Danny Michel feat. The Garifuna Collective

lyrics

I was there at the station when the colours combined
I’ve been trying to change them all with my mind
I’m out of fire and the cupboards are bare
My love left and I got nothing to share
So I put my last dollar on the railroad track
But no train came so I took it back
I put it in the gumball crackerjack prize
I won a mood ring and it was just my size
It said, what colour are you? What colour are you?

Some have it all, still it ain’t enough
I was aching for love, even the slightest touch
A young woman walked into that lonesome place
She said I know that look I’ve seen your face
I’ve been there before, it’s a terrible place
Now I’m bound for glory, I’m overdue
I’m sick of seeing red and feeling blue
What colour are you? What colour are you?

I’ve been trying to keep you off my mind
I’m trying to keep these colours all in line
I’m a hostage in a forgotten war, tied to a rock on the ocean floor
To be honest with you, I forget what I was fighting for
People turn green with envy, black with hate
Why can’t we all just communicate?
What colour are you? What colour are you?

And my heart keeps beating like an old bass drum
There’s plenty more of that, where that came from
And I'll still lay it on the line if the right time comes
And even if I’m scared to death, white with fear
I’ve been black and blue, I’ve even disappeared
What colour are you? What colour are you?

I was there at the station when the colours aligned
And in that lonesome place I felt peace in my mind
I’m on a golden wave length sunset hue,
I’m sick of seeing red and feeling blue

What colour are you? What color are you?

All you beautiful people

What colour are you? What color are you?

Uh, what colour are you? Tell me people

Uh, what colour are you? All you beautiful people
