We turn red

We got large and we got small
We got a swimming pool and a cannon ball
We turn red and we turn green
It’s the craziest thing I’ve ever seen

[Verse 1]
Lost my mind ’cause I’m on the plastic
Who knew it’s so damn drastic
Show me what it is you believe in
Slowly she sinks all her teeth in
Do you want to go fishing in New Orleans?
Do you want to get up early in the morning?
Take me to the river where we do the little storming
Hallelujah, I feel it warming

[Pre-Chorus]
Sitting here I count the moons
The orders we obeyed
Every night ‘fore we go to bed
I watch while the others pray

[Chorus]
Send it off through Delaware just
Make it fair for the legionnaires
Paint a simple portrait of my kind
Permission to the heartless bombs
Gold Plated Hate and the waitress moms
Serving up the stories of my mind

[Verse 2]
Mexico, you are my neighbor
Home of the let’s be braver
Give me all your sick and your tired
Races that we admire
Do you want to go dancing in Chicago?
Trinidad’s got it bad for Tobago
Take me to the lake where we do the Avocado
Hallelujah, a desperado

[Pre-Chorus:]
Sitting here I count the moons
The orders we obeyed
Every night ‘fore we go to bed
I watch while the others pray

[Chorus:]
Send it off through Delaware just
Make it fair for the legionnaires
Paint a simple portrait of my kind
Permission to the heartless bombs
Gold Plated Hate and the waitress moms
Serving up the stories of my mind

[Bridge]
Coming down from the deserts where you
Caught a glimpse of the billionaire
Tell me I’m the right one for the ride
Paper signs out on the lawns
Gold minds and the priceless pawns
Does your canyon really open wide?

[Outro]
We got large and we got small
We got a swimming pool and a cannon ball
We turn red and we turn green
It’s the craziest thing I’ve ever seen

Dark Necessities

[Intro: Instrumental]

[Verse 1]
Comin’ on to the light of day
We’ve got many moons
That are deep at play
So I keep an eye on the shadow’s smile
To see what it has to say
You and I both know
Everything must go away
Ah, what do you say?
Spinning out, head is on my heart
It’s like a bit of light
And a touch of dark
You got a sneak attack from the zodiac
But I see your eyes spark
Keep the breeze and go
Blow by blow and go away
Oh what do you say girl?

[Chorus]
Yeah, you don’t know my mind
You don’t know my kind
Dark necessities are part of my design
Tell the world
That I’m falling from the sky
Dark necessities are part of my design

[Verse 2]
Stumble down to the parking lot
You got no time for the afterthought
You’re like ice cream for an astronaut
Well that’s me looking for we
Turn the corner and…
Find a world at your command
Layin’ the hand, girl

[Chorus]
You don’t know my mind
You don’t know my kind
Dark necessities are part of my design
Tell the world
That I’m falling from the sky
Dark necessities are part of my design

[Interlude]
Do you want this love of mine?
The darkness helps to sort the shine
Do you want it, do you want it now?
Do you want it overtime?
The darkness helps to sort the shine
Do you want it, do you want it now?

[Verse 3]
Make it work like a paperback
With the track record of a maniac
So I’m moving in and we unpack
It’s the same as yesterday
Any way we roll
Everything must go away
Ah, what do you say girl?

[Chorus]
You don’t know my mind
You don’t know my kind
Dark necessities are part of my design
Tell the world
That I’m falling from the sky
Dark necessities are part of my design

[Outro: Guitar Solo]
