Sorry about the weather
You say it's raining there all the time
Reading it in your letter
I say give it a little while
 
Sorry about the money
You say you barely are getting by
Nothing is getting better
You know you're luckly to be alive
 
Sorry about the children
Living in third world countries man
Supposedly the government's
Out doing what they can

Sorry about the little wars
That don't ever seem to end
Killing off young american boys
Just as fast as we can send them over

and you see exactly where you stand
must be you like the answers in your hand

I'm sorry for singing
That nothing is bringing us together
I'm sorry for dreaming
But mostly i'm sorry for you
And i'm sorry about the weather
Sorry about the weather

Sorry about the

 helpless ones
Who just won't help themselvesThe world is full of dreamers
Putting their dreams up on the shelves

Sorry about the racist fools
That don't believe in love
I'm sorry about the heroes
Using guns instead of love

Sorry about pollution
Filling up your crazy little world
Haven't got a solution right now
But i'll give it a whirl

You know all you need is a little time
To see exactly where you stand
I'm sorry to say
I think these problems are all way out of hand

I'm sorry for singing
That nothing is bringing us together
I'm sorry for dreaming
But mostly i'm sorry for you
And i'm sorry about the weather

and you see exactly where you stand
do you have the answers in your hand

Sorry about the weather
You say it's raining there all the time

Reading it in your letter
Give it a little while now
