Lyrics
Chartreuse
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We painted our faces
We were at resting place in from the light
I must admit on that resting site
We looked alright
But now it's just traces
As we fade in black and white
We put make up on with no light
We're too uptight
Color me this way
Color me that way
Color me inside out
Color me upside down
To show my true colors
I must first be exposed to the light
I transverse in secondly fight
With all my might
I've blown my cover
In plain view I'm as plain as you
But you can't deny my hues
Red blue chartruese
Color me this way
Color me that way
Color me inside out
Color me upside down
Color me this way
Color me that way
Color me inside out
Color me upside down
