LYRICS

I spy with my little eye

Blue and grey and green.

Open, blinking,

Wide and winking,

The loveliest eyes I’ve ever seen.

I see colours, colours everywhere!

The colours of Australia, the beauty we all share.

I see colours, colours everywhere!

So let’s hold hands and show we care.

I spy with my little eye

Blonde and black and red.

Straight and long,

Curly and strong,

Different hair on different heads.

I see colours, colours everywhere!

The colours of Australia, the beauty we all share.

I see colours, colours everywhere!

So let’s hold hands and show we care.

I spy with my little eye

Peach and tan and brown.

Cheeks and noses,

Fingers and toes,

Beautiful skin is all around.

I see colours, colours everywhere!

The colours of Australia, the beauty we all share.

I see colours, colours everywhere!

So let’s hold hands and show we care.

We’re lucky to live in a colourful world,

With friendly boys and friendly girls,

We all look different but on the inside,

We have the same heart and we wear it with pride!

I see colours, colours everywhere!

The colours of Australia, the beauty we all share.

I see colours, colours everywhere!

So let’s hold hands and show we care.

So let’s hold hands and show we care.

So let’s hold hands and show we care.
