Rainbow Lyrics

[Intro]
Rainbow
We're the colours of the rainbow, oh
Rainbow


[Verse 1]
He grew up in the city
Had a lot of money
Sponging off his daddy all the time
He lives in a bubble
Never had a struggle
So far from the benefit line


[Pre-Chorus 1]
But he feels blue sometimes
And his blood bleeds red like mine

The grass is greener on the other side
What I'm saying is we're all alike, yeah


[Chorus]
We're the colours of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
Let's share our pot of gold
We're the colours of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
Everybody's on the yellow brick road
There's enough for you, you, you, you, you
There's enough for me, me, me, me, me

We're the colours of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
We're the colours of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
[Break]
Rainbow, rainbow, rainbow
Rainbow, rainbow, rainbow, rainbow


[Verse 2]
This Mommy in the ghetto
Gotta work a double
Just to pay the bills and get by
But more power to ya
Keep doing what you do, ya
Everybody's steady on the grind

[Pre-Chorus 2]
But you feel blue sometimes, yeah
And your blood bleeds red, like mine

The grass is greener on the other side
What I'm saying is we're all alike, yeah oh


[Chorus]
We're the colours of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
Let's share our pot of gold
We're the colours of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
(We're the colours of the rainbow)
Everybody's on the yellow brick road
(Everybody's on the, everybody's on the yellow...)
There's enough for you, you, you, you, you
There's enough for me, me, me, me, me

We're the colours of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
(We're the colours of the rainbow, yeah)
We're the colours of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
[Bridge]
Hello, hello
Why does everybody get so mad?
Yellow, yellow
Is the colour for the battle in my head
I need pink in my life like love in my heart
Silver in the sky as we rock with the stars
We just can't keep fighting anymore
No, no, no

[Chorus]
We're the colours of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
Let's share our pot of gold
We're the colours of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
Everybody's on the yellow brick road
There's enough for you, you, you, you, you
There's enough for me, me, me, me, me

We're the colours of the rainbow (yeah, yeah)
Rainbow (yeah, yeah)

[Outro]
We're the colours of the rainbow, yeah yeah
Yeah, oh, yeah
We're the colours, c-colours, c-colours of the rainbow, yeah
We're the colours of the rainbow
R-r-r-rainbow, r-r-r-rainbow
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Colours of the rainbow

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
