Red Red Red lyrics

[Verse 1]

I don't understand about complementary colors

And what they say

Side by side they both get bright

Together, they both get gray

[Chorus 1]

But he's been pretty much yellow

And I've been kind of blue

But all I can see is

Red, red, red, red, red

Now, what am I gonna do?

[Verse 2]

I don't understand about diamonds

And why men buy them

What's so impressive about a diamond

Except the mining?

[Chorus 2]

But it's dangerous work

Trying to get to you, too

And I think if I didn't have to kill

Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill myself doing it

Maybe I wouldn't think so much of you

[Bridge]

I've been watching all the time

And I still can't find the tack

But I wanna know is, is it okay?

Is it just fine?

Or is it my fault?

Is it my lack?

[Verse 3]

I don't understand about

The weather outside

Or the harmony in a tune

Or why somebody lied

[Chorus 3]

But there's solace a bit in submitting

To the fitfully, cryptically true

What's happened, has happened

What's coming is already on its way

With a role for me to play

[Outro]

And I don't understand

I never understand

But I'll try to understand

There's nothing else I can do
