Rainbow, rainbow, doing what you know
None of us can tell you what to do or when to show
Sunset, sunset, wipes the rainbow clean
And makes the loudest noise I've ever seen
You can turn me into that
Teacher, teacher, I'm old enough to learn
You told me that the rainbow never speaks before its turn
Stranger, stranger, tell me what you see
When I look in the mirror I see myself so differently
You can turn me into that
You return me to another time
When I was a crewman on a Syrian line
Once in a while your laugh would reach me across a thousand ocean miles
