Fantastically Great Women Who Changed the World the Musical - World of Colour Lyrics


The song was written by Miranda Cooper, Jennifer Decilveo & Chris Bush.
Performed by Jade Kennedy (as Frida Kahlo)


FRIDA KAHLO:
People said I painted dreams
But that isn’t how it seems
This is no fantasy
I paint my own reality
Yeah
A hidden world in green and blue
In every picture, there’s a clue
Of who I’m trying to be
I paint my own reality
And when life drags me down
I found

In a world of colour
The universe is mine
In a world of colour
You can draw outside the lines
And when I paint the flowers
They live on and never die
I have no need for feet
When I have wings to fly

When I paint ribbons in my hair
They show my thoughts all knotted there
They hold a piece of me
I paint my own reality
And when I had something to decide
I drew a Xolotl dog as my spirit guide
This is my ancestry
I paint my own reality
Let them see the world you see
Trust me

ALL:
In a world of colour
The secrets I reveal
In a world of colour
I decide what’s real
And when I paint the flowers
They live on and never die
I have no need for feet
When I have wings to fly
In a world of colour, colour,
In a world of colour, colour
I can fly!
In a world of colour, colour
Fly!
In a world of colour, colour

Every life will have some pain
A little sun, a little rain
A little hope, a little fear
A little down, a little cheer
Every life will have some pain
A little sun, a little rain
A little hope, a little fear
A little down, a little cheer

(spoken)
You ready?
One, two, three, four!
Let’s go!
Ha, ha, ha, let’s go!
Whoo! Ho, ho!
Haha! Hey!
Ha, ha, hey!
Ha, ha, ho!
Ha, ha, hey!

FRIDA KAHLO:
Look at me and know it’s true
I am just as strange as you
We both have light inside
Let your wings open wide!
Oh!

ALL:
In a world of colour
You can see this through my eyes
See through my eyes
In a world of colour
I don’t have to compromise
And when I paint the flowers
They live on and never die
And never die
I have no need for feet
I painted wings to fly
In a world of colour, colour,
In a world of colour, colour
I can fly!
In a world of colour, colour
Fly!
In a world of colour, colour
If the mountain that you dream of
Seems too high to ever climb
Paint yourself a pair of rainbow wings to fly
