Green Lyrics
We like to spy on the neighbors.
They look so happy together.
Funny the power of strangers.
Sometimes I wonder if they got it better.
Green.
Have you seen green?
Check out the view from the rooftop.
They've got a horse and a big trampoline.
Running and jumping till they drop.
Down on the ground and they're rolling around in... green.
Have you seen green?
Have you seen green grass?
So green... grass.
So green.
I'd like to be like that.
I'd like to be like that.
I'd like to be moving on a lawn... so green.
I want to laugh the way they laugh.
See all my blues get back up in the sky.
If only we had what they had.
We'd never worry and we'd never cry for... green.
Have you seen green?
Have you seen grass?
So green... grass.
So green.
I'd like to be like that.
I'd like to be like that.
I'd like to be moving on a lawn... so green.
They look so happy together.
Funny the power of strangers.
Sometimes I wonder if they got it better.

So green... grass.
So green.
I'd like to be like that.
I'd like to be like that.

I want to laugh the way they laugh.

wow so there is a big under appreciation for Edie Brickell on this site i see, and just in general.
"I'd like to be moving on a lawn... so green. " i just love that part
i think this song is about being green like fresh? or new hard feeling to describe but i can totally relate...
@JasmineBird the song is about longing for what your neighbors have. There is an old saying, "The grass always looks greener on the other side of the fence." This song ridicules the concept of neighbor envy.
