Kevin Ayers - Colores Para Dolores lyrics

White is the colour of night

When there's nobody there

And you sit in your chair

Getting drunk on despair.

Red is the colour it's said

That can drive you insane

With pleasure or pain...

It depends on your head.

Brown is the colour of skin

That I'd like to be in

'cause it doesn't feel right

To be coloured so white.

Blue is the colour of sky

And I won't even try

To explain how or why

I'll just show you the sky

Just show you the sky
