Tom: G
G
What's your favorite idea?
Cmaj7 Em D
Mine is being creative
G
How do you get the idea?
Cmaj7 Em D
I just try to think creatively
[Verse 2]
G
Now when you look at this orange
Cmaj7 Em D
tell me please, what do you see?
G
It's just a boring old orange
Cmaj7 Em D
Maybe to you, but not to me
G
I see a silly face
Cmaj7 Em D
walking along and smiling at me
G
I don't see what you mean
Cmaj7 Em D
'Cause you're not thinking creatively
[Verse 3]
G
So take a look at my hair (cool)
Cmaj7 Em D
I use my hair to express myself
G
That sounds really boring
Cmaj7 Em D
I use my hair to express myself
[Verse 4]
D A
Now, when you stare at the clouds in the sky, don't you find it exciting?
N.C.
No
D
Come on, take another look (Oh wait)
D
I can see a hat, I can see a cat
D
I can see a man with a baseball bat
Am
I can see a dog, I can see a frog
Am
I can see a ladder leaning on a log
[Verse 5]
G
Think you're getting the hang of it now
Cmaj7 Em D
Using your minds to have a good time
G
I might paint a picture of a clown
Cmaj7 En D
Whoa there friend, you might need to slow down
(pause)
[Verse 6]
G
Here's another good tip (Yeah?)
Cmaj7 Em D
of how to be a creative wiz kid
G
Go and collect some leaves and sticks
Cmaj7 Em D
and arrange them into your favorite color
G
Blue, Red, Green
Cmaj7 Em D
Green is not a creative color
[Verse 7]
G
There's one more thing that you need to know
Cmaj7 Em D
before you let your creativity flow
G
Listen to your heart, listen to the rain
Cmaj7 Em D
Listen to the voices in your brain
[Chorus]
N.C.
Come on guys, let's get creative
(just repeat G here for several measures)
[Verse 8]
G
Now let's all agree
Cmaj7 Em D
to never be creative again
