Here Comes the Rain Lyrics
Drops of water
Flood cascading from the sky
And it streaks my windshield
Woah-oh, woah-oh, the thunder roars
I open up the door
[Verse 2]
My umbrella
Makes me look just like the Morton Girl
Splish, splish-splash
Woah-oh, woah-oh, taking a bath
Walking down the road
[Chorus]
Here comes the rain
Oh, it's gonna wash all my troubles away
Here comes the rain
Oh, it's gonna wash all my troubles away
[Verse 3]
I got dirty
Just another punk that bit the dust
In the mirror
I could not recognize myself
The person I'd become
But here comes the rain
Oh, it's gonna wash all my troubles away
Here comes the rain
Oh, it's gonna wash all my troubles away
[Bridge]
We're on the way to paradise
Did you hear the news?
The universe will give you more
Of what you pay attention to
[Chorus]
Oh, it's gonna wash all my troubles away
Here comes the rain
Oh, it's gonna wash all my troubles away
Wash all my troubles away
Oh, it's gonna wash all my troubles away
About
The 11th track on OK Human, “Here Comes The Rain”. The title is a nod to The Beatles “Here Comes The Sun” off the Abbey Road record. The Los Angeles Times wrote: “…a seeming account of self-encouragement that Cuomo wrote for his friend Sam Harris, the button-pushing author and podcast host, as Harris was getting beaten up online for some outrageous statement or another.”
Cuomo also said, “'I wanted to explain to Sam how to not get sucked into it.” The song’s original chorus, he claims: “Don’t go on Reddit.‘”

“I felt like I have more experience dealing with the internet and trolls because all that arose right when we were making our most controversial records, I wanted to explain to Sam (Harris) how to not get sucked into it.”
