The color-coded town,
They had one rule no grays allowed,
It was a great offense,
It brought no compliments,
A stranger to the town he came,
And met a girl that very few would say,
Is worth thinking of,
Still he fell in love,
And he brought her flowers every day,
And she loved them,
She loved him she d never felt that way,
But they said hey those flowers they are gray,
They can t stay no, no, well, well,
We ll let it slide, but read our signs we don t like grays,

Then one day they saw her in a dress,
A gift from him it was gray and red,
It stopped them in their tracks,
Ooo, they knew it matched,

A revolution there was shortly found,
Inside that color-coded town,
Same happy, some enraged,
So they marched on over to the place where,

He brought her flowers every day,
And she loved them,
She loved him she d never felt that way,
But they cried let s take him to his grave,
He can t stay no, no, well, well,
We ve done told him once, but now he s done,

They cried, We told you stay away,
From that crazy color,
Turn around if you don t we ll break you,
And you don t have anyone to save you,

He said, She needs me to stay,
Cuz gray can take her sorrow,
So I will die tonight so she will know,
That gray will stay in the color-code, yeah

For my love I will die you know,
But before I do let the record show,
C
That I brought her flowers every day,
And she loved them,
She loved me she d never felt that way,
So if you feel you need some gray,
That s ok child, cuz you know you ve just got to ask,
And I ll come back,

You know you ve just got to ask,
And I ll come back, oh
You know you ve just got to ask,
And I ll come back to give you grace
