Colorful kids We were colorful kids In a black and white world There's nothing that they Could keep hidden from us We didn't have much We couldn't care less Were we innocent? No. Well maybe, I guess we were I see me as I was And you as you were Me as I was You as you were Before the color Began to bleed Out of us Huckleberry Finn We need a Huck Finn To figure out a way That we could run away again The duke and the king The duke and the king
Are coming into town To carry out another scheme I see me as I was And you as you were Me as I was You as you were Before the color Began to bleed Out of us But that's just the way it is Even the colorful kids eventually will fade Into the black and white Come out the other side an ugly shade of gray I see me as I was And you as you were Me as I was You as you were Before the color Began to bleed out of us
