Well the rain came down on Elgin Ave. And the faces on the bus look sad As the man with the umbrella hails a cab And the sky is looking mean and grey And tomato is the soup today As the homeless lay out plastic on the ground She takes this chance to start anew With a hotel sample free shampoo And her hair is old and baby blue Rain, rain, don't go away I'm glad you came and I hope you stay And you couldn't have come on a better day Now the rain floods my flowerbed And the garbage can with the missing lid They blame it on those no-good meddling kids She can't be more than seventeen And sleeping in a bank machine And beating up and old tambourine While the old man strums an old guitar A silverstone with a whammy bar As someone shouts insults from their car Songtexte Rain, rain, don't go away I'm glad you came and I hope you stay And you couldn't have come on a better day My kitchen window leads to the roof Where nothing's safe or waterproof And it feels like a giant pirate ship And the barber sweeps up all the hair And he falls asleep in his barber's chair And the smell of disinfectant fills the air The old man finds a cigarette By the pharmacy at Somerset And he's standing there all soaking wet Rain, rain, don't go away I'm glad you came and I hope you stay And you couldn't have come on a better I couldn't get any wetter You couldn't have come on a better day Aus Songtexte Mania
