I was flicking through the channels on the T V
On a Sunday in Milwaukee in the rain
Trying to piece together conver sations
Trying to find out where to lay the blame
But w hen it comes right down to it
there's no use t rying to pretend
For w hen it gets right down to it
there's no one here that's left to blame
Blame it on m e you can blame it on m e
We're just sugar mice in the rain
I heard Sinatra calling me through the floorboards
Where you pay a quarter for a partnership in rhy me
To the jukebox crying in the co rner
While the waitress is counting out the time
For w hen it comes right down to it
there's no use trying to pretend
For w hen it gets right down to it
there's no one really left to blame
Blame it on m e you can blame it on m e
We're just sugar mice in the rain
(x8)
'Cause I k now what I feel know what I want
I know what I am Daddy took a ra incheck
'Cause I k now what I want know what I feel
I know what I need Daddy took a ra incheck
your daddy took a raincheck
Ain't no one in here that's left to blame but me
Blame it on m e blame it on me
Well the t oughest thing that I ever did
was talk to the kids on the phone
When I h eard them asking questions
I knew that you were all alone
Can't you understand that the government left me out of work
I just c ouldn't stand the looks on their faces
sayi ng "What a jerk"
So i f you want my address it's number o ne at the end of the bar
Where I s it with the broken angels
clutching at straws and nursing our scars
Blame it on m e blame it on m e
Sugar mice in the rain
your daddy took a raincheck
your daddy took a raincheck
