Revenge of the Gray

i saw a god fall on high
he was screaming in the sky
he was such a little guy
he dazed me

i saw the turning man run
with crayons and a gun
said that he had a plan
to save me

dreams made the younger man cry
the birds could no longer fly
we wandered on the land
for days it seemed

be bop the god drop gotta drop it do it
doo wop the cop stop nothing for to do it
dance in the light of day
until it goes away
revenge of the gray
be bop the god drop gotta drop it do it
doo wop the cop stop nothing for to do it
who's gonna stop you
revenge of the gray

you took the letter away
and told me i should pay
for the thousand stupid things
that haunt me

lost all my colors in rain
let the ocean have all my pain
let the rivers die in the spring
who wants me

be bop the god drop gotta drop it do it
doo wop the cop stop nothing for to do it
dance in the light of day
until it goes away
revenge of the gray
be bop the god drop gotta drop it do it
doo wop the cop stop nothing for to do it
who's gonna stop you
revenge of the gray

the turning man went on the run
his crayons burned in the sun
nothing is ever quite done
and she liked it

the story had a twist of fate
just to make everybody else wait
then they put a tattoo on god
and she liked it

oh, oh
revenge of the gray

fire and children and timber and rocks
drunkards and dragons live on our block
jesus lost his alibi
in the river of time

be bop the god drop gotta drop it do it
doo wop the cop stop nothing for to do it
dance in the light of day
until it goes away
revenge of the gray
be bop the god drop gotta drop it do it
doo wop the cop stop nothing for to do it
who's gonna stop you
revenge of the gray
