Pinker Shade of Blue

Ten months I gave you the benefit of the doubt
Your hatred got the better of the cause you claim to represent
He was chosen by the masses on the streets
Just count the conmen quaking as he speaks

Judas stabbed him in the back
Resignation or the sack
You leave the pack
You're not coming back

Wear red, stand and shout
Subversives will not sell us out
Wear red, stand and shout
Subversives will not sell us out

So as you relight the fire they stamped out
Why the hell we even bothering to shout?
So you'd better watch the things you say and do
You'll only ever be pinker shade of blue

Raw Power, Red Rage
Power pigs are gonna pay
Raw Power, Red Rage
Status quo is fucking lame

Nothing takes away the fact we have to shout
The opposition, devil's advocate
What are we supposed to do?
You're only in it to support your own career
Playing safe instead of changing gear

You don't wanna break the mould
You're just doing what your told
Well it's getting old!
It's time to take control

Wear red, stand and shout
Subversives will not sell us out
Wear red, stand, and shout
Subversives will not sell us out

So as you relight the fire they stamped out
Why the hell we even bothering to shout?
So you'd better watch the things you say and do
You'll only ever be pinker shade of blue

We all search for a better world
You want hope, you're not the only one
Take a look and see how far we've come
Stop telling us we're done!

Judas stabbed him in the back
Why not say "I'm alright, Jack"?
Just leave the pack
You're not coming back

Wear red, stand and shout
Subversives will not sell us out
Wear red, stand and shout
Subversives will not sell us out

So as you relight the fire they stamped out
Why the hell we even bothering to shout?
So you'd better watch the things you say and do
You'll only ever be pinker shade of blue

Stop telling us we're done!
