(originally by Randy Newman)




Broken windows and empty hallways

A pale dead moon in the sky streaked with gray

Human kindness is overflowing

And I think it's going to rain today



Scarecrows dressed in the latest styles

With frozen smiles to chase love away

Human kindness is overflowing

And I think it's going to rain today



Lonely, lonely

Tin can at my feet

Think I'll kick it down the street

That's the way to treat a friend



Bright before me the signs implore me

Help the needy and show them the way

Human kindness is overflowing

And I think it's going to rain today
