Blue World

                                  There you go again

Pretending that the world is blue

And you see red when I explain

That I don't share your point of view

Well I say open up your eyes

For the world is like a rainbow

And maybe blue is just the colour

Of the world inside of you

But that kind of blue world

That's not my world

I don't want to paint your picture

I ain't here to sing your sorrows

Ain't got time to be your hero

I don't want to be your poet



Chorus



Everybody feel the same pain

Everybody doing time

I can't be the one you're needing

I can just be who I am





Who I am

We all want a world

With a perfect constitution

Believe me, we all want it now

Don't want to wait another day

And maybe if this world's to change

It's going to take a revolution

But in the meantime, be my friend

And don't turn your head away

For your kind of blue world

That's not my world

I don't want to paint your picture

I don't want to write your dreams

I ain't here to sing your sorrows

Your blue world is not my scene

Ain't got time to be your hero

You can tell me that's a crime

I don't want to be your poet

Crying out your ancient rhyme
