My jumper was navy, I thought it was black
Turned to the whitest shade of pale
Someone became green with envy
Left the blues behind 'cause I was colourblind
Now I'm sitting in the sun, I'm trying to get sunburnt
Everything I thought about pales in the insignificance
I'm just trying to get brown 'cause I'm browned off
With this situation
There were once black and white movies
Then it became Technicolour
Then I've seen your photographs in my album, in my scrapbook
I looked upon with wonder
Someone became green with envy
I started to laugh out loud, said, "You must be joking"
I left the blues behind
When I became just colourblind
There were once black and white movies
Then it became Technicolour
There I've seen your photographs in my scrapbook
That I looked upon and wondered, yeah-yeah
Now I'm sitting in the sun, I'm trying to get sunburnt
Everything I thought about pales in the insignificance
I'm just trying to get brown, I'm a bit red
But I feel like I'm just browned off
My jumper was navy, I thought it was black
When I turned to the whitest shade of pale
You're so red when someone was green with envy
And I became colourblind
I thought I left the blues behind
While I became colourblind
Now I realised I was colourblind
Now I realised, I got wise, baby
I must have been colourblind
And now I realise, I got wise
To you, I was colourblind
