[Scatting by Scatman John]

Somebody stop the rain
Stop the rain stop the rain stop the rain
(Standing in the rain)
Somebody stop the rain
Stop the rain stop the rain

Somebody stop the rain
Stop the rain stop the rain
I'm dripping and I'm soaking wet

[Scatting by Scatman John]

A silent kind of thunder flashing through my soul,
My mind's feelin hot but I'm cold.
Standing in the rain,
Standing in the rain.
The words of the sages, written on the pages,
Impossible for me to see.
I'm standing in the rain.
Driving me insane.
Keeps raining, yeah.

The moral of the story you can take it from me
Take a look and you'll see that we're all standing in the
