about

As used in the television series Macintyre's Underworld.

lyrics

spits of rain
she wont change, she wont change
you can't change the weather
or the blood in your veins
she's going round to an old friend
across town to pick up
and he'll give her something
that I never could

our troubles, darling
they're not worth the pain
we ain't worth to the wide world
the falling of two spits of rain

bright shards of sunlight
break through from above
whatever I give her
it's never enough
it's sunlight puts the shadows
on her arms again
it's sunlight gives us shadows
the rest of the sky spits rain

now we're together I don't feel a thing
except for sunlight in my veins
and love for you, my dear
now we're together I don't feel a thing
except for sunlight in my veins, love

about

Robin Elliott London, UK

Extraordinary songwriter and performer.

Funnier and more self-deprecating than this makes me sound.

Forthcoming album There is a Land is awash with novel narrative strategies and novelty Brexit tunes.
