Erykah Badu - Today lyrics

Please oh please, wear blue and green
So flowers can bloom and birds can sing
Today

Hang out with your friends cool breezing sun
And I'ma join y'all so we can all have fun
Today

And blow me a kiss and dry my clothes
While I run through the sheets
Like I'm 5 years old today
You got the natural wood grain
With the big ol' 'fro
Your fresh 15's got me ridin' low today

Smile today smile today
Smile today smile
Today

See you got this new man
Who treats you wrong
But, I'ma do you good before
You're used and gone today

And if you feelin' kinda grey i understand
Emotions sway but I'm still your friend
Today

You got bugs in your house
That you let run free
But, if they don't bug you
Then they don't bug me today

See, I respect you and you respect me back
So I'ma make sure I put my trash in the sack
Today

Smile today smile today
(feel good today)

In orange and brown you look so young
So let's spend the night 'n
Tell purple to come today

And I'ma sing you a song so play that track
With the crickets in the
Back that so abstract today

And as I take a deep breath i close my eyes
I say a little prayer for the sun to rise
Today (tomorrow)

And I see in the morning all bright and fresh
And I'll be the girl in the yellow dress
New day, new day

Smile today smile today
