Nur Ein XIV- R3- Color Me_____- Sampled Vocal Hook

Post by glennny »

Color Me Up

by Faster Jackalope
Lead Vocals- Truth
Music & Production- glennny
Lyrics by- Jay & glennny
Sampled Vocals: Jenny Lewis, Norah Jones, St. Vincent, Solange


Verse1 with Jenny Lewis as Lady Luck (District Sleeps Alone)
Hello there Lady Luck
From which circle were you sent?

Lady Luck:
I am a visitor here
I am not permanent


I’m nearly killed, but most alive
I have the skill, believe my own lies

Pre-Chorus 1
Let me get away with this
Not all the luck but just a kiss

Chorus
Color me up dealer
I want it all in play
I’m chasing down a dragon
It might all go away

Verse 2 with Norah Jones as Miss Giving (Day Breaks)
Miss Giving, take your time!
Who’s the master that you serve?

Miss Giving:
Time follows you around
Ticking slowly at your nerves

I think I’ve cracked the system
I can stay ahead of the curve

Pre-Chorus 2
You’re giving me such good cards now
I can’t afford to have a doubt

Chorus -
Color me up dealer
I want it all in play
I’m chasing down a dragon
It might all go away

Bridge with St. Vincent as Miss Anne Thrope (New York)
You should go back home to New York
I’m winning back all that I owe

Miss Anne Thrope:
New York isn't New York without you, Love

Pre-Chorus 3
Miss Anne Thorpe:
So far in a few blocks To be so low

Chorus -
Color me up dealer
I want it all in play
I’m chasing down a dragon
It might all go away

Coda with Solange as Miss Fortune (Cranes in the Sky)

Miss Fortune:
Away, away, away, away….

"Color Me" - Third Cat

(vocal samples from The Beatles - "Because" - the acapella version from Anthology 3 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmZw8BuqU10)

when you're feeling down
you can't stand me acting like a clown
and you need me to be
just like the man you wish to see

you can color me blue
if you want me to
look as sad as you
because you're the only girl in the world

everyone is strange
like the seasons I always change
when we pretend it's real
life is so easy to feel

you can color me pink
if you truly think
we should be in sync
because you're the only girl in the world

i will dig your eyeball out with a broken clove
and fry it up in butter on my old wood stove

you can color me white
i'll reflect your light
together we'll face the night
because you're the only girl in the world

Color Me Sunday
by the Sunday Colors

Featuring the Commodores
Lionel - If you're listening to this, I am so sorry



Last night I had a dream that I was in your arms and things were okay
I’d finally found the strength to fly those 4,000 miles one-way
You flashed your half-moon smile when I stepped off the plane
And in your hands and in your eyes you held a sign to realize you’d color me Sunday

The dream didn’t last and we didn’t last, I am sorry to say
I opened up my eyes and it was just another failed attempt to keep the angry voices at bay
The good times always fade and clear skies turn to grey
Dark times lurking just around the corner, so color me Sunday

Time is here to stay
Nothing I can do

That’s why I’m easy
I’m easy like Sunday morning
That’s why I’m easy
I’m easy like Sunday morning


There’s nothing I can do to mend my heart anew and free myself of this weight
Everywhere I go, from the tavern to the cornerstore, I see your face
I want to feel the color, but what a price to pay
Now I’ve given up on tomorrow, so color me Sunday

Time is here to stay

Color Me In - Frankie Big Face
(featuring Bill Withers from "Ain't No Sunshine")

I don’t know if you can see me
I don’t know if I’m clear
I don’t know if my conscience caught your eye

I don’t know if I’m conceding
I don’t know if I care
I don’t know if the mirror always lies

Are you wearing a new disguise?
I don’t know

CHORUS:
But I know
What I feel
You can color me in and paint me over
Color me in and then again

Cause I know
And I feel
If you color me in I’ll never stray
Color me in

I don’t know if there’s a reason
I don’t know if there’s a way
I don’t know if anyone ever stands a chance

I don’t know if I’m grieving
I don’t know if I’ve just changed
I don’t know if I just lost my confidence

Are you just beyond the evidence?
I don’t know

CHORUS

I know I ought to leave the young thing alone

Color Me In - Vom Vorton (Ohne Ruhm)
Feat. The Dells, from the song "I Can Sing a Rainbow / Love is Blue".

Another day at the office
Another humdrum day of life
Another "how are your kids, Susan?"
Another "Richard, how's the wife?"
And the documents are stacking up
Though I'm knocking them down
And the colour in my face
Fills the creases in my frown

I am black and white
But you make me feel alright
You colour me in

One more day on the road
One more week away from home
And each time I pass a mirror
I look a bit more monochrome
One more day of meetings
And they say I’m looking fine
But I feel the truth inside me
I am barely an outline

I am shades of grey
But you make me feel okay
You colour me in

I am monochrome
Baby til I get home
And you colour me in

the sample comes from my own song, old kid, you can find it on my EP here: https://rainrain.bandcamp.com/track/old-kid-3

color me out

(i missed out)
but it’s okay cause i’ve been
catching up
(i missed out)
things are better than they were
things are better

(i missed out)
but it’s okay, although you’re,
losing track
(i missed out)
i wonder what you picture
when you think of me

cause it’s so inconvenient
you pretend that nothing’s changed
you just color me out, like
i’m not a girl, just weird and strained
you haven’t made the difference
in these two years, you think that i’m the same
yeah, like i’m the same

(i missed out)
but it’s okay cause i’ve been
cheering up
(i missed out)
it took a while, but i got there
it took a while

(i missed out)
but it’s okay, i think you
have my back
(i missed out)
i just wonder if you
know your oldest daughter

cause it’s so inconvenient
you pretend that nothing’s changed
you just color me out, like
i’m not a girl, just weird and strained
you haven’t made the difference
in these two years, you think that i’m the same
yeah, like i’m the same

i feel invisible
you don’t call me what i want
am i so hard to deal with?
then color me out

yeah, i’ve not been quiet
i get told that i’m too loud
then why are things the same?
just color me out

i’m not sad, i’m just older
i’m not sad, now i’m older
but you know, you’ve got a new kid?
you know, you got a new kid

i’m not sad, i’m just older
i’m not sad, now i’m older
you have to know, you’ve got a new kid
you gotta know, you’ve got a new kid

i’m not sad, i’m just older
i’m not sad, now i’m older
but you know, you got a new kid?
you know, you’ve got a new kid

not sad, i’m just older
i’m not sad, now i’m older

Color Me Lonely by Vowl Sounds
Main sample is from “Madonna of the Wasps” by Robyn Hitchcock
Verse backing vocals from “I Wanna Sex You Up” by Color Me Badd
Sneaky cameo from “Enjoy the Silence” by Depeche Mode
Chorus backing vocals from the first ever Vowl Sounds song, ”Et in Arcadia Ego”
Bird vocals from multiple whippoorwills


Note: These lyrics tell the story of our Diss Subject from the previous round, as she starts to worry about the renewed friendship between her Ouija-obsessed husband and his old flame...

My true love, in the first hours of the dawn,
Rolls over to check his telephone
And in bed, in the last minutes before sleep
He's texting as I slip off into my dreams

Old friends are nothing to worry about
But I feel like I'm fading slowly out of sight
His best friend's so witty and even I can see
that he'd be better off with someone cleverer than me

And I ask myself:
(Is this love? Is this love?)

Color me white as the falling snow
Color me dark as the churning sea
Color me lonely as the whippoorwill calling endlessly

What am I but a dream in the shape of a wife?
What he always wanted to keep him warm at night
Sweet comfort to sip at that stays stable on the shelf
His head lies on my breast while his mind lies somewhere else

And I ask myself…

Color me blue as a bowerbird's eye
Color me bright as a firefly
Color me lonely as the whippoorwill with her haunted cry
Color me red as the velvet rose
Color me silver as the moonlit sea
Color me anything that brings your far-off gaze to fall back on me

And Robyn sings into my headphones
Is this love?
Is this love?
Is this love?
Is this love?

All bonny, bonny sang the morning thrush
From where she sat perched in yonder bramble bush
My love, sit by and listen to her sing:
"I never wanted much; all I ever wanted was him"

Color me black as the dead of night
Color me yellow as the candlelight
Color me lonely as the whippoorwill in her yearning flight
Color me gold as the morning sun
Color me green as the willow trees
Color me anything that brings your far-off gaze to fall back on me

And Robyn sings into my headphones
Is this love?
Is this love?
Is this love?
Is this love?
Is this love?
Is this love?

Sample from Patricia Edwards Been Missin' You

When you’re tired, weary, or dim
I light myself up
So you let me in

And when you’re so lonely that anyone will do
Color me there
Just to spend time with you

And when you don’t want to see me anymore
I’m invisible
Just like before

I’m whatever you want me to be
I’m canvas, baby
Paint on me

------

And what drives me back to you, baby
Are all the different kinds of blue you make me
You control me with your brush
Your touch
Every stroke,
Caress, and thrust

------

When you’ve a vacancy in your bed
I’ll be your desire
And turn into red

And when you’re looking for riches or gold
I do what it takes
I’ll mortgage my soul

When you’re looking for someone to hit
Color me purple
I promise to handle it

I’m whatever you want at a whim
I’m blank for you

Color me in
------

And what drives me back to you, baby
Are all the different kinds of blue you make me
You control me with your brush
Your touch
Every stroke,
Caress, and thrust

Color me

Color Me By Numbers
[Featuring a sample from Primitive Radio Gods - Standing Outside a Broken Phone Booth With Money in My Hand]

Color me by numbers
There's a plan for where you fill things in
Color me by numbers
For the same result again and again

You can use a cookie cutter
to retain the shape
And if I was more like you
I wouldn't hesistate
to see that through
but I'm not you
Thank God for that, too
'cause if I was
I know what I'd want to do

C-H-A-N-G-E

RIDE THE WAVES AND DON'T ASK WHERE THEY GO
Just change it up
RIDE THE WAVES AND DON'T ASK WHERE THEY GO
Shouldn't be that tough
RIDE THE WAVES AND DON'T ASK WHERE THEY GO
Enough's enough
Color me by numbers, if that's where you're stuck

Color Me _____
Ujn Hunter & Friends

Color me however you see me
Color me anyway you please

Can't control how other people see you
Can't control what other people do

So color me anyway you see me
Color me whatever way you please

Look at me before you choose your point of view
Look at me before you decide what to do

Just be sure to color me when you can truly see
For your colors will always be a part of me

Before you close your eyes
And with an open mind
You can choose to design
The way others see you

Fill in the gaps you will complete me
Color me in you'll find me right here waiting

Be sure to color me when you can truly see
So your colors can reflect the best of me

Color Me Red

Color me red
That’s just what she said
As she paints her lips
And sits at the edge of a bed

The devil fills up
From a golden cup
And he knows just what
Poor soul’s had enough

Color her blue
That’s what he’ll do
Deep in his eyes, he tries
getting close to her hue

Another cold night
Try as she might
Loneliness comes
and blows out the pilot light

Mandibles - Color Me In

(Bob Ross)
“This is your world”

Daylight fades
Into blacks and grays
And our colorful exchanges
Yellow on the pages
I’m unmade
In a cloudy haze
And I don’t paint my own nature
With such nomenclature

But if you just color me in
This story can begin
Any shade will do
Any tint or hue
You could stay inside my lines
Or find something undefined
With a hint of blue
I give my brush to you

Spectrum-seared
In my younger years
I have seen vermillion skylight
Chased by sapphire twilight
You see me here
Colorless and clear
And you want, within your view
To see my colors true

But if you just color me in...

If I’m being honest with what I see
Your eyes cannot perceive my frequency
But I’ll let you see me as you do
So I can spend some time with you

If you just color me in...

(Bob Ross)
“On this canvas, you’re the creator
Anything you want, you can build here
I think it’s time we had some fun
Sparkle in the sun
Let’s make a big decision
Beautiful little things will happen
Just add more blue
You’d be surprised what you can do

Colour Me Blind
by Max Bombast
vocal sample: Amazing Grace - Judy Collins

Amazing grace
How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I'm found
Was blind but now I see


Colour me blind for thinking it's fine
Ignoring the smoke and hoping this madness would pass us in time
While I was asleep an evil was creeping up on us and
Where else could it hide but in plain sight
Time to decide will you stand up and fight
Cause there's no way I am closing my eyes again

We've got one shot so make it stick
You can colour me surprised if we get out of this
You come at the king and you best not miss

Amazing grace
How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I'm found
Was blind but now I see


Colour me deaf for while it was spreading
I had my head in the sand and I didn't hear all of the signs
Thought it was a joke and then I awoke to
"Very fine people are on every side"
Now is your chance!
Take action at last, please, while you still can
Because some day soon you cannot go back again

We've got one shot so make it stick
You can colour me surprised if we get out of this
You come at the king and you best not miss

Amazing grace
How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I'm found
Was blind but now I see

Nick Soma - Color Me Gone

The samples I used can be found here: https://youtu.be/3YcsB0iFUKA

I remember still
Though it's slowly fading now
Sitting in the park
In awkward silence
If I had confessed
My love to you that day,
You would have laughed, I bet
You sent me on a ride
Of many ups and downs
A rollercoaster of emotions
Good and bad
And how I wished I'd never met you
And how I loved you still
You're not even aware of that

Gone
This candle has guttered out
And I won't shed any more tears

You were there one time
Just to disappear
Now I see no reason
In holding you dear
Anymore
Goodbye and so long
Color me gone, color me gone
I won't be around
Color me gone

At times you were so nice
Made me feel safe and loved
Then made me feel so lonely
Like I was an alien
I had fallen for the light
Glowing in your sky blue eyes
You were good at making me sad

Gone
This candle has guttered out
And I won't shed any more tears

You were there one time
Just to disappear
I gave my best trying
To keep you near
All in vain
Goodbye and so long
Color me gone, color me gone
I won't be around
Color me gone.

forever envious of people with tattoos
i bet a bundle on a hoss and didn't lose
i took a marker mapped 'em right out on my bod
don't wanna hold 'em up describin' what i want
but it's
cobra commander wearin' peter criss' paint on my back
a tribal cheeseburger chestpiece, whopper/mac
take all the scales and modes along my inner arm
i'll get it all at once, for rilla, what's the harm?

i don't want to wait
color me quickly, neck down, wrist in, completely
i don't want to wait
color me quickly, i've gotta drive to lodi in the morning

a team of minor leaguers volunteered to carve
i gave 'em half an afternoon to lay the art
and swallowed half an ibuprofen for the pain
i put 'em up to this i really can't complain about it
ten, eleven irons scratchin' in the flash
i ordered pizza and i paid 'em all in cash
it's not the tightest but i'm solid with the ink
i wonder what the congregation's gonna think tomorrow

i don't want to wait
color me quickly, left to the top, right to bottom
i don't want to wait
color me quickly, a batch of fetch 'toos, i wan't em

Verse
We don’t see the world
The way that others do
They have clear delineation
We have super saturation
And you knew I’d get you
Right from when I met you
I said my favorite number
Is the color blue

PreChorus - sampled from CHVRCHES - Clearest Blue
Clearest blue
Clearest blue

Chorus
When you say my name
blue color floating in space
When you just say my name
You color me in a whole new way

Verse
When you flash a smile
You speak to me with light
Your words’ reverberation
Give me a strange sensation
And I knew I’d love you
Right from when I met you
You said your favorite number
Is the color blue

PreChorus - sampled from CHVRCHES - Clearest Blue
Clearest blue
Clearest blue

Chorus
When you say my name

When you just say my name
You color me in a whole new way

Solo

Chorus
When you say my name

Connected colors and shapes
When you say my name

Inflatable Vegetables COLOR ME ___ NE XIV.3 (Sampled Vocal Hook)

You sat by me in first grade art - wooden tables, plastic chairs
Dry glue on our fingers, stink of cheap tempera paint
I was the new kid, with superpowers - I could bend Crayola crayons
Teacher gave us manila paper - Draw a picture of your best friend

Color me with crooked crayons
I’ll draw you beige with sky blue dreams
We’re both reaching for the future
With badly rendered hands
Time can tear the closest friends
Distance that no glue can mend
I guess that’s how the crayon bends
Color me with crooked crayons

In middle school your father bought you a Strat and Peavey amp
You formed a cover band and played some gigs at Custer Park
I saved allowance, bought a Les Paul copy - Jammed with neighbor kids in my garage
Tho we wandered different ways - I still remember small kid days

Color me with crooked crayons

I googled you when I thought of you today
It’s been such a long time
I see you’re married
And your father died
But not much more than that
How far did you chase your dreams
The ones we had in our early teens
I saved the picture I drew in first grade
You probably threw yours away

Mandibles - shadow - Color Me In

(Bob Ross)
“This is your world”

Daylight fades
Into blacks and grays
And our colorful exchanges
Yellow on the pages
I’m unmade
In a cloudy haze
And I don’t paint my own nature
With such nomenclature

But if you just color me in
This story can begin
Any shade will do
Any tint or hue
You could stay inside my lines
Or find something undefined
With a hint of blue
I give my brush to you

Spectrum-seared
In my younger years
I have seen vermillion skylight
Chased by sapphire twilight
You see me here
Colorless and clear
And you want, within your view
To see my colors true

But if you just color me in...

If I’m being honest with what I see
Your eyes cannot perceive my frequency
But I’ll let you see me as you do
So I can spend some time with you

If you just color me in...

(Bob Ross)
“On this canvas, you’re the creator
Anything you want, you can build here
I think it’s time we had some fun
Sparkle in the sun
Let’s make a big decision
Beautiful little things will happen
Just add more blue
You’d be surprised what you can do

Color Me Dead by Rachael Layne
Sample: Russell Streiner as Johnny in "Night of the Living Dead"

Welcome to the dead end
We think we'll like you here
You're just in time
Now let's begin

You look a little frightened
Just relax
It only hurts for a minute
Haha ...5 or 6 max

Haven't been fed
And it's all in your head
Color Me Dead

And you will run
But you will not succeed
And when you run
It makes it fun for me

Haven't been fed
And it's all in your head
Color Me Dead

Do you feel betrayed?
Do you feel misled? (Awe.)
You really should have known
i AM the living dead

You gave it all you had
There's nothing you can say
You have a lot of heart
I love a man with brains.

Haven't been fed
And it's all in your head
Color Me Dead
Music is love in search of a word...
