I See Red

(album: More Fun In The New World - 1983)

She wore blue, her bad luck blue shoes
He wore green for go, they went out any way
She and their car wore black through the red light
"Stop, I forgot all my memories"

I see red when I see you
Fan belts break at three AM
I get mad, drinks get spilled
At five past two, I don't feel sad
But then I see you
And I see red

I can't look down or I might fall on you
I might follow in your footsteps
I see a showdown at sundown, what's the lowdown?
I had to hunt, I had to hunt you up

I see red when I see you
Fan belts break at three AM
I get mad, drinks get spilled
At five past two, I don't feel sad
But then I see you
And I see red, haha

He sees the sun come up and she needs rest
Here comes a creeping so close to the bed
"Good morning darkness, I see your shining face"
She's always thinking about the facts of life

I see red when I see you
Fan belts break at three AM
I get mad, drinks get spilled
At five past two, I don't feel sad
But then I see you
And I see red
