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 colourful like that
It's not 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 standin' out like flashy sparkles on the water
Or stars in the sky
But green's the colour 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
But why wonder, why wonder?
I'm green, and it'll do fine
And it's beautiful
And I think it's what I want to be
