I got wet. Then I got more wet. Then I lost my keys. And my shoes were filled with rain, chattering teeth, soaked to my thighs through to my skin shrivelled up feet, trench foot set in but then I think about real trench foot and silently apologise to the poor sods who died with wet feet I cried when I peeled off my clothes I felt sorry for myself But the little un had made me a hot drink So I thought myself lucky I am not native to wet and cold The sun is needed for us growin' old

When you've been rained on so much it feels like emotional damage!
