Will it wash away the lonely tears,
With their brand new time transporter,
They'll think maybe I fought to get away,
But with all their great inventions,
And all their good intentions here I stay,
Down on the corner where the sun had shone,
The people gathered 'round,
Then scattered as the raindrops hit the ground,
Chorus
