Keeping Track of My Colors
If I were in a box of crayons
I don't know what color I'd be
I want to be something rare and cool
That exudes great beauty
If I were in a box of crayons
I'd definitely be white
I'm the most classy but of course
I won't put up a fight
If I were in a box of crayons
I'm sure that I'd be black
We all know that saying, once black
No going back
If I were in a box of crayons
I'd be cool like gray
I'm not a person that is
Molded of clay
If I were in a box of crayons
I'd surely be brown
For I'd be the one turning
Smiles into frowns
If I were in a box of crayons
I'd be fiery scarlet
My blazing personality would
Make everyone forfeit
If I were in a box of crayons
I be beautiful burgundy
You know I'd never, ever
Let someone hurt me
If I were in a box of crayons
I'd be the sagacious red
For my sense of humor would
Bring everyone dread
If I were in a box of crayons
I'd be very pretty pink
Not all bubbles are stupid
I'd prove I could think
If I were in a box of crayons
I'd be oh so silly purple
For my crazy sense in humor
Is like Steve Urkel's
If I were in a box of crayons
I'd be a deep indigo
For I'm sure that none could leap as far
As I could go
If I were in a box of crayons
I'd be a soothing blue
Since I am so happy
So should you
If I were in a box of crayons
I'd be like Turquoise
But that's my sister's name
That's her voice
If I were in a box of crayons
I'd be luscious green
Because all friends need someone
On which to lean
If I were in a box of crayons
I'd love to be lime
Everyone laughs with me
All of the time
If I were in a box of crayons
I'd be bright yellow
Cause I truly am
A jolly little fellow
If I were in a box of crayons
I'd be a magnificent peach
For no one can resist my charm while
I sit on a beach
If I were in a box of crayons
I'd never be orange
For I have nothing to rhyme with
That stupid, annoying orange!
