🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • Look how they shine for you
  • And everything you do
  • Yeah, they were all yellow
  • I came along

Echo the hook

  • And it was all yellow
  • (Ah) Your skin, oh, yeah, your skin and bones
  • (Ooh) Turn into something beautiful
  • (Ah) And you know, you know I love you so
yellow· amareloskin· pelebones· ossos
