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 pass 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 
 [bad word]  

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
