Is Ye that smart? Did he just show corporate America how prejudice they are. When he was putting down the Black Lives Matter movement, he never lost a sponsor. When he did it to the Jewish community, they all dropped him. It wasn't such a problem when he was attacking the black community but became a "drop him now" movement when he made statements about the Jewish community. Is he that smart? Well, I say so. One might say he is brilliant.
There is more written about this song in this Blog. It generally is about coming of age and realizing you're not living the life you want to. Dropping out and becoming who you want to be. The meaning of the song is only in the title. The rest of the song is good ole rock and roll lyrics. Pink means a young man or women. Diamond is referring to getting married. And red is realizing you're not living the way you want to live. the pink shines through the diamond.... GET IT?!!

we got a hundred thousand swords
some are hanging with the lord
better catch it while you can
got the blessing from the man
cause it's Pink Diamond Red
This song was inspired by my daughter. She had gotten a tattoo of her sisters and did not get one of her brother. So, I started this song that night. I was hurt myself, for leaving him out of the tattoo. The song vision was vivid. It entailed a young boy about 9 years old following his older sister being 13 or 14 who was with two of her friends. The young boy was 15 feet behind her walking with tears in his eyes. The love he had for his sister was big. He didn't understand why now after so many years she was some what leaving him or not given the attention she once had . She turns every now and then to lean over and talk to him. Letting him know where she was going. These are in the lyrics. A country town with quite roads and steps made of stone. The school being more of a one room school house. In my vision the effect on the boy is hard to explain. He was devastated. he could not wipe the tears away fast enough. It was at night the song came as a jam session and I was twirling around while the song was coming to me. I needed to extract it from all around me. That was the feeling I got. The song was slow to come. During the extraction I was on my butt on the ground in my room. When I was picked upped and thrown AGAINST THE WALL. The trouble was no one in the room. My feet left the floor. I slid down the wall and just laughed and chuckled for a bit. I know who it was...
Hay, what about me x2
We're going on down to Pickalowtown
going to watch a picture show, would you like to come along
you're looking down and I'm looking up
won't you put your loving arms around me
you're fooling around and I'm getting down
won't you put your loving arms around me
hay, what about me x2
we're going on down to Pickalowtown
going to the Appletree would you like to come along
have you forgotten the smile
have you lost our love
won't you put your loving arms around me
hay, what about me x2
we're going on down to Pickalowtown
going to see a waterfall, would you like to come along
throwing our love away, what about me x4
hay, what about me x2
we're going on down to Pickalowtown
going to the school yard, would you like to come along
do you no longer care will you no longer share
won't you put your loving arms around me
you're laughing loud and I'm crying now
won't you put your loving arms around me
hay, what about me x2
we're going on down to Pickalowtown
we're going for an ice cream, would you like to come along
I miss you more than ever before
won't you put your loving arms around me
please close your eyes and think of my smile
won't you put your loving arms around
she's got platinum hair
that cross eyed stare
hazel jewels
those big red lips
there so delish
let me dine on you
we are waiting for you
yes, waiting for you waiting for you to
die
die
die
I adore your stance
you're such a tramp
I'm crazy for you
washing close in the pool
you're the queen of x
with no regrets
we were waiting for you
yes, we are waiting for you
waiting for you to
die
die
die
After a big fight with my daughter Nicole, I wrote this song in 20 minutes on a Sunday after fighting with her. She was texting me so fast and furious that I couldn't understand the message she was saying. I was doing the same after I reviewed what I wrote to her. Polished it up some the next weekend
What's you say, what's you say x2
baby girl gone away
I thought she was here to stay
she packed it up and left today
what's you say what's you say x2
Is it all gone__________
I wish I could get back to dawn
so far away___________
she left the keys on the lawn
what's you say now what's you say x2
my baby girl gone away
she's taken a a holiday
over there in LA
got some friends with high pay
what's you say what's you say x2
tell me I'm wrong_________
I'm waking up lushes' hair
sorry to stare_________
your short mini got me dear
what's you say what's you say x2
baby girl gone away
It happened just the other day
she dressed in a pink thong
my favorite color on its own
what's you say what's you say
what's you say
