Just paint it black,
Forget the red,
Just paint it black,
And you’ll be dead,
Who cares about life?
It’ll soon be gone,
It only delays,
The soul to move on,
Just paint it black,
Forget the blue,
Just paint it black,
And you’ll be screwed,
The oceans are thinning,
The world set ablaze,
The darkness is creeping,
And prepare for death’s gaze,
Just paint it black,
Forget the white,
Just paint it black,
That’s true delight,
Just paint it black,
The color means death,
Just paint it black,
And don’t hold back.
