In this track we are introduced to “The Seven”: color hungry goblins who seek to devour rainbows and steal saturation from the world.
[Verse 1]
Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet
These are the colors of the Seven
When a rainbow catches their eye, they lure and beguile it
These are the Desaturating Seven
[Chorus]
The Seven came a creepin'
The Seven came to play
The Seven filled the land with a cold dismay
Seven came slaking their wretched thirst
Desaturating colors 'til bellies burst
The Desaturating Seven
The Desaturating Seven
[Verse 2]
Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet
These are the Desaturating Seven
With the grandeur of the world, they abuse and defile it
These are the Desaturating Seven
They fill their mouths with greed and take way more then they need
Ha ho, the Desaturating Seven
They're going to prowl and prey 'til the world is dark and grey
Because they are the Desaturating Seven
[Chorus]
The Seven came a creepin'
The Seven came to play
The Seven filled the land with a cold dismay
Seven came slaking their wretched thirst
Desaturating colors 'til bellies burst
The Desaturating Seven
The Desaturating Seven
[Outro]
Oooh, Desaturating Seven
