Paint your sky in Phthalo Blue
and Alizarin Crimson
Swirls of Cadmium Yellow
sienna and vermillion

Make it any way you want
cause it's your world in the end
Paint yourself a little tree
and give it a little friend

Pick the colours that you like
mixed together on your brush
If you don't like it you can
try again there is no rush

You don't need to justify
You've got nothing to defend
Know that there is nothing wrong
with having a tree as a friend

You can do what you want
Just make it passionate
There are no mistakes
just happy accidents

Just use your imagination
Any way you please
This is your creation
So build it as you see
Seek out new sensations
or sail the seven seas
You're the only one to appease
To be a Happy Little Tree
We're all happy little trees
While we're swaying in the breeze
We're all happy little trees

Paint your world in Prussian Blue
Give yourself a big, bright sky
Add some white and burnt umber
And give your world highlights

You're the creator of this world
Find your freedom on its canvas
Make a small room of your own
Or dream up entire planets

I'm not saying it'll always be simple
I'm not saying it's a life of ease
I'm not saying everybody will love you
Or that you won't make enemies
I'm not saying that it's all a party
While we're swaying in the breeze
I'm not saying it'll all be chocolate and cheese
But we're all happy little trees
