LYRICS

California's on fire
Jersey's covered in snow
Floods in Louisiana
And hurricanes on the coast

If I close my eyes
And start to pray
Oh, when I open them
Nothing's changed

CHORUS
When I was young
You told me green green green
But you never told me what that means
I turn around
You pick the forest clean
So, tell me what you mean by green

VERSE 2
If California's on fire
There's no water around
Floods in Louisiana
When will I reach the higher ground?

Now I'd go to the doctor
If I was ill
But what you give to me
Is a poison pill

CHORUS
When I was young
You told me green green green
But you never told me what that means
Your pockets grow
As you clip my wings
So, tell me what you mean by green

VERSE 3
If California's on fire
Will it burn to the ground?
Or as the flames grow higher
Will you save our town?

Cause I've been around long enough
To finally see
That you and me won't agree
On what you mean by green

CHORUS
When I was young
You told me green green green
But you never told me what that means
You save the earth
From your limousine
So, tell me what you mean by green

La, lala lala la
Lala lala la
Lala lala la

La, lala lala la
Lala lala la
Lala lala la

La, lala lala la
Lala lala la
Lala lala la

La, lala lala la
Lala lala la
La la la la
