Oh, common yellow butterfly,
How great you are.
Your bright and innocent yellow
Is one of a kind.
Common yellow butterfly,
How happy you must be.
Flying freely, carried by the wind.
Oh, common yellow butterfly,
How great you are.
Overlooked by the world for how common you are.
Common yellow butterfly,
How fragile you are.
The same wind that carried you
Now leads you to your death.
Your bright and innocent yellow,
Now turned pale and gray.
