A pink heart and
An indigo mood
Are in the cup,
After shaking them a little,
Let's also try adding
Some mellow yellow
If i try and mix them
Until i get bored
I wonder what color
We'll change into?
A pink heart and
An indigo mood and
Mellow yellow and
Some purple feelings
I want to test
Let's add a little more
When i stir them
What mysterious pattern will appear?
Bending and blending
So beautiful
Try and stir
So strongly it overflows
Try and stir
So beautiful
Once more from the start
Do it correctly
In the cup
A pink heart and
An indigo mood
In the cup
When i try and stir
I guess only once is okay
More complicated than a rainbow and
So beautiful
