Futurevision Lyrics by Adrian Belew

Futurevision Lyrics

    Color futurevision

    Red...for the angry young skinhead
    With a gun stuck down his pants
    And his hands wrapped around a gasoline can
    Blue...for the cruel nude tattoo
    With a dagger slashing a heart in two
    And the words "i'm cool, so screw you", yeah

    I hope we can see there's more than one side
    I know there's no such thing as race, just a human race
    I hope we can see the world is not black and white

    Color futurevision

    Green...for the hatred of the mean people
    And the victims they mistreat who could just as easily
    Be you or me
    Violet...for the violence of a riot
    And the gunfire police siren
    Cars burning and people dying

    I hope we can see there's more than one side
    I know there's no such thing as race, just a human race
    I hope we can see the world is not black and white

    Color futurevision

    Black...for a black man on a black rock
    On a black night when america forgot
    To say "it's alright to be who you are"
    White...for the white robe of jesus christ
    Whose message was each one of us
    Is equal in the eyes of god

    Color futurevision
