It’s Not Easy Being Green (From ”The Muppet Show”)

[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
It's not that 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 standing out
Like flashy sparkles in the water
Or stars in the sky

[Bridge]
But green is the color of spring
And green can be so cool and friendlylike
And green can be big like a mountain
Or important like a river
Or tall like a tree
Like a tree, like a tree

[Verse 3]
When green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why
But, why wonder? Why?
I am green and I'll do fine
And it's beautiful, and I think it's what I want to be

[Bridge]
But green is the color of spring
And green can be so cool and friendlylike
And green can be big like a mountain
Or important like a river
Or tall like a tree

[Verse 4]
When green is all there is to be
It could make you wonder why
But, why wonder? Why? Why wonder?
I am green and it'll do fine
And it's beautiful, and it's what I want to be
