The theatre is letting out From the roof the raindrops fall Like a river they should flow But what does a raindrop know? Admission is a penny now The theatre is burning down All the faces in a crowd Like the raindrops in a cloud Like the river they should flow But what does a raindrop know? In the backroom, fires rage All the masks lost in a haze How can we put on our play? But what does a raindrop know? Raindrops kill, raindrops die They've lost their freedom from the sky They kill for things they must not show Die in rivers they will never know Is it more important to come into or go? But what does a raindrop know? What does a raindrop know?
