It's not that easy being green
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves
When I think it could be much nicer being red or yellow
Or gold or something much more colorful like that
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 on the water
Or stars in the sky
But green is the color of spring
It 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'm green, it'll do fine
It's beautiful and I think it's what I want to be
