It Could Have Been Yellow

It would have been blue
But now it's green 
All the red people want 
Orange lovers 
And the orange people
Seek purple lovers 
Sunny days never 
Ever make them happy 
And they play in the mud
Like pigs do
But yellow for me
Is a dandy color 
Much like the sunflowers 
That dance with the blue breeze
And like the bees that fly home 
In the evening light of a dying sun 
I could have been bronze 
But now it is silver
