Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's not that easy being 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
[Verse 2]
It's not that easy being 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 the stars in the sky
[Verse 3]
But green is the color of Spring
And green can be so cool and friendly-like
And green can be big like a mountain
Or important like a river
Or tall like a tree, like a tree, like a tree
[Verse 4]
When green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why, but why wonder why?
I am green and I'll do fine, and it's beautiful
And I think it's what I want to be
[Verse 5]
Green is the color of Spring
And green can be so cool and friendly-like
And green can be big like a mountain
Or important like a river
Or tall like a tree, yeah
[Verse 6]
When green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why, but why wonder why?
Why wonder?
I am green and it'll do fine, and it's beautiful
And it's what I want to be
