[Verse 1] I don't understand about complementary colors And what they say Side by side they both get bright together They both get gray [Chorus 1] But he's been pretty much yellow And I've been kind of blue But all I can see is Red, red, red, red, red Now, what am I gonna do? [Verse 2] I don't understand about diamonds And why men buy them What's so impressive about a diamond Except the mining? [Chorus 2] But it's dangerous work Trying to get to you, too And I think if I didn't have to k** k**, k**, k**, k** myself doing it Maybe I wouldn't think so much of you [Bridge] I've been watching all the time And I still can't find the tack But I wanna know is, is it okay? Is it just fine? Or is it my fault? Is it my lack? [Verse 3] I don't understand about The weather outside Or the harmony in a tune Or why somebody lied [Chorus 3] But there's solace a bit in submitting To the fitfully, cryptically true What's happened, has happened What's coming is already on its way With a role for me to play [Outro] And I don't understand I never understand But I'll try to understand There's nothing else I can do
