Touch of Grey - Touch of Grey lyrics

Must be getting early Clocks are running late Paint-by-number morning sky Looks so phony Dawn is breaking everywhere Light a candle, curse the glare Draw the curtains I don't care 'cause It's all right I will get by I will get by I will get by I will survive I see you've got your fist out Say your piece and get out Yes, I get the gist of it But it's all right Sorry that you feel that way The only thing there is to say Every silver lining's got a Touch of grey I will get by I will get by I will get by I will survive It's a lesson to me The Ables and the Bakers and the C's The ABC's, we all must face And try to keep a little grace It's a lesson to me The Deltas and the East and the Freeze The ABC's, we all think of Try to give a little love I know the rent is in arrears The dog has not been fed in years It's even worse than it appears But it's all right The cow is giving kerosene Kid can't read at seventeen The words he knows are all obscene But it's all right I will get by I will get by I will get by I will survive The shoe is on the hand it fits There's really nothing much to it Whistle through your teeth and spit 'Cause it's all right Oh well, a touch of grey Kind of suits you anyway That was all I had to say It's all right I will get by I will get by I will get by I will survive We will get by We will get by We will get by We will survive We will get by We will get by We will get by We will survive
