This evening really came as some surprise
It showed me just how little faith
I think back when you couldn't criticize
You sure were glad to see my face

True colors, giving away your lies
True colors, seeing them in your eyes
True colors, giving away your lies
True colors, seeing them in your eyes, eyes

For you the tables turned full circle now
And all those people you call friends
See who defends you when you're down again
Don't count on money-spinners then

True colors, maybe you'll see them then
True colors, twisting the knife again
True colors, maybe you'll see them then
True colors, twisting the knife again

You did what you wanted to do
I lived to fight another day
I know that i want you to do
Just pack your bags and get away
