Krazy Kolors

Rusty colored AXE's cut down green trees To keep hearts warm when our homes are cold Butcher knives bloody red from slaughtering cattle Yes our children now sleep peacefully with their bellies full Shiny handcuffs send fathers to dark prisons And it seems to me they make the streets more dirty too Judges sit in black robes They slam down wooden hammers And in the back of his mind he didn't understand it either A Teacher stands in front of a green chalkboard She sends a young man to the principles office And from the classroom through the hall to the office the walls are white He stops at waterfountain the button is shiny The stream of water is clear but still he can see it A little girl is abducted in a white car with a shiny police mirror on it The tags say Texas Exempt in blue and white The sun looks down and sees, but I thought sunshine was suppose to be happy orange and yellow The next day the 10 suspects line up) n front if a window and mirror These are the two craziest colors, clear and shiny I don't understand these two colors A dispatch comes in, we can hear through the speakers Now we think clearly even though its clearly obvious We can't see the clear airwaves A Lieutenant dressed in tan rushes through a tan door He says I have the greatest news WE JUST FOUND THE GIRL Clear tears fall from the eyes of the Father and Mother Toxins relieve and it washesof their face this cause of grief Now her comes the little girl running with a pink bow in her hair Now the sunshine is orange and yellow and this day it makes us happy
