GREEN (Edie Brickell)
---------------------

                             
We like to spy on the neighbors
                        
They look so happy together
                           
Funny, the power of strangers
                              
Sometimes I wonder if they got it better

           
Green,         have you seen
           
Green

Check out the view from the rooftop
They've got a horse and a big trampoline
Running and jumping 'til they drop
Down on the ground and they're rolling around in

Green, have you seen
Green, have you seen

          
Grass     so green
          
Grass     so green

                  
Oh I----I'd like to be like that
                    
I----I'd like to be like that
                             
I----I'd like to be moving on    a lawn so

I want to laugh the way they laugh
See all my blues get back up in the sky
If only we had what they had
We'd never worry and we'd never cry for

Green, have you seen
Green, have you seen

Grass so green
Grass so green

Oh I----I'd like to be like that
I----I'd like to be like that
I----I'd like to be moving on a lawn so
