Beautiful Land lyrics

Anthony Newley, Leslie Bricusse

Red is the color of a lot of lollipops,
Orange is any orange on a tree.
Yellow`s the color of a bag of lemon drops,
Green is a piece of seaweed in the sea.

Blue is the color of the sky in summertime
Indigo is a Siamese cat`s eyes.
Violet`s the color of a flow`r in wintertime.
These are the colors of the rainbow skies.

There is a beautiful land
Where all your dreams come true;
It`s all tied up in a rainbow,
All shiny and new;
But it`s not easy to find
No matter what you do.

It`s not on top of a mountain
Or beneath the deep blue sea
Or in London zoo or in Timbuktoo,
Or in Timbuckthree.

And if you travelled the world
From China to Peru,
There`s no beautiful land on the chart.
An explorer could not begin
To discover its origin
For the beautiful land is in your heart.
