Who lies on sheets of ice, who pays for paradise
after the rain?
who suffers fools and freaks, who hangs in guilty cliques
after the rain?

Somebody save me, the water's rising
sweet Jesus take the blame
who knows whose star is falling
after the rain, after the rain

Who took the gold from their teeth, who takes the ancient masterpiece
after the rain?
who throws the winning dice, who lies beneath the ice
after the rain?
