Paint It Yellow

If you're feeling rotten, rough

Too much nasty noxious stuff

Don't snap, crack and shout “Enough!”

Paint it yellow


Let's have misery no more

Kick your glumness out the door

Spread a shade that's rich and pure

Paint it yellow


Like the sunshine through a shower

Bright and brilliant packed with power

Don't be dull or drab or dour

Paint it yellow


Like bananas, like the moon

Like a cheerful child's balloon

Like a humming happy tune

Paint it yellow


Like a slice of Cheddar cheese

Like a lemon that you squeeze

Like a swarm of buzzy bees

Paint it yellow


You've no need to watch the news

Make a plan to beat the blues

What's the colour you should choose?

Paint it yellow
