Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don't understand
About complimentary colors
And what they say
Side-by-side, they both get bright
Together, they both get gray
[Verse 2]
But he's been pretty much yellow
And I've been kind of blue
But all I can see is red, red, red, red, red now
What am I gonna do?
[Verse 3]
I don't understand
About diamonds
And why men buy them
What's so impressive
About a diamond except the mining?
[Verse 4]
But it's dangerous work
Trying to get to you too
And I think, if I didn't have to kill, kill, kill, kill, kill
Kill myself doing it
Maybe I wouldn't think so much of you
[Verse 5]
I've been watching all the time
And I still can't find the tack
But what I want to know is
Is it okay? Is it just fine?
Or is it my fault? Is it my lack?
[Verse 6]
I don't understand
About the weather outside
Or the harmony in a tune
Or why somebody lied
But there's solace
A bit
In submitting to the fitfully, cryptically true
[Verse 7]
What's happened has happened
What's coming is already on its way
With a role for me to play
And I don't understand
I'll never understand
But I'll try to understand
There's nothing else I can do
