Oh boy, I bring the green.
It's no fun being Jack-in-the-Green:
No place to dance, no time for song.
He wears the colours of the summer soldier;
And carries the green flag all the winter long.
Why is Toronto's color blue?
The rich blue colour was picked to represent the
sky above city hall and the nearby 
waterfront of Lake Ontario.Jays;
William Mills, a periodontist from Etobicoke, was selected from a draw as the grand winner. Mills stated that it was traditional for a Toronto-based sports team to have the colour blue as its primary colour and following the leads of the Baltimore Orioles and St. Louis Cardinals that the team be named after a bird.
