Two boys, they lived In the garden of the world One day they were playin' Realized they looked alike So to avoid confusion Decided to do something new The first, painted green The other all in yellow They transformed their names With colours they had chosen Played forgettin' all Proud of their strange and odd change. People admired them For joy, they created Green and yellow happy Rainbow, was their friend
Forgettin' that their skin Took their colours more an' more. Their time, flew away But colours remained When children admired But grown-ups refused So they swept their friendship Run away from different roads. The first was rich The other reverse Green bought other skins He became part of others Yellow became a tramp yeah The brightest colour in the world. Two boys... Two boys, yellow an' green.
