I'm Just Green

RainyStorm had shown me an early version of their chapter "New Wallpaper" from their work "Continuations" (see here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/42273654/chapters/135821041) with their fantastic characterisation of Green, and I was *inspired* :D

This is a song parody of "I'm Just Ken" by Ryan Gosling (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwux9KiBMjE) from the BARBIE movie.

Doesn't seem to matter anymore
My efforts on the floor
No one knows how hard I tried

Oh, I
Why I'm failing now I can't explain
It's driving me insane
So I push my friends away
So I can't hurt them in my pain

I'm just Green
Always was the best one on the team
Is it my destiny to lose the podium from now until the end

I'm just Green
What if I lose more than self-esteem
What if I can't defend the ones I love against the world
And lose my friends?

—

How do I fix this wreckage I am, with my feelings churning?
And how do I face the ones I love, when my anger is burning?
And the bonds that I broke, will they ever mend or forever be hurting?
I can't hurt them...

—

Can you feel the Greenergy
Feels so real, my Greenergy
Can you feel the Greenergy
Feels so real, my Greenergy

—

I'm just Green
Always was the best one on the team
Is it my destiny to lose the podium from now until the end

I'm just Green
What if I lose more than my self-esteem
What if I can't defend the ones I love against the world
And lose my friends?

I'm just Green (And you're enough)
(And you're great at doing stuff)
So hey come check me out yeah I'm just Green

My name's Green (you're not alone)
As family we stand as one
So, hey, world, check me out, yeah, I'm just Green

Baby I'm just Green!

Thanks for reading!

Thank you to RainyStorm for the inspiration and permission to post this! <3

If you haven't read it already, please go read RainyStorm's wonderful chapter "New Wallpaper" from their work "Continuations" (https://archiveofourown.org/works/42273654/chapters/135821041)! It would probably be good to start from at least "Gunslinger" (https://archiveofourown.org/works/42273654/chapters/134830378#workskin) for context.
