if pain was a color to paint on you
 your heart would be the color blue
 it would be a gradient from there till your body met your hair
 which remained a silver hue

 just a mission and a gun to paint rainbows in vietnam
 and a heart that always told you there's a madness in us all
 there's a madness in us all

 so who broke [bad word] 
 who broke [bad word] 
 who broke [bad word] 

 they said every one of (you) would never try to lend a hand
 when the policemen don't understand

 girls all you girls
 yeah you're so American

 he may not be born of this land
 but he was born of this world
 he was born of all the mothers and the colors of our brothers

 he may not know no rock n roll
 and there may not be a heaven or a place of which to send you
 but you know in the end there's a madness in us all
 there's a madness in us all
 there's a madness in us all
 there's a madness in us all
