Lyrics:

Colors

Violet had a fire in her heart she wanted to start
She had a pang in her chest that was starting to smart
You said hey don’t worry about all the pain
Before it was over you were standing out in the rain
Don’t walk alone or try to brave the sidewalk
I know of too many unscrupulous characters to name

Ebony seemed to float above all the gutters
You couldn’t help but open up the shutters
She looked in your window and you pretended to be training
Behind your glasses you can be seen to be straining
Don’t walk alone or try to brave the sidewalk
I know of too many unscrupulous characters to name

Hazel put her bag on the conveyor belt
To remove her shoes and socks she knelt
You looked a little too long and she broke
Disappearing behind all the guard’s smoke
Don’t walk alone or try to brave the sidewalk
I know of too many unscrupulous characters to name

Raven used your likeness in one of her sketches
You don’t see the resemblance as everyone retches
She’s already working on her next manuscript
And the copies of her last one has already shipped
Don’t walk alone or try to brave the sidewalk
I know of too many unscrupulous characters to name

Sage planted all the trees in this meadow
And even though they grew well it was too slow
She hasn’t been back since it turned into your yard
Because she found life out here way too hard
Don’t walk alone or try to brave the sidewalk
I know of too many unscrupulous characters to name

Ivory could feel what you’re selling in her eyes
There was no reason to continue the lies
She never mentioned you or this occasion
Because she understood the art of evasion
Don’t walk alone or try to brave the sidewalk
I know of too many unscrupulous characters to name

Olive knew just what to do as well as how
When she sees you coming she slips out a ciao
Your attempts at response are met with frustration
But luckily your seat doubles as a device of floatation
Don’t walk alone or try to brave the sidewalk
I know of too many unscrupulous characters to name
