Thoughts and Prayers - A COLORS SHOW
[Verse 1]:
Hello stranger
Girls in danger
But you won't fight hard enough to save her
Said it ain't your issue
'Cause it ain't your sister
It ain't your missus
You don't get it do ya

'Cause if that were me I would'a (Oo)
Maybe I would've, thought for a second
And said maybe I shouldn't
There's blood on my hands after all (Oh God)
Blood on my hands after all

[Pre-Chorus]:
Bow my head, said my prayers
I'm the good one, ain't I?
Washed my hands of all my sins
I'm the good guy, ain't I?
If everyone were like me
Could that be the change I'd like to see
Ain't I good?
Ain't I right?
Did I try?

[Chorus]:
But if I cared
I'd give more than thoughts and prayers
Said the burden's more than yours to bare
But ego's on my side
Am I as good as I say if I tried?
Do we try?
We try
We try (Oh)
We try
Do we try?

[Verse 2]:
Hello Partner, the world's got problems
But you won't work hard enough to solve 'em
'Cause you hate Christians
And you hate Muslims
And you might kill over race and colour

If that happened to someone that I knew
Then I would've
Probably laughed at his race jokes, when I shouldn't
Guess there's blood on my hands after all
Blood on my hands after all

[Pre-Chorus]:
Say bow my head, said my prayers
I'm the good one, ain't I?
Oh washed my hands of all my sins
I'm the good guy, ain't I?
Oh if everyone were like me
Could there be the change I'd like to see
Ain't I good?
Ain't I right?
Did I try? (Yeah yeah)
[Chorus]:
But if I cared
Oh I'd give more than thoughts and prayers
I said the burden's more than yours to bear (Oh yeah)
Oh but ego's on my side
Am I as good as I say if I tried?
Oh do we try?
Do we try?
Do we try? (Oh)
Oh yeah
Do we try?
Sing, do we try?
Do we try?
Am I as good as I say, if I don't try?

[Outro]:
Oh bow my head, said my prayers (Oh-no-no-no-no-no)
(Washed my hands of all my sins)
Said I wash it off, I wash it off yeah
Oo-oo-yeah
Oh-oh
Ohhh
Dubie-doot-doot-doot-doot-uh
Oh-no-no-no
