Emerald City Sequence lyrics
(quincy jones/charlie smalls)
Emerald city green: I want to be seen green Wouldnt be caught dead, red Cause if you are seen green It means you got mean bread Youve got to be seen green To show that you're stuffs layed If you're not seen green You better be wearing jade Oh, youve got to be seen green Don't tell them your cupboards bare That you gave up one weeks feed To pay for your colored hair Oh, oh, oh An announcement from the great powerful oz: I thought it over and green is dead Till I change my mind, the color is red Emerald city red: I wouldn't be seen green Ooo! oo! oo! ah! ah! I wouldn't be caught dead And if Im caught at all Then catch me in dead, red Ooo! Youve got to be dead red Youve got to be real hot So throw away those green gems And wear rubies on your yacht Youve got to be dead, red Youve got to have flash and flair And if you're not seen red Then you shouldn't be seen nowhere Ah! How quickly fashion goes down the drain. Last week when you all was wearin pink Already for me red was old. The ultimate brick is gold. That's the new color, children Emerald city gold: Golden gold Golden gold Golden gold Golden gold You got to be seen gold Watch out for the new kind You got to have old gold Like some from a gold mine You got to be wearin gold The twenty four carat kind And once youve shined it up It should ought to make you blind, ah! You got to be seen in gold To show that you're super slick It helps to pay tips and tolls Its the ultimate yellow brick Its the ultimate Gold Golden gold Golden gold Golden gold Golden gold Golden gold Golden gold Golden gold Gold, gold, gold, gold Gold!
