Frank Sinatra - Bein’ 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 colourful like that

It's not easy bein' 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 is 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 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
