shirley horn - green (it's not easy being green) lyrics
it’s not that easy bein’ green
having to spend each day the color of the leaves
when i think it could be nicer bein’ 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 p-ss you over ’cause you’re
not standin’ out like flashy sparkles on the water
or stars in the sky
but green is 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
instrumental
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
