Jellybeans

An orange is orange,

A lemon is yellow,

White is marshmallow

And green tastes like detergent

 

Red tastes like wine

And pink like a swine

And then there’s purple—

It doesn’t taste like Prince,

 

It doesn’t taste like medicine,

But maybe it’s an ancient cure

That changes you into a frog

Green still tastes like detergent

 

Black is magic,

Tastes like history,

But maybe it comes from out of space

And we can never find
