Red is a mean, mean colour

 

Can you remember being south of Brighton
Head full of floating memories
Swimming to the grey horizon
Trying to escape the enemy

 

Who can quote from a thousand young poets
And with a flag on his back he can shine
Who has a dream but can never show it
Who is drunk from the mad man’s wine

 

He's just a body, a beat-up body
He gets his kicks on a fatal crash
And he carries a sign that screams
‘Red is a mean, mean colour’
