COLORFUL, COLORFUL
APPEAR THE FIELDS IN SPRINGTIME
COLORFUL, COLORFUL
ARE THE LITTLE BIRDS THAT COME FROM OUTSIDE
COLORFUL, COLORFUL
IS THE RAINBOW THAT WE SEE SHINING
AND THAT’S WHY THE GREAT LOVES
OF MANY COLORS* ARE WHAT I LIKE
AND THAT’S WHY THE GREAT LOVES
OF MANY COLORS* ARE WHAT I LIKE
THE ROOSTER SINGS, THE ROOSTER SINGS
WITH THE COCKADOODLE-DOO, COCKADOODLE-DOO, COCKADOODLE-DOO
COCKADOODLE-DOO, COCKADOODLE-DOO
THE HEN, THE HEN
WITH THE CLUCK, CLUCK, CLUCK, CLUCK, CLUCK
THE CHICKS, THE CHICKS
WITH THE PEEP, PEEP, PEEP, PEEP, PEEP, PEEP
AND THAT’S WHY THE GREAT LOVES
OF MANY COLORS* ARE WHAT I LIKE
AND THAT’S WHY THE GREAT LOVES
OF MANY COLORS* ARE WHAT I LIKE
COLORFUL, COLORFUL
APPEAR THE FIELDS IN SPRINGTIME
COLORFUL, COLORFUL
ARE THE LITTLE BIRDS THAT COME FROM OUTSIDE
COLORFUL, COLORFUL
IS THE RAINBOW THAT WE SEE SHINING
AND THAT’S WHY THE GREAT LOVES

NOTE: “[G]reat loves of many colors” is an expression that means “great loves of all varieties,” for example, love of friends and family and romantic love. Stated differently, the verse means: “I like the great loves of all types.”
