The Parlotones- Dragonflies and Astronauts Lyrics

For heavens sakes,
Oh what’s it gonna take
For you to leave me,
to live my dreams?

For heavens sakes,
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 know better than
To splutter out silly little words
Leaping frogs and airship portals
Think that i should’ve know better than to flutter up 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 spluteer 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 leprechauns and dragons, witches, wizards, trolls, and dungeons
Fantasies and mysteries you proclaim
But the real world is alot scarier and there’s always a price to pay

Dragonflies and astronauts
Leaping frogs and airship portals
Splutter, flutter, silly billy boy
Chameleons, absurd assumptions, copy cats and talking parrots
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

Silly billy boy
