Blue

 

A Korean man, was Mr. Lee
     Sweet, naive, and nice.
A learned man was Mr. Smith
     Reasonable, smart, and wise.

 

Smith and Lee went to the country
     The fresh air made them happy.
What beautiful blue-grass fields, said Lee
     No, green, said Smith very kindly.

 

Smith then took Lee on a trip
     To show him 'round the city.
A traffic light of blue, said Lee
     No, green, said Smith in a jiffy.

 

They next went to a nice cafe
     And sipped wine by a fire
What big blue eyes you have, said Lee
     No, green, said Smith somewhat tired.

 

Now Smith was exasperated and so
     He yelled at Mr. Lee.
I'm blue with fright, said the old poor man
     Screamed Smith, you're as white as a sheet!

 

And now both men don't ever meet
     And ignore each other on the street.
Thinks Smith, Lee must be color blind
To not know blue, Lee says
     Something's wrong wth Smith's mind.
