paroles de chanson Flowers Are Red (Live) - Live - Harry Chapin

The little boy went first day of school
He got some crayons and started to draw
He put colors all over the paper
For colors was what he saw
And the teacher said. What you doin′ young man
I'm paintin′ flowers he said
She said... It's not the time for art young man
And anyway flowers are green and red
There's a time for everything young man
And a way it should be done
You′ve got to show concern for everyone else
For you′re not the only one
And she said...
Flowers are red young man
Green leaves are green
There's no need to see flowers any other way
Than they way they always have been seen

So many colors in the morning sun
So many colors in the flower and I see every one
Well the teacher said. You′re sassy
There's ways that things should be
And you′ll paint flowers the way they are
So repeat after me...
And she said...
Flowers are red young man
Green leaves are green
There's no need to see flowers any other way
Than they way they always have been seen
But the little boy said...
There are so many colors in the rainbow
So many colors in the morning sun
So many colors in the flower and I see every one
The teacher put him in a corner
She said. It′s for your own good.
And you won't come out 'til you get it right
And are responding like you should
Well finally he got lonely
Frightened thoughts filled his head
And he went up to the teacher
And this is what he said. and he said
Flowers are red, green leaves are green
There′s no need to see flowers any other way
Than the way they always have bee
