I learnd this one when I was a little kid. I guess it's a street song parody of "It Aint Gonna Rain No more. Oddly enough, us street urchins sang it, "Isn't gonna rain Anymore Anymore. GRAMATICALLY CORRECT.

I woke up in the mornin' and I looked upon the wall,
The bedbugs and the roaches were havin' a game of ball.
The score was six to nothin', the roaches were ahead
A bedbug hit a homer and knocked me out of bed.

OOOOOHHHHHHHHH!! at five o'clock in the mornin', the jailer comes around
With a piece of bread and butter that weighed a half a pound
The Butter was all rancid and the bread it was all stale

(here it comes)

A cat was by the sewer and over there he died
And in the mornin' papers, they called it "Sewer cide"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH!!

Isn't gonna rain anymore anymore, isn't gonna rain anymore,
So how in the heck can I wash my neck if it isn't gonna rain anymore.

Incidentally, Wally Whyton and I are responsible for the cleaned up version of "The British Workers Grave" that Peter Sellers recorded as "Grandpa's Grave" (on the other side of "Goodness Gracious Me", Peter Sellers and Sofia Loren) I made enough money on that one to buy a Rolls Royce. Allright, it was made in 1932 and had half a million miles on the odometer. But,The damned thing ran like a new car. It could have been the last Rolls Royce Logo in Red. My chassis number was GZU 15 and the double "R" was in red, The guy who sold it to me, Frank Jordan, had another . the Chassis number was GZU-18, the RR was in black. The morning after Frank sold me the car, he asked, "Jody, are the peasants bowing and pulling at their forelocks as you drive by"? "No" says I. to which frank (raising his voice and tongue in cheek) replied, "Well, get out and kick them, they should, you know"!!! I paid 180 quid for the car (&540 at the time) I drove it around England for three years and the USAF paid to have it shipped to my new station in Sacramento, Calif, where I drove it around for another 4 years before I sold it. (I got a lot more than 180.quid in royalties, you get the same author's royalty regardless of which side of the record your song is on) I had no Idea that I had authored a moneymaker until at EMI's annual Christmas party, Peter Sellers came over and said, "well, Jody, looks like we've got a hit record". What do you mean "We"?, I asked, are you pregnant? No, he said, "Grandpa's Grave" is on the other side of "Goodness Gracious Me". "Hot dog" I mumbled to myself". Next day, I went to the publisher and asked for an advance. How much do you want? he asked. Right there I knew we did, indeed have a hit.

I like the original Shitty version better, although we did write a dandy "Middle 8" which is completely lacking in the original.

Love and kisses
