Lyrics:
Share The Red [Version (a)]:

Getting on the floor
Everything and more
A fabulous start
There's no reason
To get arrested or doomed
40 with a kid
Living on the grid
My resume speaks Germanic wheels
You want it, you got it
The lockjaw with animus on it
Have you no ears?
Have you no eyes?
You've got no idea
Of how to survive
Have you no tears?
Have you no heart?
You've got no idea
What sets you apart
And still you're winning

Do not save the date
It disintegrates
The rocks in my grain
The fabulous pain
Just beginning to shine
I can see the truth
Is wasted on the youth
The parental magic
Is fading away for now
I'll be watching all the time
I'll be watching all the time
I'll be watching all the time
Have you no ears?
Have you no eyes?
You've got no idea
Of how to survive
Have you no tears?
Have you no heart?
You've got no idea
What sets you apart
You've got no idea
What sets you a-
You've got no idea
What sets you
You have no idea
What sets you apart
And still you're winning
 
The Song:

In 2010 or so, Beck called up Stephen Malkmus and offered his services as a producer. Malkmus and his band, The Jicks, took him up on the offer and Beck produced their album, Mirror Traffic. Beck does not perform on the album, he is merely the producer.

"Share The Red" is the tenth track from the album.
