Brown

Among purists, and you know how many purists there are
 Brown was having some difficulty
 Some of the purists wanted brown to be more
 Others wanted brown to be more
 Still others wanted brown to be
 To be basically brown
 Yeah, a lesser color might have fallen apart
 But brown met the problem beautifully
 By becoming just about as basic
 Just about as subtle
 As you can just about get
 That's why you hear so many people saying
 "My, that's a subtle brown"
 That's the way it's been ever since
 Even with a light tan
 Or sweet dark chocolate
 Or deep brown eyes
 Next time you see brown
 Any shade
 Subtle basic brown
