Red, Orange, & Yellow

They say you can't rhyme with orange
But every other color's so boring
I want out the box, I'm in storage
Where's the spice? I don't like porridge
What's the point of all this scoring
If all you talk about's your mortgage
Don't stay inside when it's pouring
We just fall asleep, we're all snoring
I'm red, a redhead with bed head instead
Of a wed winner, I'm a sinner, a dead zed
I can't tread with no cred
Bred instead to be led by some
Ted with med threads
I said I dread what I bled
I fed my head with dead shreds
I pled and spread what I read
And now all I see is red, red, red, red

I wish you could see what I see
You wish I could go where you'll be
Trapped in different worlds and I am broken
I hope you can see clearer now
You hope I can rescue myself
Treading in the middle of the ocean
You see me
And I see red
This isn't something that I would have chosen

I'm past blue, feeling purple
Stuck in my shell like a turtle
Being verbal is my hurdle
Stuck in a social semicircle
I think I'm too experimental
To be interdepartmental
Is it just coincidental
That my goals are all mental?
I'm yellow
A mellow fellow, bellowing from Monticello
Elbow to elbow is a no-no, read it in my memo
Think I need espresso, my mind is going too slow
I'll start the show tomorrow
I can't go with the flow no mo' so

I wish you could see what I see
You wish I could go where you'll be
Trapped in different worlds and I am broken
I hope you can see clearer now
You hope I can rescue myself
Treading in the middle of the ocean
You see me
And I see red
This isn't something that I would have chosen

My world shattered with your silence
I can't hear you, it's so quiet
I want you to tell me it's okay, you're okay

My world shattered with your silence
I can't hear you, it's so quiet
I want you to tell me it's okay, you're okay

My world shattered with your silence
I can't hear you, it's so quiet
I want you to tell me it's okay, you're okay

I wish you could see what I see
You wish I could go where you'll be
Trapped in different worlds and I am broken
I hope you can see clearer now
You hope I can rescue myself
Treading in the middle of the ocean
You see me
And I see red
This isn't something that I would have chosen
