Red Red Red Lyrics - Extraordinary Machine - Fiona Apple

I don't understand about complementary colors 

And what they say 

Side by side they both get bright 

Together they both get gray 

But he's been pretty much yellow 

And I've been kinda blue 

But all I can see is 

Red, red, red, red, red now 

What am I gonna do 

I don't understand about 

Diamonds and why men buy them 

What's so impressive about a diamond 

Except the mining 

But it's dangerous work 

Trying to get to you too 

And I think if I didn't have to 

Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill myself doing it 

Maybe I wouldn't 

Think so much of you 

I've been watching all the time 

And I still can't find the tack 

And I wanna know is it okay 

Is it just fine 

Or is it my fault 

Is it my lack 

I don't understand about 

The weather outside 

Or the harmony in a tune 

Or why somebody lies 

There's solace a bit for submitting 

To the fitfully cryptically true 

What's happened has happened 

What's coming is already on its way 

With a role for me to play 

I don't understand 

I'll never understand 

But I'll try to understand 

There's nothing else I can do
