I See Red (Rafferty, Rafferty) - 4:07

Back in my school days acting the fool boys
One and one and one made three
And the man said come and cut yourself a piece of the big time.

Armour-clad forces riding trojan horses
Never made sense to me
I didn??™t wanna be a part of the great debate on moonshine.

???Stop, pay the price??™, they said to me, ???take this advice:
You??™re out of your head??™
Stop, hold the ???phone -- this has to be cut to the bone
Too bad -- I see red
I see red. I see red.

She slips and stumbles, twists and she tumbles
She always lands on her feet
And she keeps her face turned to the far horizon.

Won??™t you come this way -- won??™t you go my way
Her rhythm doesn??™t miss a beat
She??™s just doin??™ everything she can to keep surviving.

???Stop, pay the price??™, she said to me, ???take this advice:
You??™re out of your head??™
Stop, hold the ???phone -- this has to be cut to the bone
Too bad -- I see red.
I see red. I see red. Yeah.

Now who wants a riot -- people should be quiet
Don??™t we give ???em good TV
You can learn to love a lifetime of distraction.

You??™ve got nothin??™ on the inside, nothin??™ on the outside
All the way from A to B
I can live without that kind of satisfaction.

???Stop, pay the price??™, she said to me, ???take this advice:
You??™re out of your head??™
Stop, hold the ???phone -- this has to be cut to the bone
Too bad -- I see red
I see red. I see red. I see red. Yeah.

(fade and repeat)
I see red
I see red
You make me see red
Yes I see red
I see red
I see red.
