Story behind the song
Dedicated to Stevie Wonder & Ray Charles, who though blind, have seen the color of peace.
Lyrics
I turn to purple when I chase the green My efforts are becoming quite obscene But if I don't hold on the treadmill tight I'll soon turn white and sleep that long cold night She turns to blue when the green man bites her neck All the yellow in her heart has sent her love straight down to heck The blackness in her heart has turned her white She's getting ready to give up, life's great fight CHORUS: Voulez-vous me montrer la couleur de la paix? Voulez-vous me montrer la couleur de la paix? Voulez-vous me montrer la couleur de la paix? Red, white, and blue have fought hard with the red Don't even know that they're all in bed! They see each other in colors odd And yet they're all, just the children of God Some people think that just one color's right They see the whole world in black or white And yet it's yellow that taints their mind Their thinking's coming from their behind Voulez-vous me montrer la couleur de la paix? Voulez-vous me montrer la couleur de la paix? Voulez-vous me montrer la couleur de la paix? Can blind men see the colors that I seek? I'd like to ask them, but I'm too meek. Their rainbow: joy, shines a mile away. I'm awed by (the) beauty of this Wonder, Ray. Voulez-vous me montrer la couleur de la paix? Voulez-vous me montrer la couleur de la paix? Voulez-vous me montrer la couleur de la paix? la paix la paix la paix la paix
