Bloody dots in the sky
Blot it out from the sky
I have to turn my head and tell my dog to go.
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes.
I say a riddle
I see a red door
I see a Renoir and I want to paint it black.
I see a red door and I want to paint it black.
I see a dead dog and all his mates are mad.
I see a red door and I want it painted black.
I see a line of cards
I see a line of cars
I see a microcosm there all painted black
I see a line of cars, they're all painted black
I see a radio and I want it painted black.
I see a red door and I want it painted black.
I see a rag doll and I want to paint it black.
I see a red door and I want it painted black.
I see a rainbow and I want it painted black.
I see a red door and I want it painted black.
I see a rectal and I want it painted black.
I see a red door and I want it painted black.
I see a red Joanne and I want her painted black
I see a red door and I want it painted black
I see a red Joanne,
I want her painted black
I see a red door,
I want to paint it black
I see a red door and I want a pain in the back.
I see a red door and I want it painted black.
I see a reptile and I want it painted black.
or
I see a bobtail and I want it painted black.
I see a red door and I want it painted black.
I see a rickshaw and I want to paint it black.
I see a red door and I want to paint it black.
I see a riddle and I want it painted black.
I see a red door and I want it painted black.
I see a rifle
I see a red door
I see a ritual and I want it painted black.
I see a red door and I want it painted black.
I see a vector and I want to paint it black
I see a red door and I want it painted black.
I see a window and I want it painted black.
I see a red door and I want it painted black.
I see a window and I want to paint it black
I see a red door and I want to paint it black
I see a wrinkle
I see a red door
I see her in your hand
I want it painted black.
I see a red door and
I want to paint it black.
I see my rectum and I want to paint it black
I see a red door and I want to paint it black
I see my rectum. I must have it painted black.
I see my red door. I must have it painted black.
I see some Red Bull
I see a red door
I see the girl go by dressed in his summer clothes.
I see the girls go by dressed in their summer clothes.
I see the girls go by dressed in their underclothes.
I see the girls go by dressed in their summer clothes.
I see the girls whoop by dressed in their summer crows
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I see your rectum and I want it painted black
I see a red door and I want it painted black
I wanna see a baby, baby....painted black!
I wanna see it painted, painted....painted black!
I wanna see it painted, painted black
Black as night, black as old.
or
I wanna see it painted, painted black
Black as night, black as cold.
I wanna see it painted, painted black
Black as night, black as coal.
If I look hard enough into the second song
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
Like a new Old Navy
Like a newborn baby
Like an a-bomb baby
it just happens every day
Like a new born baby
it just happens every day
Maybe Denver might fade away while knights have to face the fax.
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts.
No colors anymore, I want them to turn bad
No colors anymore, I want them to turn black
No more can my grief sink or turn a deeper blue
or
No more can my green seagull turn a deeper blue
or
No more can my green seagull turn a deeper blue
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
No more can my grief sink or turn a deeper blue.
No more can my green sea go turn a deeper blue.
No more will migraine seagull
turn a deeper blue
No more will my green sea go
Turn a deeper blue.
No more will migraine seagull
turn a deeper blue
No more will my green sea go
Turn a deeper blue.
No more will migrancy go turn a deeper blue.
No more will me green sea go turn a deeper blue.
No more will my ego turn a deeper fool.
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue.
No more will my green sea boat turn a deeper blue.
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue.
No more will my green seagull turn a deeper blue.
No more will me green sea go turn a deeper blue.
No more will my green seagull turn a deeper blue
I could not force-feed this thing happily to you.
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not foresee this thing happening to you.
No more will my green seagull turn a deeper blue
No more can my grief sink or turn a deeper blue
No more will my green seagull
Turn a deeper blue.
No more will my green sea go
Turn a deeper blue.
No more will my green sister turn a deeper blue
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
No more will my green sister turn a deeper blue
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
No more will my green sister turn a pailer of blue,
I can not foresight this thing happening to you
No more will my green sea turn a deeper blue,
I can not foresee this thing happening to you
No more will my green suit go turn a deeper blue.
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue.
No party, hiding nothing to the setting sun
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
I first heard this song when it came out. I found out what this lyric really is right before I submitted it!
The moral my green Sego turn a deeper blue.
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
The moral my green seagull turn a deeper blue
No more can my grief sink or turn a deeper blue
With flowers and my love boat never to come back
With flowers and my love both never to come back
With flowers and my love for never to come back
With flowers and my love both never to come back
No more will my green seagull turn a deeper blue
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
Don't cover anymore
No colors anymore
I wanna see a face painted black
I wanna see it painted, painted black
I want them to turn brown
I want them to turn black
Like a nude boy, baby
Like a newborn baby
No more will my green Sebring turn a deeper blue
No more will my green seagull turn a deeper blue
As in the Chrysler Sebring.
No more will my green seagull turn a deeper blue
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
Until my darkest glows
Until my darkness goes
