Just Three Colors
[Sung]
Just three colors
Red and yellow and blue
Enough to make a rainbow for me and for you
Just three colors mix them up and see
All of the pretty colors they can be
Red and yellow make orange
Yellow and blue make green
Blue and red make purple
Fit for a royal queen
Just three colors how they mix and glow
Making every pretty color that we know
[Spoken]
Big Bird: Hey Oscar isn't it great?
Yellow and blue together make green and red and blue make purple! Isn't it pretty?
Oscar: Well, I think it's ugly. But then, I Iove ugly!
Big Bird: And it works with crayons and paints, too!
[Spoken]
Just three colors
Red and yellow and blue
See them mix and see the pretty rainbows shine through
Three different colors
How they shine to say
Each adds something to the other in a very beautiful way!
[Spoken]
Oscar: That was beautiful
But then, I hate beautiful!
