Bein` Green — текст песни (Sesame Street)

[Greetings! Kermit the Frog here, and today I`d like to tell you a little bit about the color green. Do you know what`s green? [cue music] Well I am for one thing. You see, frogs are green, and I`m a frog. And that means I`m green, you see?]

It`s not that easy bein` green
Having to spend each day the color of the leaves
When I think it could be nicer being 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 standing out like flashy sparkles in the water
Or stars in the sky

But green`s 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
