I've read it all, it's black and white
The spectrum made a shade I like
The crimson rays are ruby bright
Oh, technicolor light

(red, red!) I want red
There's no substitute for red
(red, red!) paint it red
Green ain't mean compared to red

You don't know what it does to me
My crimson shared intensity
I'm haunted by the mystery
Oh, mystery of red

(red, red!) red knocks 'em dead
Some like it hot, I like it read

Red's my lover, got it covered
Red's my number, sure as a coma
Red's my drummer, can't break thunder
Move over brother, red's a mother, yeah, yeah, yeah

(red, red!) oh, oh, red
(red, red!) don't go to bed, take over

(red, red!) red!
Yeah, yeah, yeah
(red, red!) oh, gimme' that expensive spread

(red, red!) that's what I said, what I said
(red, red!) come on to bed, come on

(red, red!) red, red!
(red, red!) move over, move over, move over, move over, move
