[verse]
An experimentation in colour.
A decision that I can't take lightly.
I have to find a subtle set of colours that work,
And don't blur out the screen too brightly.

[alt-verse]
Four colour schemes that I have made.
But the top-most one's not great.
At least it's nice to have something other than
Dark mode or Light mode to choose from.

[bridge]
I'll probably try to use those designer skills.
The ones that I do not have

[chorus]
But at least I know (at least I know)
What not to do (What not to do)
Avoid a screen (avoid a screen)
That's full and mean (full and mean)
I must add art (a bit of art)
And much more colour (much more colour)
To make the tutor (make the tutor)
A friendly place (so friendly) (yay)

[Scene One]
Int. Dave's Bunker - Dave's Bedroom

[Dave is staring at paint swatches while Green lounges on the sofa]
Dave: I think I want to paint my bedroom green.
Green: Oh, very funny. Taking the mick, are we?
Dave: No, I'm serious! A nice mint green. Or maybe a subtle pale green.
Green: Like those mutant cabbages outside?
Dave: Yeah, like that! Well, you know, before they all got covered in cola, obviously.
Green: You know, last time we painted, you were dead set against green.
Dave: That was your room, this is different.
Green: So, it's ok for you to have Green but not me?
Dave: You didn't want Green either. You started moaning about not wanting everything Green, with your name being Green.
Green: Oh yeah, I did say that, didn't I. Maybe you should avoid.. ... Parker?
Dave: That's not a colour.
Green: No. But it is a type of jacket.

[Scene Two]
Int. DIY Store

[Dave and Green are looking at paint samples]
Green: Remember what Matt said about mixing? Three parts green to one part white.
Dave: No mixing this time. I want something ready-made.
Green: What about this one?
Dave: Too dark. I want something lighter, like the cabbage. Feel the cabbage. Be the cabbage!
Green: How about that one? Zen Green.
Dave: That sounds more like a nickname for you! Zen Greenie!!
Green: It's a nice colour, too.
Dave: Alrighty! Let's 'ave it.

[Scene Three]
Int. Dave's Bunker - Dave's Bedroom

[Dave's already painted the main wall, as Greenie enters]
Green: Alright I found my roller. ... Good grief, you don't hang around.
Dave: Yeah, come on Greenie, let's get the first coat done, as quick as we can, so we've got time for a rest before lunch.
Green: Um, sure, ok. Pass me the paint.
Dave: I thought you had it?
Green: How could I have it? You've ... .. You've been painting with it. I haven't even been here.
Dave: Oh yeah.

[Dave pauses for a moment, and looks around the room]
Dave: .. Is it the green one?
Green: Yes, Dave. It's the green one.
Dave: OK, then it's in the plant pot by the kitchen cabinets.
Green: [confused] Ok...
