| Rose Colored Eyes (R. Mosley) 1. Star's eyes once gazed upon me here Now fallen deep, oh, sound of dawn of fear Empty smiles on youth today That lessons teach has gone away, they say 2. Smiling people's crooked toys walk by the store Go ahead to the monkey clock, said I, "What for?" A horror sight when laughing too And broken dreams are just as they are told to you 3. Tell me I'm wrong, I don't care if I'm right, I'll just groove along Spit in the sea, tell me that's it and I'll ring your gong The gift of breath is stolen each day And someone prays the rains will come and that's today - Heartache, nothing but trouble haunts my every dream Sadness, you've placed me inside of that which I have seen (Spoken:) Say, colored boy. (Yeah?) Get out of my town. (If it's your town, I'll get out of it!) Long haired creep! (Swear to it.) Do your thing, stray cat. The gift of breath is stolen each day That someone prays the rains will come and that's today |
