It's Raining Somewhere

Man On The Internet


Here we are
We've come so far
All alone
You still want home

Well, I know that feel
But, let's be real
See what you have
Good food, good drinks
Good friends, bad laughs so

I know you're driven
But, look what you've been given
Is what you have to do
Really worth all this to you?

You're not alone
You've got this 'ol bag 'a bones
To help you through
Show you what to do

I'm rootin' for ya, kid
Always will and always did

Hey kid, sit down
Let me tell you a story

I sit at my post
Down in the snow
It's raining somewhere
I dunno

I look for humans
It's such a bore
But then one day
I see this door

So I go to this door
Practice knock knock jokes
Just some fun, nothing more, just jokes

Knock em' dead, knock em' out
Like my life's a joke
Then I hear her voice

Who's there?
I reply
Dishes
Dishes who?

Dishes a very, very bad knock knock joke
Then, she howls, best she's heard in years
I keep goin'
She keeps laughing at my jokes
Then I hear her voice

Knock Knock
Who's there?
Old lady
Old lady who?

I didn't know you could yodel
Telling jokes there for hours in the snow
Then I had to go

I came back, the next day
The day after that
It's a thing like a story for my bro
Tell bad jokes, through a door
Laugh your fears away
'Cause it's raining somewhere

Then one day, I told jokes
Couldn't hear laugh
I asked her what was wrong that day
I heard tears, weeping
Coming through the door
Then I heard her voice

If a human ever comes through the door
Would you promise me just one thing?
Watch over, protect the one
Who comes through the door
Could you do this for me?

I hate making promises
And I don't know her name
So I sat
And thought
It was raining somewhere
That's a laugh

But someone
Who could laugh at an awful joke
You just can't say no, can't laugh it off
Thanks to her, to promises
And awful jokes
Here you stand today

Lighten up, I'll be there
I will keep you safe
Look at you standing strong
Atta' (gender neutral)

Guess that's all
So take of yourself kiddo
Because someone cares
It's raining somewhere
