Please oh please wear blue and green
so flowers can bloom and birds can sing
today
Hang out with your friends cool breeze and sun
and I'm-a join y'all so we can all have fun
today
and blow me a kiss and dry my clothes
while I run through these sheets like I'm 5 years old
today
You got the natural wood grain with that big ol' 'fro
your fresh 15's got me ridin' low
today

smile today
(plant some seeds)
smile today
(run with the breeze)
smile today
(What-ever happened to our leaders?)
smile
today

See you got this new man who treats you wrong
but I'ma do you good before you're used and gone
today
and if you feelin' kinda grey I understand
emotions sway but I'm still your friend
today
You got bugs in your house that you let run free
but if they don't bug you then they don't bug me
today
See, I respect you and you respect me back
so I'm-a make sure I put my trash in the sack
today, today

smile today
(run with the breese, plant some seeds)
smile today
(rap with the trees, learnin' plus degrees)
smile today
(roll in the leaves, happy like Mary)
smile today
(I feel good today, so good)

In orange and brown you look so young
so let's spend the night 'n tell purple to come
today
and I'm-a sing you a song so play that track
with the crickets in the back that's so abstract
today
and as I take a deep breath I close my eyes
I say a little prayer for the sun to rise
today (tomorrow)
and I'll see in the morning all bright and fresh
and I'll be the girl in the yellow dress
new day, new day

smile today
(smile)
smile today
(run with the breeze, happy like Mary)
smile today
(whatever happened to our leaders?)
