The Red Cap Songtext
von The Ark

I see you′re not wearing your red cap anymore
Well, I heard someone say you thought it was getting too small
Well, I wish I knew how to alter it
But I don't know how to sew
So if you like to wear it
Then I guess it′s all up to you

Standing with your red cap on the barricades
I didn't like you all that much before
But now since you've stopped wearing it
I dislike you even more

I heard you′re not playing the guitar for fifty years soon
Well, it′s hard, hard to play the guitar when it's way out of tune
Well, I wish I knew how to tune it
But I haven′t got the ears
So if someone's gonna do it
Then it′s you again I fear


Standing playing guitar on the barricades
I didn't like you all that much before
But now since you′ve stopped playing it
I dislike you even more

I've heard that you're not singing songs anymore
But actually I don′t believe you when
You say it′s 'cause your throat is sore
You′d better open up your ears
'Cause there′s a new song coming in
And if you pick, pick out the tune
Maybe even I will join in

Standing singing songs upon the barricades
I didn't like you all that much before
But now since you′ve let your dear songs die out
I dislike you even more

Standing with your red cap on the barricades
I didn't like you all that much before
But now since you've stopped wearing it
I dislike you even more

I see you′re not wearing your red cap anymore
