[Verse 1]
Whatchu' you say though?
Everything is yellow
It's Coldplay now, we're taking it slow
I take a look around and all I see
Is pretty people in the streets, yeah
Don't panic though, everything is good though
Donatella, Donatello
I take a look around and all I see
Is people like you and me
[Pre-Chorus]
If I ever, ever get it right sometime
Yellow sun and yellow lights will shine sometime
All I want is one thing, something bright at times
Yellow sun and yellow lights will shine sometime
[Chorus]
(Think another place, a different dimension
It's just another pain, but it's not forever
Whatchu' gonna do when it's for the better?)
Whatchu' you say though?
Everything is yellow
(Think another place, a different dimension
It's just another pain but it's not forever
Whatchu' gonna do when it's for the better?)
Whatchu' you say though?
Everything is yellow

Take a risk now, give it what you got now
Be my friend now, be my amigo
I take a look around and all I see is yellow things like a bee

If I ever, ever get it right sometime
Yellow sun and yellow lights will shine sometime
All I want is one thing, something bright at times
Yellow sun and yellow lights will shine sometime
[Chorus]
(Think another place, a different dimension
It's just another pain but it's not forever
Whatchu gonna do when it's for the better?)
Whatchu you say though?
Everything is yellow
(Think another place, a different dimension
It's just another pain but it's not forever
Whatchu gonna do when it's for the better?)
Whatchu you say though?
Everything is yellow
