[Verse 1] I dropped a coin Down the sink again Tiny silver flash Gone where I can’t bend Cold water ran Like it knew my name I reached for luck And it slipped away [Pre-Chorus] But it rang below In the dark, in the pipe Like a secret dare Saying wait for the light [Chorus] Coin in the drain Coin in the drain Still got a shine Under all that rain Coin in the drain Coin in the drain You don’t go clean You just go where you can [Verse 2] I scrubbed that day Till my hands turned white Mop bucket low And a busted ceiling light A little lost thing With a little hard edge Rolling through the grit Like a promise left [Pre-Chorus] And I heard it bounce Through the bones of the house Like a small mean song I could sing right out loud [Chorus] Coin in the drain Coin in the drain Still got a shine Under all that rain Coin in the drain Coin in the drain You don’t go clean You just go where you can [Bridge] Maybe that’s me Maybe that’s you Half of us fall Then we turn the blue Not much to hold Just a stubborn gleam Still on the move Still in the seam [Final Chorus] Coin in the drain Coin in the drain Still got a shine Under all that rain Coin in the drain Coin in the drain You don’t go clean You just go where you can Coin in the drain Coin in the drain Say it again Till it sounds like a plan
