Thunder and Lightning - Gilbert O'Sullivan

There’s people who believe

That what we’re to receive

Is meant to happen anyway

Then there’re those who’ll admit

That they’re literally scared stiff of it

No matter what you say

Then there are those who’ll astound

By simply being around to play

Thunder and lightning ain’t worth fighting

So lock yourself away or else face it all tonight

I was supposed to meet her at eight

Now I find it’s gone eight

And I haven’t done a thing

There’s people all around me

People who have found me

Not very funny when I sing

A little song about the bad things

The weather can do

Thunder and lightning ain’t worth fighting

So lock yourself away or else face it all tonight

People running everywhere

There’s not a soul who’ll stay out there

And I don’t think there will be tonight

But we’ve got to accept what’s right

Thunder and lightning

I’m trying hard to remember

Was it last November

When I got caught under a tree

I stood there like a fool

Without so much as a stool

That I could sit upon to comfort me

I shudder at the thought

Howerer I got out safely

Thunder and lightning …
