Mistake by Middle Kids

Oh, darling
Pick you up just to let you drop
We got started, I was guarded
I almost forgot about you
It was charming
The way we danced around the truth
You were smiling, always hiding
And then I feel we're somehow quickly, slowing

Thought I was healthy but I'm choking
It must be catching up my smoking
I wish that I never played

You're standing out in the rain, tonight
Like you got something to say, to God
And you got a debt to pay back
For something you did way back

You're standing out in the rain, tonight
Like you got something to say, to God
And you got a debt to pay back
For something you did way back
You wanna make it okay

What's the problem?
Spilling up some of my guts
One day you're fine, next you're crying
Suddenly your engine just stops going

Thought you were healthy but you're choking
It must be catching up your smoking
I wish that you never played

You're standing out in the rain, tonight
I give us something to say, to God
And you got a debt to pay back
For something you did way back

You're standing out in the rain, tonight
I give us something to say, to God
And you got a debt to pay back
For something you did way back
You wanna make it okay

You're standing out in the rain, tonight
I give us something to say, to God
And he's got a debt to pay back
For something he did way back

You're standing out in the rain, tonight
I give us something to say, to God
And you got a debt to pay back
For something you did way back
You wanna make it okay

I had a thought while watching this video. Thank god MTV is dead and gone. Could you imagine a whole channel of music videos like this one ?? That would make me want to die. Although MTV played rad music videos so nevermind. I miss it. But I hope I never have to watch this video again. That lady has lame pants. And that dumber is ugly and boring. Snooze

Agreed - this video lacks imagination

But we all know that one friend whose always spilling something

Now when it comes to being in the rain...

I've seen many concerts in the rain and quite a few at Red Rocks

I remember the Dave Mathews Band concert in the rain, and trust me, it didn't help matters at all

Sometimes it rains at a show and it's a welcomed event, other times it just makes things worse

Sinead O'conner was in the rain and I only went to that show because of Mangle, uh that one was awful

I love the smell of rain, and summer rain can be rather nice

But rain in Wyoming was usually unpleasant because it changed into hail, halfway through the storm

The puddles are fun, but I feel bad for all the drowning worms

I would always save as many worms as I could when I was a kid, they didn't deserve to go out like that

My Uncle Jeff's land in Kauai just recently got 2 feet of rain in 24 hours, so it's a bit of a disaster right now

He was trapped on his porch one day because a Buffalo was on his front lawn just staring at him

A herd of them live on the land and had broken free and were all around the town

The cowboys were chasing them and tranquilizing the ones that wouldn't go back peacefully

In conclusion - Rain has it's pro's and con's & we'll miss the days when MTV was rad

Summer rain is probably the best thing in the world. I don’t think there is anything that makes me happier. Kate Mangle’s dad had the wrong name for a dentist. Dave Matthew’s band represents the 90’s. I always wanted to save the worms but was too afraid to touch them so you are a better person than me. Your uncle needs to get a fence. I wonder what that buffalo was thinking. Just staring at him for two days.
