Orange (by Ken Nordine)

Orange  (by Ken Nordine)

Take all the colors under the sun
Only one color I think much fun
And that’s Orange

Orange I said
The silly old color who lives next to Red
The one that is orangely out of its head

That giggles and titters and rolls in the aisle
No matter what happens, guffaws all the while

Old Orange

As flip as a Heiseman coin
Or a stone skipping waterly skips

As free as a spree with a bird’s supposed to be
If a spree with a bird could be free

Why not?

An orangey bird with orangey wings
With orangey songs that it orangey sings

That orangely comes as it orangely goes
Laughing in orange from its head to its toes

When everything’s orangey, goofy like this
Trouble’s a joke, just an orangey joke

So’s sorrow and sadness and sigh
Just jokes to poke orangey pokes at

Only one trouble troubles Orange
If you please

That’s in the morning
It’s the trouble called “Squeeze”

Changing orangey Orange
Into vitamin C’s
