This is the song of the rainbow crew
Seven bright colors are shining through!
Red, orange, yellow, green, and blue
Violet! Indigo! Let's go!

I'm Red, Red, fiery and proud
Like apples and fire trucks with a sound so loud!
I'm bold, I'm bright, and I stand out too
When you need some power, I'm here for you!

This is the song of the rainbow crew
Seven bright colors are shining through!
Red, orange, yellow, green, and blue
Violet! Indigo! Let's go!

I'm Orange, Orange, look at me!
Like pumpkins and tigers and autumn leaves!
I shine, I glow, I'm bold and bright
Like sunset skies that kiss the night!

This is the song of the rainbow crew
Seven bright colors are shining through!
Red, orange, yellow, green, and blue
Violet! Indigo! Let's go!

I'm Yellow, Yellow, super mellow
Like the sun, bananas, and yellow jello
I smile, I shine, I light the way
Bring sunshine to you every day!

This is the song of the rainbow crew
Seven bright colors are shining through!
Red, orange, yellow, green, and blue
Violet! Indigo! Let's go!

I'm Green, Green, fresh and new
Like grass, tree leaves, and veggies too!
I grow, I glow, I bring fresh air
You'll find me almost everywhere!

This is the song of the rainbow crew
Seven bright colors are shining through!
Red, orange, yellow, green, and blue
Violet! Indigo! Let's go!

I'm Blue, all the way through
Like the sky, the sea, and blue jays too!
I'm calm, I'm cool, I help you chill
Like a river glowing cool and still

Hey, I'm kinda like Blue

I'm Indigo, deep like night
Like denim jeans and twilight light!
I add a touch of mystery
Like the sky before it goes to sleep

This is the song of the rainbow crew
Seven bright colors are shining through!
Red, orange, yellow, green, and blue
Violet! Indigo! Let's go!

I'm Violet, fancy and fun
Like lilacs, grapes, and plum pudding buns
I sparkle, I dazzle, I twirl and sway
A touch of magic in every way!

This is the song of the rainbow crew
Seven bright colors are shining through!
Red, orange, yellow, green, and blue
Violet! Indigo! Let's go!

Red is fiery, Orange glows!
Yellow's sunny, Green just grows!
Blue is peaceful, Indigo deep!
Violet's magic, colors leap!

This is the song of the rainbow crew
Seven bright colors are shining through!
Red, orange, yellow, green, and blue
Violet! Indigo! Let's go!

Wow! Every color is so amazing!
Let's use them all and make something beautiful!
