Mr. Blue
Heartache in Hues: Decoding Mr. Blue's Melancholic Tale
Lyrics
(I'm Mr Blue)
I identify as Mr. Blue.
I'm Mr Blue
Reiteration of identifying as Mr. Blue.
When you say you love me
When you claim affection for me,
Then prove it by going out on the sly
Show it by engaging in secretive actions.
Proving your love is untrue
Proving your love to be false.
Call me Mr Blue
Referencing oneself as Mr. Blue again.
I'm Mr Blue
Restating self-identification as Mr. Blue.
When you say you love me
When you express affection towards me,
Then turn around, head for the lights of town
Immediately turn away and head towards the city lights,
Proving to through and through
Ultimately proving your disloyalty thoroughly.
Call Me Mr Blue
Self-reference as Mr. Blue.
I stay at home at night
I remain indoors during the evening,
Wait for the phone at night
Awaiting a phone call,
But you won't come
Yet you never arrive,
And I won't hurt my pride
I choose not to damage my self-respect.
(Call me Mr)
Expression to be called Mr.
I won't tell you
I won't inform you,
When you paint the town
When you engage in revelry,
A bright red and turn it upside down
Turning the town exuberantly wild,
I've painted it too
I've also indulged in this,
But I'm painting it blue
Yet I'm experiencing melancholy.
I stay at home at night
I persist at home in the night,
Wait for the phone each night
Anticipating a call,
But you won't come
Which you never make,
And I won't hurt my pride
Preserving my self-esteem.
(Call me Mr)
Request to be called Mr.
I won't tell you
I won't disclose to you,
When you paint the town
When you're out celebrating,
A bright red and turn it upside down
Creating uproar in the town,
I've painted it too
I've partaken in such activities,
But I'm painting it blue
Yet I'm enveloped in sadness.
Call me Mr Blue
Insistence to be referred to as Mr. Blue.
Call me Mr Blue
Repetition of request to be called Mr. Blue.
I'm Mr Blue
Final affirmation of being Mr. Blue.
Call me Mr Blue
Request to be addressed as Mr. Blue.
