Painting the town with the colours we choose

To the eye you’re floating, but inside you’re choking, drowning in blue
G                        F
Flooded in the flourish, colours crushed your courage
   G   Am   E      G

Green meadows

Give green leisure

A pink stomach

And pink cheeks

Ashamed and embarrassed
   F           G
And pink so to speak
A                        C         G
Searching the town for whatever we please

Searching the town for the pinks and the greens, yeah
