Red Lyrics - Singles - Young Dubliners

Paint on your nail smells like kerosene 

Before these blisters we were squeaky clean 

We were Mr. and Mrs. Butter and Cream 

Sweet things turn sour honey, love's never clean 

And I see red, red, red 

Don't you hear what I said? 

And it's thicker than the water 

It'll rush into your head 

And I see red, red, red 

Don't you hear what I said? 

They're pulling on my strings 

Baby, shaking up the bed 

Creeps in the attic, putting salt on our tails 

Big bucks and high heels drove us both off the rails 

We were sun gods in Athens but uncommonly pale 

Tans don't last long, baby, white bread gets stale

Don't you hear what I said? 

They're pulling on my strings 

Baby, shaking up the bed 

And I"m near you but I can't hear you but 

I'm out here guessing 

You're guessing too 

You're guessing too 

And I see red, red, red 

Don't you hear what I said? 

And it's thicker than the water 

It'll rush into your head
