Blood is red but some got blue
These circumstances put the mark on you
Some get lucky, some will not
These circumstances really mean a lot
Some will rule while others serve
Some people get what they really don't deserve
Strokes of luck and happenstance
We roll the dice in the game of chance
Rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief
You scratch them all and what is undеrneath?
It's in the blood, deep in the vеins, it's in the blood
It's in the blood, deep in the veins, it's in the blood
What denotes the humankind?
Well nothing easy springs to mind
Powerful men and gentlefolk
Some are very special, some are a joke
He is black but she is blue, they're green with envy for your brand new shoes
Everybody wants your jimmy choos
We pity the man with the bare feet blues
Princes, paupers, liars and cheats
You scratch them all and what is underneath?
It's in the blood, deep in the veins, it's in the blood
It's in the blood, deep in the veins, it's in the blood
Men may dream to talk with kings
They can't believe it when they're kissing the ring
People rise from low to high
They climb the mountain, touch the sky
Love can be so colour blind
A careful blending makes a perfect wine
Shades of ivory and carib blue
These combinations make a magic brew
We don't know what's right or wrong
We try and try until we make it strong
Nobody knows what's around that bend
Maybe the treasure at the rainbow's end
Dreamers, schemers, bitter and sweet
You scratch them all and what is underneath?
It's in the blood, deep in the veins, it's in the blood
It's in the blood, deep in the veins, it's in the blood
It's in the blood, deep in the veins, it's in the blood
It's in the blood, deep in the veins, it's in the blood
These circumstances put the mark on you
Some get lucky, some will not
These circumstances really mean a lot
Some will rule while others serve
Some people get what they really don't deserve
Strokes of luck and happenstance
We roll the dice in the game of chance
Rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief
You scratch them all and what is undеrneath?
It's in the blood, deep in the vеins, it's in the blood
It's in the blood, deep in the veins, it's in the blood
