Axis: Bold As Love 

Written by Jimi Hendrix



Anger, he smiles,

towering in shiny metallic purple armer

Queen Jealousy, envy waits behind him

Her fiery green gown sneers at the grassy ground



Blue are the life-giving waters taken for granted,

They quietly understand

Once happy turquoise armies lay opposite ready,

But wonder why the fight is on



But they're bold as love, just as bold as love

Yeah, they're bold as love

Just ask the axis



My red is so confident that he flashes trophies of horror,

and ribbons of euphoria

Orange is young and full of daring,

But very unsteady for the first go round

My yellow in this case is not so mellow

In fact I'm trying to say it's frigthened like me

And all these emotions of mine keep holding me from

Giving my life to a rainbow like you



I'm as bold as love, I'm as bold as love

Just as bold as love 

Just ask the axis
