[01:54.03]So many colors in the morning sun
[01:57.03]So many colors in the flower and

[02:20.58]And you won't come out 'til you get it right

[02:25.71]Well finally he got lonely
[02:29.04]Frightened thoughts filled his head

[02:35.58]And this is what he said.. and he said
[02:40.32]Flowers are red, green leaves are green
[02:48.12]There's no need to see flowers any other way
[02:51.81]Than the way they always have been seen
[02:55.38]Time went by like it always does
[03:13.05]And they moved to another town
[03:15.99]And the little boy went to another school
[03:19.23]And this is what he found
[03:22.14]The teacher there was smilin'
[03:24.03]She said...
[03:25.26]Painting should be fun
[03:27.78]And there are so many colors in a flower
[03:30.78]So let's use every one
[03:34.11]But that little boy painted flowers
[03:37.29]In neat rows of green and red
[03:40.65]And when the teacher asked him why
[03:43.89]This is what he said.. and he said
[03:48.84]Flowers are red, green leaves are green
[03:57.78]There's no need to see flowers any other way
[04:01.53]Than the way they always have been seen.
[04:06.06]But there still must be a way to have our children say . . .
[04:15.99]There are so many colors in the rainbow
[04:17.01]So many colors in the morning sun
[04:19.23]So many colors in the flower and
