Colourful |
The son of a teacher didn’t learn a lot |
Turning time with the hopeless in a vacant plot |
Soaking up the streets in a colourful place |
He lives in the spirit behind his face |
People they laugh and pull his chain |
While the government perpetuates the peoples pain |
Jobs are scarce and life ain’t cheap and thus the young brother couldn’t get no |
sleep |
Cause he knows |
It’s there |
But the fool won’t scare |
The ghost in his heart won’t go away |
The ghost in the heart won’t go away |
So he feeds it with love till the spirits say |
That the ghost must go away |
His left sober and undone |
And the joy he once found don’t make no fun |
In moments where he thinks, mother prayed |
And father said forget what you have learnt |
The street corner light, it offers hope |
That he stuffs in a pipe and gladly smokes |
And while he’s high the ghost it speaks |
And his heart’s left troubled while it seeks |
For heaven and grace |
In this place |
He walks with a smile on his face |
Because he lives in a colourful place |
He walks with at sown pace |
The soles of his feet above disgrace |
The son of the teachers falls in love |
With an idea filled with romantic stuff |
All too aware of tragic fate |
But that’s how it is in a colourful place |
For all time it’s there |
But this fool won’t scare |
