[JUNIOR and THE SUBTLE DISTINCTIONS]
Red
Red is the color
[JUNIOR]
Every time I wake up and I'm holding you
Every time that you make me feel the way you do
[JUNIOR and THE SUBTLE DISTINCTIONS]
But green
Green is for envy
[JUNIOR]
Every time that I see you with another guy
Every time that I catch you in another lie
[THE SUBTLE DISTINCTIONS]
Why can't we stay here
Just spend the night together
I tell you baby
Let's spend the night together
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh...
Ooh ooh ooh...
[JUNIOR and THE SUBTLE DISTINCTIONS]
Black
Black is the color
[JUNIOR]
Of a man walking nowhere on a lonely night
Of my son trying to do things right and
White
White is the color
Of a world that seems to have no place for me
Of a world with no democracy
[THE SUBTLE DISTINCTIONS]
Why can't I stay here
What is the game I'm playing
There's no direction
To this the game I'm playing
[JUNIOR and THE SUBTLE DISTINCTIONS]
I hear people say
[JUNIOR]
That everything will
[JUNIOR and THE SUBTLE DISTINCTIONS]
Be OK
[JUNIOR]
But people there is
[JUNIOR and THE SUBTLE DISTINCTIONS]
Just no way
No, no, no, no, no way
[JUNIOR]
That's why I'm bothered blue
That's why I'm bothered blue
That's why I'm bothered blue[THE SUBTLE DISTINCTIONS]
Blue, blue, blue
Blue, blue, blue
Blue, blue, blue
[JUNIOR]
I see a man
Walking down the street
With nowhere to go
And nothing to eat
I see a woman
Giving her life away for no reason
And you tell me
For everything there is a season
[JUNIOR]
So I'm bothered blue
That's why I'm bothered blue
Bothered blue[THE SUBTLE DISTINCTIONS]
Blue, blue, blue
Blue, blue, blue
