It Ain't Easy Being Green Lyrics - Singles - Shannon Mcnally

Well, I know a guy, he's from far far away 

He's a songwriter, he got something to say 

He says, "People in this city are too busy to hang out 

This town's so spread out, no one would hear you if you shout" 

Everyone's got a script to sell and someplace else they want to be 

There's always a lock that would open if you could just find the key 

But I know the patron saint of desperate causes 

Doesn't ring his fingers with diamonds and ruby roses 

Some say there's no solution to all this disillusion 

What am I to say to you who simply doesn't care? 

There's a lonely girl riding the bus in the middle of the night 

She calls herself up to hear a friendly voice 

And she says, "Hi, this is Casandra, leave your name and your number 

And I'll call you back if I have the time or if I remember" 

Patty cake, patty cake, barkeep man 

Pour me a beer as fast as you can 

What to do with all this sadness that I see 

Lord knows it ain't easy being green 

Some say there's no solution to all this disillusion 

What am I to say to you who simply doesn't care? Oh yeah 

Oh some say, there's no solution to all this disillusion 

What am I to say to you who simply doesn't care? Oh yeah 

Some say there's no solution to all this disillusion 

What am I to say to you who simply doesn't care? 

Who simply doesn't care, oh yeah, yeah
