Why Is Your Raincoat Always Crying?

why is your raincoat always crying
 why does the hat on your head hang over your eyes
 your white shirt is buttoned way up to the top
 suspicious that zippers don't know when to stop
 and they're certain that jacket is lying
 why is your raincoat always crying
 why is your nightgown so sad and sleepy
 what is the secret your makeup refuses to tell
 bright colours grow weary from years of neglect
 brown scarf curls tight around your pretty neck
 and just what is that sweater implying
 why is your raincoat always crying
 why does that old robe act like it's dying
 why does it cling to your side hanging on for dear life
 as you take off that dress and you put on the next one
 each hopeful outfit will beg the same question
 if going outside is really worth trying
 then why is your raincoat always crying
