Blood Red in The Datsuns

Take, take me to market
Come on take me down.
To traditions and life's hand me downs
It's a sin, sir, when you half realise
You gave in sir, become what you despise.

So let's paint the town blood red, red tonight

Paint it red, it's a scarlet delight.
Paint the town blood red, red tonight
Paint it red, it's a scarlet, scarlet delight.

Grind the meat, sir, time to taste the sublime
It is sweet, sir but will turn to grime in time.
Roll the dice, if you please
It's the right of every man.
To compete, with sleaze
For someone to bear his brand so.

So let's paint the town blood red, red tonight

Paint it red, it's a scarlet delight.
Paint the town blood red, red tonight
Paint it red, it's a scarlet, scarlet delight.

Whatever happened you said
To all the things they promised you?
Whatever happened you said
To all the things they should have done?
Whatever happened you said
Whatever happened was beared?
So I'm leaving now, I'm leaving now
Let's go.

Go.

It's a sin, sir
When you half realise
You gave in sir
Become what you despise.

So let's paint the town blood red, red tonight

Paint it red, it's a scarlet delight.
Paint the town blood red, red tonight
Paint it red, it's a scarlet delight.

Whatever happened to digital communication?
All those empty promises.
They're still leaving me frustrated
Leaving me frustrated, why?
So I say goodbye.
