When you were young
So much younger girl
You were the one
You were the wondergirl
Now the coke lines show on you face
And the whole world can see your disgrace
Don't you think it's time
To wash away your crime?
Men have been hung for lesser crimes than ours
Men forced to steal
Forced behind steel bars
Now there is no use trying to lie
The whole world will watch you trying to hide
Don't you think it's time
To wash away your crime?
Let the RAIN come down
And wash away your needs
May the water fall from the sky over me
Let the RAIN come down
And wash it all out to see
Maybe then you'll know just how I feel
You made a mistake
When you took me for a fool
The major complaint was the absence of majority rule
Now the latest discovery
Is the girl that we are dying to please
Don't you think it's time
To wash away your crime?
Let the RAIN come down
And wash away your needs
May the water fall from the sky over me
Let the RAIN come down
And wash it all out to see
Maybe then you'll know just how I feel
