Color Me Once

Artists : Violent Femmes, The : Color Me Once

Color me once
Color me twice
Everything gonna turn out nice

Everlasting arms
You gotta keep me from these false alarms

Alarm, alarm I see you sad
Ring, ring I see you I'm glad
Maybe maybe
I'm the fire of her desire

Patience, patience
Said the man
Patience patience
I can't understand
Patience like a man and a wife
I got patience on my neck like a cold cold knife

I say Jack be nimble Jack fall dead
Jack bend over and give Jilly head

Oh you gotta help my body feel my soul

Dead men working a sinner, a saint
Mixing up a pail of paint
Painted the house, black as night
When the sun came up the house was white

Gotta go on
Gotta go on
We gotta go on
You gotta go on
You gotta go on
Go on
Go on

Try and live life like I couldn't
