Red Lyrics

Red lyrics

Paint on your nail smells like kerosene

Before these blisters we were squeaky clean

We were Mr. and Mrs. Butter and Cream

Sweet things turn sour honey, love's never clean



And I see red, red, red

Don't you hear what I said?

And it's thicker than the water

It'll rush into your head



And I see red, red, red

Don't you hear what I said?

They're pulling on my strings

Baby, shaking up the bed



Creeps in the attic, putting salt on our tails

Big bucks and high heels drove us both off the rails

We were sun gods in Athens but uncommonly pale

Tans don't last long, baby, white bread gets stale



And I see red, red, red

Don't you hear what I said?

And it's thicker than the water

It'll rush into your head



And I see red, red, red

Don't you hear what I said?

They're pulling on my strings

Baby, shaking up the bed



And I"m near you but I can't hear you but

I'm out here guessing

You're guessing too

You're guessing too



And I see red, red, red

Don't you hear what I said?

And it's thicker than the water

It'll rush into your head



And I see red, red, red

Don't you hear what I said?

They're pulling on my strings

Baby, shaking up the bed
