Lime green lime green lime green and tangerine,
Are the sickly sweet colours of the snakes I'm seein'.
Aº
Lime green lime green and tangerine,
Are the sickly sweet colours of the devil in my dreams.
Aº
Lime green, lime green, lime green and tangerine,
Are the sickly sweet colours of the snakes I'm seein'.
Aº
Lime green, lime green and tangerine,
Are the sickly sweet colours of the devil in my dreams.
It gets to Friday and I give you a call,
"You know I'm getting kind of worried.
No she doesn't seem herself at all...
Lime green and a sickly kind of orange,
Aº
I've never seen her like this before... "
I had the best laid plans this side of America,
Started out in church and finished with Angelica.
Red and Blue Soul with a snow white smile,
"Can you dig it?"
I had the best laid plans this side of America,
Started out in church and finished with Angelica.
And now I'm digging in the dirt and I'm down here for a while...
You've got to make up your mind and make it soon,
Is there room in your life, for one more trip to the M-o-o-n?
Is there room in your life, for one more...

Burn red, burn red, burn red burn red and gold,
Are the deep dark colours of the snakes I hold.
Aº
Burn red, burn red, burn red and gold,
Are the deep dark colours of the Devil, at home.
"She pulls me down just as I'm trying to hide,
Grabs me by the hair and drags me outside.
And starts digging in the dirt...
Aº
For a not so early bird it's the only way for her to get the worm...
"I had the best laid plans this side of America,
Started out in church and finished with Angelica.
Red and blue soul with a snow white smile,
"Can you dig it?"
I had the best laid plans this side of America,
Started out in church and finished with Angelica.
And now I digging in the dirt and I'll be down here for a while...
"Hello? Hello? Are you still there?"
... And much too late...
"... 'Sorry... Wrong number... "
