It's a colorful world it's a beautiful world that we live [repeat]
It's a colorful world


She wears nose rings with weird things floating through her hair
She is slightly embarrassed by everyone who stares
And when she walks away you might say she's a little wild

But she could rule the world when she opens up her mouth and smiles

It's a colorful world that we live in, a colorful world that we live in

It's a colorful world it's a beautiful world that we live in(repeat)

Now he's been cheated, mistreated by the color of his skin

He is rarely contrary over what should not have been
And he holds up his head instead and he wears a smile
What motivates him most is what he finds deep down inside


Celebrate all our differences
Instead of building these lasting fences

What's in your heart matters most of all, most of all

We have millions of children with possibilities

From the streets of Nairobi to the hills of Tennessee
Every hand you touch has a friend with a different name
What makes this world a better place is that we're not the same
