"The Other Man's Grass Is Always Greener" is a song written by Tony Hatch and Jackie Trent which was a 1967-68 hit for Petula Clark.

The resultant These Are My Songs album was also produced by Burke with Hatch contributing only one track albeit the one selected as the follow-up single: "Don't Sleep in the Subway".

This track: "The Other Man's Grass Is Always Greener" — which Hatch says contains "a lot of deep thought [and] a lot of philosophy... [Clark] enjoyed singing those kind of songs" [1] — was musically similar to "Don't Sleep in the Subway" but failed to approach that hit's success, reaching only #31 on the Hot 100 in Billboard for the last week of December 1967 and the first week of January 1968.

The original Billboard magazine review of the song raved that "The team of Clark-Hatch and Trent combines talents once again for this blockbuster rhythm item that should rapidly rise to the top.

Clark's recording of "The Other Man's Grass Is Always Greener" plays under the opening credits of the 1997 film Twin Town,[4] and is likewise utilized in the 2013 mini-series Power Games: The Packer-Murdoch War broadcast by Nine Network (Aus.).
