Color Nonsense
Serengeti is not the same color as
St. Martin Sand and is not the same
color as Middlebury Brown, and not
Monticello Rose and certainly not
Weston Flax. Got it?

No, and span isn't CSS at all. The color property is the "trick".
Surprising, is it not?
Use of span is a usual sign of lack of understanding of markup issues,
though if giving abstract advice to a generic question, formulated in
foobarish (aka Lorem ipsum), there's little else one can use, since any
other inline element could be semantically _wrong_. The span element is
_meaningless_, i.e. semantically empty.
However, you could just as well use
class="serengeti">Serengeti, being somewhat honest about it: you are
just thinking in terms of coloring words, not in terms of expressing
semantic or structural relationships.
If you want to save typing, would be an
interesting option.

Also there are even more bad ones. Buy Lie & Bos' book, which is a
good one.
