It's not that easy bein' green;
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves
When I think it could be nicer being red, or
yellow or gold-
or something much more colorful like that
It's not easy bein' green
It seems you blend in with so many other
ordinary things
And people tend to pass you over 'cause you're
not standing out like flashy sparkles in the water-
or stars in the sky
But green's the color of Spring
And green can be cool and friendly-like
And green can be big like an ocean, or important
like a mountain, or tall like a tree
When green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why, but why wonder why?
Wonder, I am green and it'll do fine,
it's beautiful!
And I think it's what I want to be
