The Grass Is Green

Nelly Furtado

Oh, I once had something

Something that was so good

Better than the last thing I touched

Then turned right around on that something

And figured I didn't like that much



Oh yeah, the grass is green

But can you tell me, can you feel it, I wanna feel it

Oh yeah, the grass is green

But I think I stained my jeans and now everybody knows thah I been in it



I am a believer

But as I was standing

In line, somebody took my place

Yes, I'm a believer, never mind what they say

I got so tired along the way



Oh yeah, the grass is green

But can you tell me, can you feel it, I just wanna feel it

Oh yeah, the grass is green

But I think I stained my jeans and now everybody knows thah I been in it



I've got a skeleton that's deeper than any closet

And a bomb that I will drop on it

But you opened up to me

'Til I could only see the beauty in your dishonesty



Oh yeah, the grass is green

But can you tell me, can you feel it, you just wanna feel it

Oh yeah the grass is green

But it think I stained my jeans and now, baby, you can tell that I been in it



Oh yeah, the grass is green but it's not what it seems cause when you think

You want it you just need it

Forget just what you need

The clock is ticking and this life is a train, man, I think you're on it

But it's what you wanted, and what you needed

It's what you wanted, and what you needed

Or is it what I needed and what you wanted
