I'd Complain


I'd complain but there's nothin' like the rain Pourin' right down my face Each drop in its place It's the same routine It's time for a new scene I'd complain But I gotta stay sane I'd be sane But I'd be plain I'd change But I wouldn't be the same There's nothin like the same ol' day Stuck on replay I'd complain But I like the rain Pourin' right down on my face Each drop in its place It's a routine With the same ol' scene I'd complain But this is what keeps me sane I'd change But I'm stained If I changed It wouldn't be the same It would all just be wrong Nothing would get along It wouldn't be the same I love my life Even if it's not right But I'll keep up with its fight I wont give up I'll keep my fist up I'll wear a smile Even if it's not the style I'd complain But it just wouldn't be the same If there's no rain Pourin' on my face Each drop in its place I love my life Even if it's not even Even if it's not so hot I'll stay and fight With my fist up I won't give up I'd complain But it just wouldn't be the same
