Underneath The Colours Lyrics
No division in the ranks
The lines are long and proud
No question on their lips
But there will always be doubt
Like a chinese painting
All red with it's message
A flag high in the sky
Twists and turns it's language
Underneath the colours red-blue-white
Catch a glimpse of others
From the corner of your eye
With the rise and fall of
The conductor's blind-hand
I play Russian roulette
I'm an angry young man
The lines are long and proud
No question on their lips
But there will always be doubt
All red with it's message
A flag high in the sky
Twists and turns it's language
Catch a glimpse of others
From the corner of your eye
The conductor's blind-hand
I play Russian roulette
I'm an angry young man
The simplicity of this tune, and the lyrics, which I'm sure many of us can identify with ( I was myself an Angry Young Man) are early examples of the goodness that INXS would grow into as time went on.
