Lyrics to I See Red
Back in my school days acting the fool boys
One and one and one made three
And the man said come and cut yourself a piece of the big time.
Armour-clad forces riding trojan horses
Never made sense to me
I didnât wanna be a part of the great debate on moonshine.
âStop, pay the priceâ, they said to me, âtake this advice:
Youâre out of your headâ
Stop, hold the âphone -- this has to be cut to the bone
Too bad -- I see red
I see red. I see red.
She slips and stumbles, twists and she tumbles
She always lands on her feet
And she keeps her face turned to the far horizon.
Wonât you come this way -- wonât you go my way
Her rhythm doesnât miss a beat
Sheâs just doinâ everything she can to keep surviving.
âStop, pay the priceâ, she said to me, âtake this advice:
Youâre out of your headâ
Stop, hold the âphone -- this has to be cut to the bone
Too bad -- I see red.
I see red. I see red. Yeah.
Now who wants a riot -- people should be quiet
Donât we give âem good TV
You can learn to love a lifetime of distraction.
Youâve got nothinâ on the inside, nothinâ on the outside
All the way from A to B
I can live without that kind of satisfaction.
âStop, pay the priceâ, she said to me, âtake this advice:
Youâre out of your headâ
Stop, hold the âphone -- this has to be cut to the bone
Too bad -- I see red
I see red. I see red. I see red. Yeah.
(fade and repeat)
I see red
I see red
You make me see red
Yes I see red
I see red
I see red.
One and one and one made three
And the man said come and cut yourself a piece of the big time.
Armour-clad forces riding trojan horses
Never made sense to me
I didnât wanna be a part of the great debate on moonshine.
âStop, pay the priceâ, they said to me, âtake this advice:
Youâre out of your headâ
Stop, hold the âphone -- this has to be cut to the bone
Too bad -- I see red
I see red. I see red.
She slips and stumbles, twists and she tumbles
She always lands on her feet
And she keeps her face turned to the far horizon.
Wonât you come this way -- wonât you go my way
Her rhythm doesnât miss a beat
Sheâs just doinâ everything she can to keep surviving.
âStop, pay the priceâ, she said to me, âtake this advice:
Youâre out of your headâ
Stop, hold the âphone -- this has to be cut to the bone
Too bad -- I see red.
I see red. I see red. Yeah.
Now who wants a riot -- people should be quiet
Donât we give âem good TV
You can learn to love a lifetime of distraction.
Youâve got nothinâ on the inside, nothinâ on the outside
All the way from A to B
I can live without that kind of satisfaction.
âStop, pay the priceâ, she said to me, âtake this advice:
Youâre out of your headâ
Stop, hold the âphone -- this has to be cut to the bone
Too bad -- I see red
I see red. I see red. I see red. Yeah.
(fade and repeat)
I see red
I see red
You make me see red
Yes I see red
I see red
I see red.
