Colours, bright and blazing Colours, dark and drab Colours all around us Colours we can grab Wear your colours proudly In almost all you do But, be careful with your colours Others have colours too Black and White Red and Blue Orange, Green as well Blue and Grey Dark or Light Colours show and tell Your colours tell us lots of things Like which team you support But, wear your colours carefully Or you'll end up in court Colours can cause skirmishes Colours can cause wars Colours can cause arguements Colours break down doors Wear your colours proudly No matter what they be But, A White Hood worn in Harlem And you'll be hanging from a tree Colours are religion Colours are your soul Colours show your preference Colours make you whole I don't know what your colour is In fact I just don't care I only know your colours Let others know you're there Black and White Red and Blue Orange, Green as well Blue and Grey Dark or Light Colours show and tell Colours push the envelope Colours blur the lines Colours make a challenge Colours show whats mine Colours make us happy Colours take away Colours help us know ourselves Colours make our day Wear your colours proudly Be it red, or black or pink Yellow, Green or Orange No matter what folks think But, wear your colours safely Wear them and be proud that you are seen But, be careful what they say because Remember just what colours mean This is not written as a warning I just want you to be proud Of what colours signify you Wear them out and wear them loud Black and White Red and Blue Orange, Green as well Blue and Grey Dark or Light Colours show and tell
