Sing a Song

Here is a funny rhyming poem about different colors.

Fred Red bumped his head;
Had to be fed in bed.
Mellow Yellow is a funny fellow;
He only eats yellow Jell-O.
Sue Blue got the flu—
Boo Hoo, Boo Hoo
Jean Green is so mean;
She’s the meanest Jean I’ve seen.
Burple Purple is a nerple!
Ollie Orange ate all the oranges.
John Brown went to town;
He is such a silly clown.
Jack Black sat in the back.
Willie White is always right!
