What Colour Is God Songtext
von Fish

I was thinking about thinking
About thinking about thinking
I was thinking
Contemplating situations
And the visions blew my mind
In the gutter I was crawling
As the shells just kept on falling all around me

What colour is God?
(Why can′t you tell me? Why can't you tell me?)
What colour is God?
(Why can′t you tell me? Why can't you tell me?)
What colour is God?
(Why can't you tell me? Why can′t you tell me?)
What colour is God?
(Why can′t you tell me? Why can't you tell me?)

As the library was burning
And the pages kept on turning back in history
As the doorways they were full of refugees and lonely people staring at me
They were asking of me


What colour is God?
What colour is God?
What colour is God?
What colour is God?

No matter what I say or do it never looks like making any difference
Don′t keep on looking down at me as if I don't exist as if I′m not here
Don't focus all your anger and resentment that you have
Don′t blame it on me
Don't blame it on me

What colour is God?
(Why can't you tell me? Why can′t you tell me?)
What colour is God?
(Why can′t you tell me? Why can't you tell me?)
What colour is God?
(Why can′t you tell me? Why can't you tell me?)
What colour is God?
(Why can′t you tell me? Can't you tell me?)

Black brother in an open sports car
Pulled over by suspicious officer
Uniform man got a nervous partner
Weapon was pulled from a shoulder holster


White jogger see the roadside gansta
Heart beat just a little bit faster
Rasta man speaking in the island Patois
Gonna give you the righteous answer

(Why can′t you tell me? Why can't you tell me?)
What colour is God?
(Why can't you tell me? Why can′t you tell me?)
What colour is God?
(Why can′t you tell me? Why can't you tell me?)
What colour is God?
(Why can′t you tell me? Why can't you tell me?)

No matter what I say or do it never looks like making any difference
Don′t focus all your anger and resentment that you have
Don't blame it on me
Don′t blame it on me

What colour is God?
(Why can't you tell me? Why can't you tell me?)
What colour is God?
(Why can′t you tell me? Why can′t you tell me?)
What colour is God?
(Why can't you tell me? Why can′t you tell me?)
What colour is God?
(Why can't you tell me? Why can′t you tell me?)

Please, please, please, tell me
What colour is God?
Please, please, please, tell me

Testing, one-two one-two, hallelujah praise the lord
