Bottle Rockets - Kim Janssen

[00:07.44]I carry out the chairs
[00:13.72]And find the colored lights in the garden shed
[00:20.62]There are boxes on the stairs
[00:27.47]Full of rockets and dragon eggs
[00:30.69]
[00:34.89]Are you scared to sleep out on the grass by the pool?
[00:42.04]Where the spirits move in the water
[00:48.58]That you'll wake up and it's already dark
[00:55.11]And you're suddenly much older
[00:58.07]
[01:04.12]You hear the kids in the yard
[01:11.11]Coming back from the neighbours
[01:17.72]You wonder if one day
[01:24.52]They will become strangers
[01:28.11]
[01:31.46]The fires rise up from their little hands
[01:38.22]And transform in the sky into showers of light
[01:44.18]I'll find your hummingbird cake and the blue raspberry jam
[01:51.25]We'll fry our brains on a sugar-high
[01:54.69]
[02:01.69]Tie your feet, or you'll shoot off in the night
[02:08.04]With the violet balloons
[02:14.82]And the mighty wolf blows the candles out
[02:21.65]And howls to the moon
