Story behind the song
All of the crayons from the crayon box have been selected by the children; all, that is, except Olive. She laments about the situation.
Lyrics
Here I am, where I was before
Left all alone in this box once more
They pick my friends one time or another,
Even my sister and my baby brother
But nobody chooses me
I wash my face and I brush my teeth
I put on clean clothes so I'm fresh and neat
I shine my shoes; I do what I can
Why I'm not chosen I don't understand
Nobody chooses me
My mom says it's 'cause I'm special
My dad says it's 'cause I'm unique
Well if those are truly the reasons
I'd rather be ordinary
The children, they say I'm boring and dull
And I just don't know what to make of it all
My best friend sweet fuchsia says I will find
My beauty discovered
All in good time
Still nobody chooses me
Nobody chooses me
