VERSE
He left one Sunday afternoon
She was blue, black and green
He said he would be returnin' soon
She was blue, black and green
This isn't love; she'd had enough
This time the door got locked
This time no one was shocked
That she's blue, black and green
First CHORUS
The colors on her skin tell just part of the story
She was about done in; tired of bein' his territory
Nothing excuses the bruises on her mind
Now she's gonna do what she chooses, and he's gonna lose this time
VERSE
The children listen, hear the thunder
Blue, black and green
People stare at them in wonder
Blue, black and green
Their eyes just cry; sometimes they fear for their lives
It's wrong, but they're staying strong
And today, they're gonna have their say
About blue, black and green
Second CHORUS
The colors on her skin tell just part of the story
She was about done in; tired of bein' his territory
Nothing excuses the bruises on her mind
Now they're gonna do what they choose, and he's gonna lose this time
BRIDGE
Bravely, they huddled up to talk
They knew, anytime, he'd be coming up the walk
So they made a plan; they'd be takin' a stand
And how ever it ends, at least it will end
SOLO/Repeat Second CHORUS/TAG
Blue, black and green
