It's not easy bein' green Havin' to spend each day the color of the leaves When I think it would 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 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, Why wonder, why wonder I am green and it'll do fine I think it's what I want to be When green is all there is to be It could make you wonder why, Why wonder, why... I am green and it'll do fine I am green, I am green And it's beautiful, it's what I want to be
