Green Grass

Hey

How's your life?

Yeah, mine's alright

Oh, I'm doing fine

(It's just life, honey)

Well, hey

I'm having a bad day

So tell me it's okay

Sometimes it's just that way

My mama said 'the grass is always greener where you water it

Go and fill your diet up with greens, and reds, and oranges

Coffee goes cold, so you better drink all of it

Go and live your life, 'cause you know you were born for it'

You are not an image or a product or commodity

You aren't worth more because you like to eat broccoli

You're made up of your thoughts, habits, hopes, fears

And honestly, you're floating through space on a rock

Ain't that crazy?

So, go and live your life

What could go wrong?

Hey

So I fell on my face when I was walking through town earlier today

But then I stayed down, laying on the ground

'Cause everyone looks so happy when they're upside-down

And, it got me wondering, what is this all about

We're just kids in the playground when the Sun goes out, but

Am I instructions? What am I here to do?

An existential crisis at twenty-two

My mama said 'the grass is always greener where you wanna be

You got to learn to love the ground you're standing on already

And coffee goes cold, but be grateful that there's any

Go and live your life, 'cause you've always been ready'

You are not an image or a product or commodity

You aren't worth more because you like to eat broccoli

You're made up of your thoughts, habits, hopes, fears

And honestly, you're floating through space on a rock

Ain't that crazy?

Oh the grass will surely be greener

But why do we even need that goal?

For purple, pink, or even turquoise

Yellow, you're a dreamer

Oh, I remember, what my mama said

She knew just what I needed

She said 'the grass is always greener where you water it

Go and fill your diet up with greens, and reds, and oranges

Coffee goes cold, that's why you better drink all of it, honey

Go drink it up'

'Cause, honey

You ain't an an image or a product or commodity

You aren't worth more because you like to eat broccoli

You're made up of your thoughts, habits, hopes, fears

And honestly, you're floating through space on a rock

Ain't that crazy?

(The grass is greener where you wanna be)

(It's just life, honey)

(The grass is greener where you wanna be)

(I love you, mama)

(It's just life, honey)
