The Grass Is Green
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Oh, I once had something
Something that was so good
Better than the last thing I touched
Then turned right around on that something
Guess I figured I didn't like that much
Oh yeah, the grass is green
But can you tell me, can you feel it?
I just wanna feel it
Oh yeah, the grass is green
But I think I stained my jeans
And now everybody knows that I've been in it
I am a believer
But as I was standing in line
Somebody took my place
Yes, iim a believer
Nevermind what they say
I got so tired along the way
Oh yeah, the grass is green
But can you tell me, can you feel it?
I just wanna feel it
Oh yeah, the grass is green
But I think I stained my jeans
And now everybody knows that I've been in it
I've got a skeleton that's deeper than any closet
And a bomb that I will drop on it
But you opened up to me
'Till I could only see the beauty in your dishonesty
Oh yeah, the grass is green
But can you tell me, can you feel it?
You just wanna feel it
Oh yeah, the grass is green
But I think I stained my jeans
And now, baby, you can tell that I've been in it
Oh yeah, the grass is green
But it's not what it seems
'Cause when you think you want it, you just need it
Forget just what you need
The clock is ticking and this life is a train, man
I think you're on it
And it's what you wanted, and it's what you wanted
And it's what you needed, oh, it's what you needed
Oh, it's what you wanted, it's what you needed
Oh, it's what I needed and what you wanted
