Red Is Lyrics by Erica Freas

Young

2020

[Verse 1]
Red is deep in your mouth and your blood
Red is ladybugs, stop sign, morning sky
[Verse 2]
Yellow, sunshine, pee in the yellow van
Lightbulbs and headlights
A yellow sign means think twice
Orange is tiger stripes, the fruit, your mom’s tights
Pumpkins and pumpkin pie, marbles in tiger’s eye
[Verse 3]
Blue is deep water, the sky, the eye of your daughter
Mattie’s hoody is blue
Green is in all the trees
In all the moss and the ships out at sea
Lettuce and fireflies
Green lullabies
[Verse 4]
Brown is the flash of a hawk’s wing
Your dad’s hair, darjeeling
Tree bark, a warm shade of dark
Grey is like the winter sky, or elephant skin, mud pie
River clay, dirty white is grey
Dirty white is grey
[Verse 5]
Black coffee, dark as night
Like cast iron or lack of light
Eyeliner and cars' tires and drawing ink
White noise, if you’re sleepy, nap
Big teeth, shark attack!
Empty paper, clouds and bones
Magenta is pretty hard to explain
Just like acid wash, fuschia or teal
Or aquamarine, neon green
[Verse 6]
Well, purple, pink, and white are your favourite colours
In a contest, they’d win the best prize for being colours
The best prize for being colours
Little babies, you are my favourite
In a contest, you would win the best prize for being babies
The best prize for being babies
