The Lyrics
I paint on yellow hue,
a color prime.
I’m movin’ next to the hue blue…
’fore it’s dryin’,
some green I’m eyein’.
Into red I daub it,
the brush…swirl it ’round
with the blue and watch it
become something else—purple abounds.
Then mix the yellow hue
with red: I find
one more hue
that’s close to
what you’d chew--
that’s if you
were down south…
that tasty fare
that deliciously
fills up your mouth…
pure sweetness!
I mean that swellish fruit
that ain’t a lime.
a color prime.
I’m movin’ next to the hue blue…
’fore it’s dryin’,
some green I’m eyein’.
Into red I daub it,
the brush…swirl it ’round
with the blue and watch it
become something else—purple abounds.
Then mix the yellow hue
with red: I find
one more hue
that’s close to
what you’d chew--
that’s if you
were down south…
that tasty fare
that deliciously
fills up your mouth…
pure sweetness!
I mean that swellish fruit
that ain’t a lime.
