Fish - What Colour is God?
I was thinking about thinking about thinking about thinking I was
thinking.
Contemplating situations and the visions blew my mind.
In the gutter I was crawling as the shells just kept on falling
all around me.
(Chorus): What colour is God? Why can't you tell me, can't you
tell me?
What colour is God? Why can't you tell me, can't you tell me?
What colour is God? Why can't you tell me, can't you tell me?
As the library was burning and the pages kept on turning back in
history.
As the doorways they were full of refugees and lonely people
staring at me, they were asking of me.
What colour is God?
What colour is God?
What colour is God?
No matter what I say or do, it never looks like making any
difference.
Don't keep on looking down at me as if I don't exist as if I'm
not here
Don't focus all your anger and resentment that you have,
Don't blame it on me, don't blame it on me.
(Chorus):
Black brother in an open sports car pulled over by suspicious
officer,
Uniform man got a nervous partner,
Weapon was pulled from a shoulder holster.
White jogger see the roadside gangsta,
Heart beat just a little bit faster,
Rasta man speaking in the island patois,
Gonna give you the righteous answer.
Why can't you tell me, can't you tell me?
What colour is God?
(Chorus):
No matter what I say or do it never looks like making any
difference
Don't focus all your anger and resentment that you have
Don't blame it on me, don't blame it on me
(Chorus):
Please, please, please tell me.
Please, please, please tell me.
