I walked through the carnival gates,
I walked awhile alone,
I met a man with a clownie face, he said he's all alone,
He gave me a book of poems, paints in color blue,
He said look up in the sky and you fly,

Red, red, it's the colors in my head,
Now he's here, and now he's here and he wants to paint me red,
Red, red, it's the colors in my head,
Now he's here, and here and now and he wants to paint me red,

Then he said he worked in carnival for very long time,
He said with other peoples money there's no tellin' where it flys,
Hold yourself, and keep your faith and look up in the sky,
All our life all lives in the colors in the sky,

Red, red, it's the colors in my head,
Now he's here, and now he's here and he wants to paint me red,

Red

I remember that day so long ago,
I will not forget his message, i will share it so,
He said the life you know is a calidescope,
He said the life you know is a calidescope,
He said the life you know is a calidescope,

Red red it's the colors in my head.
