I am looking for the words and guitar chords to 'The Prism Song' by Gail Garnett. It was the B side of 'We'll Sing in the Sunshine.' Thanks

Don't know the "Prisn Song", but do know about a "Prism Som Bitch". It's a southern colloquialism for a guy you can hold up to the light and no matter how you look at him, he's still a som bitch.

How about the one that starts:

If I had the wings of an angel
Over these prism walls I would fly ...

Sorry, couldnt resist.

Reviving this, coz I'd love the words and guitar chords to "Prism Song" by Gale Garnett too (she was that Kiwi-born American with the great husky voice!)

This is a GREAT song. My feeble memory says that sometime within the last few months, another thread happened about this song. I think the complete words were posted at that time. Perhaps someone else can help with this search? CHEERS, Bob

This thread: The Prism Song discussed it recently, as you say, Bob, but no lyrics.

Thanks everyone, but I didn't have any luck with Khandu's 19-Feb lost link, even though a link pixie had said it was fixed ...
Any more clues?!
Cheers! R-J

THE PRISM SONG
(Gale Garnett)

Red and yellow, blue and green
Prettiest thing I've ever seen
You know it's red and yellow, blue and green
Don't this world treat a little child mean.

Going home from school one day
I met a nice man on my way
Gave me a prism, shiny and clean
Prettiest thing I've ever seen.

Daddy left my Mommy but I don't cry
Hold that prism to my eye
Hold it there, night and day
Hold it 'til the hurt goes away.

Red and yellow, blue and green,
Prettiest thing I ever seen.
You know it's red and yellow, blue and green.
Lord, this world treat a little chil' mean.

Going home from school today,
I met a nice man on my way.
He gave me a prism, shiny and clean,
Prettiest thing I ever seen.

Chorus

Daddy left my mama but I won't cry.
Hold my prism to my eye.
Hold it there night and day.
Hold it till the hurt goes away.

chorus

Heard yesterday that my daddy was dead.
Cried until my little heart bled.
That was bad but then today,
Policeman come and take my mama away.

chorus

Police got a padlock on our door.
I can't go home anymore.
I'd go back, but if I do,
The man who got my mama gonna get me too.

So I'll keep...
chorus
:)
