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 dream dream

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

than to splutter out silly little word

leaping frogs and airship portals

think that I should've known

better than 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

than to splutter out this silly melody

leaping frogs and airship portals

think that you should've known better

than to cry cry a felony

[they tell stories

they tell stories of lepricorns and dragons, witches, wizards, trolls and dungeons

fantasies and mysteries you proclaim

the real world is a lot scarier and there's always 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

you silly billy boy

you silly billy boy
