rain ride rain ride
i'm already wet
why try to stay dry?
too late to find cover
in one direction or another
it's a rain ride rain ride
theremin brakes
and aquaplane snakes
i'm splashed by a car
and my own handlebars!
in a rain ride rain ride
find waterproof lies
and win a waterlogged prize!
even resistant's a reach
and my gloves start to squeak
it's a rain ride rain ride
puddle to sky
there's no asking why
just joy when the water
on my skin does saunter
in a rain ride rain ride
my source is forgot
and of destination i'm shot
my makeup is slipping
on the road i'm zipping
and a rain ride is
where there is only now
only dripping on down
from one to the next
'neath sky's great reflex -
and on ground's hard retort
there, my own gleeful sport
