Lyrics: Dragonflies & Astronauts

For heaven’s sake
oh what’s it gonna take
for you to leave me
to live my dreams

for heaven’s sake
I think I might just take
all of me
and dream my dreams

they say in life
that’s the price you pay
but no one said how much I’d have to pay

dragonflies and astronauts
think that I should’ve known
better then to splutter out silly little word
leaping frogs and airship portals
think that I should’ve known
better then to flutter out my silly little world

for crying out loud
what’s wrong with being proud
of who you are
you’re a shining star

for crying out loud
I think I love the sound
of your guitar
you’ve come so far
in life you get what you pay for
but somehow I just expected more

dragonflies and astronauts
think that I should’ve known
better then to splutter out this silly melody
leaping frogs and airship portals
think that you should’ve known
better then to cry cry a felony

[spoken:
They tell stories
They tell stories of leprechauns and dragons,
witches, wizards, trolls, and ...
Fantasies of mystery you proclaim
The real world is a lot scarier
And this boy has a price to pay]

dragonflies and astronauts
leaping frogs and airship portals
splutter flutter silly billy boy
butterflies and hurricanes
penguins pelicans talking rubbish
splutter flutter silly billy boy
dragonflies and astronauts
leaping frogs and airship portals
splutter flutter silly billy boy.
