Karma Chameleon Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There's a loving in your eyes all the way
If I listened to your lies, would you say
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm a man without conviction
I'm a man who doesn't know?
How to sell a contradiction
You come and go, you come and go
[Chorus]
Karma karma karma karma karma chameleon
You come and go, you come and go
Loving would be easy if your colors were like my dreams
Red gold and green, red gold and green
[Verse 2]
Didn't hear your wicked words every day
And you used to be so sweet, I heard you say
[Pre-Chorus]
That my love was an addiction
When we cling, our love is strong
When you go, you're gone forever
You string along, you string along
[Chorus]
Karma karma karma karma karma chameleon
You come and go, you come and go
Loving would be easy if your colors were like my dreams
Red gold and green, red gold and green
[Bridge]
Every day is like survival
You're my lover, not my rival
Every day is like survival
You're my lover, not my rival
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm a man (a man) without conviction
I'm a man (a man) who doesn't know
How to sell (to sell) a contradiction
You come and go, you come and go
[Outro]
Karma karma karma karma karma chameleon
You come and go, you come and go
Loving would be easy if your colors were like my dreams
Red gold and green, red gold and green
Karma karma karma karma karma chameleon
You come and go, you come and go
Loving would be easy if your colors were like my dreams
Red gold and green, red gold and green
Karma karma karma karma karma chameleon
You come and go, you come and go
Loving would be easy if your colors were like my dreams
Red gold and green, red gold and green
Karma karma karma karma karma chameleon

Many people they have forgotten or underrated him but he was a very brilliant talent. And this song is fantastic, Great Boy George

[@nazmaquader8050]

In his prime he was a Global Star like Grace Jones, Madonna, Adam Ant and even a bit close to Michael Jackson.

My favorite song

[@davidreynolds4684]

Ive run sound for countless famous groups and those on their way to being famous. I think it would have been a joy to sit at the board for these guys once they found their groove. I doubt anything would require adjusting. Ive got a feeling sound check would suck though. Without a doubt the fastest smoothest and easiest sound check ive ever been a part of was Vince Gill. The man was un freaking believeable. Im not exaggerating when i say the sound check all mics amps and instruments by vince alone done in under 5 mins. Set the board and never touched anything but lighting until the show was over. Perfect pitch. Perfect constant vocal levels. Ive never had anyone come close. I think it was at six flags in arlington at the amphitheater .
