This one started out as a simple three chord song and it evolved into a pretty lengthy one with lots of parts.

Bobbles Clifton - Green and Red - Lyrics

I know now that you're wondering how I could be this.
And I'm sure that you wanted more than feelings.
I confuse the green and red.

Oh my God I've found somebody who likes you.
Don't ask why this is, I could lie if I tried to;
Look at you in a different way.
With a different view than I had today.

Green and red and blue.
Green and red and blue are the colours that I.
Green and red and blue.
Green and red and blue are the colours that I knew.

Look at me she said I can be what you're wanting.
I don't know because it might grow into something.
In my heart and in my head;
I confuse the green and red.

Pardon me for breathing but I really need the air.
The day I start believing is the day I come prepared.
Getting hung for treason do I wish I wasn't there.
Maybe that's the reason that you didn't really care.

That I had a trip or fall.
Did you get anything at all?
Slip in the concert hall,
Why not give us a call?

There's no hidden fees.
You must get money for your injuries oh.
Yes it grows on trees.
Just hand over your keys.

In spring time, the sun comes down.
And in time we all turn light brown.
Ah ha ha.

Breathe if you want to I know if you don't you'll be sleepy.
Well you came here with a funny idea how to treat me.
I've been in bed she lies instead but you see;
The green and the red it's what she said to confuse me.

Green is mutha lovin.
Green is mutha lovin man called.
Are you coming around?
Are you coming around?

And are you sure that everything is alright?
Cos I want you more than anything else in life. Whoop.

I know now that you're wondering how I could be this.
And I'm sure that you wanted more than feelings.

Nobody hears you when you cry.
No one here knows how it really died.
