all we can see here is red (a song)

All this killing, the gore and the blood

The good old value of peace in the mud

And this ignorance of what lies ahead!

Time, that thief, swiftly running out

Minds – muddled, clouded with doubt

All we can see here is red.

 .

Murdered voices, muffled silences

Freedom plundered, dispensable fences

And oh, these dreams of the dead!

Innocence raped, dignity coiled

The holy dove cornered, wounded, soiled

All we can see here is red.

 .

Enough of these crippled cries of despair

As it is, no one couldn’t less care

We’re comfortable with what we thought we’d dread.

For once, maybe, we shall allow some dope

But come on boys, sing of love and hope

All we can see here is red.

 .

What’s wrong John? Don’t just stare boy; sing

Hey Mojo, come on! Play that thing

And let me get some wine and bread.

Tell you what; I won’t take my evening any duller

Elvis boy, do you mind adding some color

(We won’t stop anymore. Would we?)

We’ve had enough of this red.
