Color Blind 2
Green is the color of grass
Or so I've been told
Blue is the color of the sky
Yeah, yeah, I've heard that one before
And this
This shirt I wear today
Why, it's yellow
I already know
And the sun is yellow too
And this, this is new
I don't know what color it may be
Nor that or this or you
Don't ask me what color this is or that
This game is getting old and I'm tired of playing
So what?
I don't know what color your hair is or her eyes or his shirt
Do you think I care?
I'm exhausted you guys
Please give me a break, at least for today
Stop taunting me and stop calling me names
How do you think I feel not getting to see
to see the things you all get to see
For one day I would love to switch eyes with you
Then you would understand
Because you don't know what it's like to have to memorize
Oh, how I memorize each word to a different color
A color I do not know
What is color except for a word?
A big useless word
Another thing I have to grow up memorizing
This is blue...
This is green....
This here is brown....
And this is red...
