I'm walking down the street in the rain, my umbrella high above my head
High above my head
Puddles along the wet sidewalks and gutters, (pitter patter)
Rain lightly falling from the sky (pitter patter)
Rain lightly falling from the sky
Red and green and free design
Umbrellas are in bloom, nourished by the rain
I'm walking down the street in the rain, my umbrella high above my head
High above my head
Though the clouds, the blackness and rain
I see the lightning strike as though it were pain
Rain falling hard on a sea of umbrellas
A colorful bottomless ocean
Then the wind it blows and it blows
I see the umbrellas bend, they creak and they groan
Gusting down alleys and through streets of cars
Causing unbottled unspent commotion
I spy a patch of blue through a cloud
A patch of blue through a shroud
Hopefully umbrellas hide and shrink and close
As the noonday sun peeks through the clouds
