Colorful Kids Lyrics

Ha Ha Tonka Colorful Kids

Colorful kids
We were colorful kids
In a black and white world
There's nothing that they
Could keep hidden from us

We didn't have much
We couldn't care less
Were we innocent? No
Well maybe, I guess we were

I see me as I was
And you as you were
Me as I was
You as you were
Before the color
Began to bleed
Out of us

Huckleberry Finn
We need a Huck Finn
To figure out a way
That we could run away again

The duke and the king
The duke and the king
Are coming into town
To carry out another scheme

I see me as I was
And you as you were
Me as I was
You as you were
Before the color
Began to bleed
Out of us

But that's just the way it is
Even the colorful kids
Eventually will fade
Into the black and white
Come out the other side
An ugly shade of gray

I see me as I was
And you as you were
Me as I was
You as you were
Before the color
Began to bleed out of us
