He actually has the accent down. Most people who learn other languages can't get the dialect to go with the words. If I didn't know who he was, I'd actually think he was French. :] I love him. I want to here more of these kinds of songs! :D
@peace4allyo have you ever heard a French person speak or sing? Yes, he is a genius, but he 's got a strooooooong accent (i know what i'm talking about, I'lm French:)
rohhh! c'est mignon!!!! et le texte est bien marrant! :-) toutes les fans françaises vont tomber amoureuses du charmant Andrew, j'en suis certaine!!!! mmmh! cet accent!!!!! so sweet!
I was at La Cigale on 27/4 when he sang this live. It was pretty sweet show. USO had him perform for us in Kuwait last year. He's a very talented musician.
I am utterly lost.

PART 3
Quand le vert est la seule chose que vous puissiez être
Vous pourriez vous demander pourquoi
Mais pourquoi se demander pourquoi je suis vert
Mais en vrai, c'est bon, et c'est exactement ce que je veux être.
I'm French, you're welcome !
Vive Andrew Bird !

PART 2
Et le vert est grand comme une montagne, et un important comme un fleuve, et grand comme un homme
Et comme le vert est la seule chose que vous puissiez être
Vous pourriez vous demander pourquoi
Mais pourquoi se demander pourquoi je suis vert
C'est pas vrai, et c'est exactement ce que je dis

PART 1
Ce n'est pas facile d'être vert
D'avoir chaque jour la couleur des feuilles
Quand je peux être quelque chose comme rouge, ou jaune, ou doré
Ou quelque chose plus coloré comme cela
Ce n'est pas facile d'être vert
C'est comme si vous vous fondiez parmi d'autres choses (au dîner ?)
Et les gens passent à côté de vous
Parce que vous n'êtes pas aussi remarquable que les étoiles dans le ciel
Mais le vert, couleur du printemps, et le vert est frais et convivial
