I'm black
Like a shadow cast a soul searching for home
I'm red
Hot coal my trial by fire my new desire
I'm green
Yeah babe you know what I mean that shit costs money
Don't save it to the bank or take it to the grave
I think I just found the error of my ways
Don't ride the fairy tale
It's improvised fictitious scat
It tells me this, it tells me that
There's a peg in the ground where people stop
It casts a cold shadow across my soul
And shakes the death rattles down to my bones
Don't ride the fairy tale
When the genuine returns the bribe
Don't break the stick that pokes the fire
