Lyrics

Chorus

Oh I’ve got a hole in my shoe

And the rain knows just what to do

Drips and dribbles make their debut

Cold little puddle in my left sock too

Post-Chorus

Splish splash, ooh

Guess I’m waterproof-adjacent

Oh oh, not quite waterproof

Verse 2

Woman at the bus stop gives me that look

She sees my limping with my toes all shook

Could’ve worn boots but I tried to be cute

Now I squish and I squeak with each commute

Pre-Chorus

Maybe someone upstairs thinks it’s fun

To rain on my parade just as I run

Chorus

Oh I’ve got a hole in my shoe

And the rain knows just what to do

Drips and dribbles make their debut

Cold little puddle in my left sock too

Post-Chorus

Splish splash, ooh

Guess I’m waterproof-adjacent

Oh oh, not quite waterproof

Bridge

I step in a puddle as wide as the street

Left foot’s a sponge and right still dry and neat

People hurry by umbrellas all in bloom

Tip my soggy sneakers like a blue cartoon

Verse 3

Rain taps a rhythm through canvasy seams

Counting out seconds between shivers and streams

Sloshing through minutes til my stop appears

Waterlogged wanderer conquers her fears

Outro

Maybe dry shoes are something to borrow

But today I’ll be soaked with a story tomorrow

Raindrops and laughter with every squish through

Wearing this puddle, my badge, my breakthrough
