"It Never Rains in California" is a song from the 70's about a guy who comes out west to find success but is left broke and in despair. One lyric line is "it never rains in California, but girl let me warn you, it pours, man it pours". Now, if you listen to the story line, I think you'll conclude that the last word of that lyric line should very well have been "poors". That's actually what I thought it was, a homonym that conveyed his destitute situation. However, when I checked the lyrics, it uses the word "pours". Doesn't make sense to me; "doesn't rain, but it pours"? Am I missing something? Anyone else feel the same way?
