You'll never have the damn thing out |
|
Or meet the pope and kiss his neck |
|
And like him more than you expect |
|
And in my mind the color red |
|
Is writ in blood above your head |
|
Tonight -- when the time is right |
|
You'll never wear the damned thing out |
|
Or meet the queen and kiss her throat |
|
And ask her where she hangs her coat |
|
And in my mind the color blue |
|
Will never be as dark as you |
|
Tonight -- when the time is right |
|
You'll never wash the damned things out |
|
Or meet the judge and kiss his figs |
|
And wonder where he keeps his wigs |
|
And in my mind the color pink |
|
Will do more damage than you think |
|
Tonight |
|
And in my mind the color green |
|
Is oh so lovely and obscene |
|
Tonight -- when the time is right |
