How many days will the wet weather last?
  I want know will the clouds when they roll back
Reveal a man in an old mac
Living on a park bench
Sitting on his own

|  | % |  | % |

  Cut to the rain as it runs down the glass
  Eventually through the lightning and thunder
We see a man going under
This is how it happens
This is what he said

I don't need love
Though temptation is sweet
Give me your hand
'Til I'm back on my feet
You're always telling me 
About my misery
I've seen things you'll never see

Don't pity me

  Focus in on the breath of a man
  Who takes a brown paper bag from his knapsack
Between his whispers and wise cracks
He's looking for permission
Screaming at the sky

            (6)
I don't need love
                    (6)
Though temptation is sweet
Give me your hand
'Til I'm back on my feet
You're always telling me 
About my misery
I've seen things you'll never see

Don't pity me

  I'll be right again
  Be upright without you
  I'll stand up again
  Kick up a fuss again too

Cut back again to a girl walking by
  Until the feet that are all shoes and no socks
Climb an invisible soap box
Laughing at the traffic
Shouting at the world

I don't need love
Though temptation is sweet
Give me your hand
'Til I'm back on my feet
You're always telling me 
About my misery
I've seen things you'll never see

Don't pity me

  I'll stand up again
Kick up a fuss again too
  I'll be right again
Be upright without you

   (We see a life through the eyes of a man
   As he live and he dies
   By a simple tattoo)

  I'll be back again
  When I land on my feet
  I'll stand up again
  Kick up a fuss again, wouldn't you

   (Well there you go, though we tried hard to know him
   It's there on his face
   He's a case where there's clearly no hope)

  Give me your hand again
  'Til I land again

  (His face starts to fade
   As we pull down the shade
   And the picture we made
   Is in glorious cinemascope)

  I'll be back ...
  I'll be back 

(repeat and FADE)
