  • Hey hey oh
    Donna, what's going on?

    1 2 3

    [Chorus]

    We're like crayons melting in the sunshine
    Take a big eraser and wipe out the line
    Oh ,oh what's up tell me what's a-happening
    say you want love but why ain't you sacrificing?
    we're like crayons melting in the sunshine
    I'll color your world if you color mine
    Oh ,oh what's up tell me what's a-happening
    say you want love but why ain't you sacrificing?


    Come on over you sleepyhead
    it's time to color my dress in red
    It don't matter if it's day or night
    we play in color not in black in white

    Come on let's color the world in green
    Let's make a difference in the way we dream
    We're going to color a smiling face
    on the people of the human race

    1 2 3

    I'll take a walk on the wild side
    Don't be afraid you can be mine
    In and out, in and out, in and out of the lines
    Take a walk on the wild side
    Don't be afraid you could be mine
    In and out of the lines, in and out , in and out of the lines

    [Chorus]

    (Everybody dreaming )

    If we mix in some pink and blue
    We get a beating at a purple hue
    Mellow yellow when the day is done
    Becomes the orange of the setting sun

    1 2 3 come on

    I'll take a walk on the wild side
    Don't be afraid you can be mine
    In and out, in and out, in and out of the lines
    Take a walk on the wild side
    Don't be afraid you could be mine
    In and out of the lines, in and out , in and out of the lines

    [Chorus]

    Red is the color of the blood in our veins oh
    Like the rainbow we are one the same (just one yeah)
    (Everybody dreaming )
    Yellow is the color of the sun we share
    The green grass is everywhere
    (Everybody dreaming )
