[Intro]
Hey! Hey
Yeah
Uh, huh, alright

[Verse 1]
What can I do
When the world got me so blue?
Paint myself a different color
Paint myself a different color
What can I say
When the sky outside is gray?
Get myself a paintbrush
And some paint

[Chorus]
And paint myself a different color
Paint myself a different color
Paint myself a different color
A different color, a different color
Paint myself a different color
Paint myself a different color
Paint myself a different color
A different color, a different color

[Verse 2]
What's your excuse
For the crazy things you do?
Why do we abuse each other?
Bruise and scar and use each other?
What's your excuse?
No, we don't need further proof
To get ourselves a paintbrush
And some paint

[Chorus]
And paint myself a different color
Paint myself a different color
Paint myself a different color
A different color, a different color
Paint myself a different color
Paint myself a different color
Paint myself a different color
A different color, a different color

[Bridge]
How did we get where we are?
Big White House is going dark
Noah didn't build the ark
For us to tear the world apart
Moses didn't part the sea
To lead us to captivity
Hope we don't get lost forever
If it's ever gonna get better
I gotta paint myself a different color
A different color, a different color

[Refrain]
Paint myself a different color
Paint myself a different color
Paint myself a different color
A different color, a different color
Paint myself a different color
Paint myself a different color
Paint myself a different color
A different color, a different color

[Outro]
Ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh
