Weird question about fruit....

[h4rm0ny]

Was Louis Armstrong colour blind?

"Trees are green, red roses too."

Finally, someone else who gets driven mad by that song.

I always thought it was "Trees of green"

Which makes a hell of a lot more sense than what you put lol

those are the lyrics. have to be pretty dumb to think otherwise, it''s clear enough, frankly.

My name isn't frankly and I don't consider myself dumb, but for years I've thought he sang "are" rather than "of," maybe it's due to the tinnitus I've had since clubbing in the early 1990s.

He sees trees of green, he also sees roses.

I do not see the confusion?

Fruit colour isn't important as it rolls under the cubicle door.

Must be pretty dumb to have punctuation skills that lacking.

aw, someone's upset enough to start picking on jittery keys

How about Jabuticaba?

He sees "trees of green, red roses too" implying he sees "red roses of green"

That's a pretty odd fruit, but google it "unripe" and you'll see it in green

Far from it.. He see's trees of green, he sees red roses too.

Oh well. I'm out.

We need to move to the next line of the song to get another clue as to what colours he's seeing:

I see trees of green, red roses too...."I see them blue, for me and you".

So there we go, trees and roses are blue...

I see trees of green, red roses too...."I see them bloom, for me and you".

So there we go, trees and roses bloom...
