These Colors Don't Run

In a house that needs a washing
In a whitewashed washing town
Them rains of gold are falling on Lady Freedom's crown
Her green light says to come on home
Cross skies and seas of blue
But her light won't shine forever
With walls it can't go through

You said these colours don't run, these colours don't run
Why are you so afraid?
You said these colours don't run, these colours don't run
Why are you so afraid?

Where the purple mountains, majesties, rise up from red and blue
Vecinos de bronces, precious bronze, bring wealth to me and you
And if we build it, they won't come, the lady's torch will flicker
We'll turn gray and crumble in the cruel desert winds

You said these colours don't run, these colours don't run
Why are you so afraid?
You said these colours don't run, these colours don't run
Why are you so afraid?

Your god's engraved in the grayest of steel
With the power to take life, never give
She wields it with whimsy, against old, against young
If you'd let her go, they could live

Eh, eh you said these colours don't run, these colours don't run
Why are you so afraid?
You said these colours don't run, these colours don't run (red, white and blue)
Why are you so afraid? (Brown, black and white)
You said these colours don't run, these colours don't run (red, yellow, brown, black and white)

Red, white and blue, red, white and blue
These colours don't run
