Ginger cats, goldfish, bonfires, and mangoes
Sunsets and cheddar, Tigger dancing tangoes,
Clementines, tangerines, nectarines, too
These are some things that are orange, not blue.
Oranges, cantaloupes, clownfish, tangelos
Nasturtiums, cheddar cheese, quivering jellos
Marigolds, poppies, and that butterfly
It's called a viceroy when it flutters by.
Carrots and pumpkins and big ripe persimmons
Marigolds and floaties you wear while swimmin',
Poppies you see by the Cali roadside
These things are orange without being dyed.
So raise your crayon or your glass of OJ,
Sing out the praises of orange on this day.
Tomorrow might be all yellow and green
But you'll still remember the orange you've seen!
Okay. You can stop singing now.
Really. Stop. You're gonna hurt yourself.
Here's the bracelet. Enjoy!
