Dragonflies - TJ Carter

An original song written and recorded by me, TJ Carter, recorded 10-21-11.

Lyrics:
Dragonflies are my favorite kind of bug
Because they're awesome
Dragonflies are my favorite kind of bug
For numerous reasons

For one they've got really pretty colors
Fluorescent green, blue and pink
Two they look like x-wing fighters
I think George Lucas owes them some royalties

I like how dragonflies hunt the mosquitos
Cause I'm not big fan of mosquitos
They nab those mosquitos right out of the air
Cause they're aerial aces and they've got style graces

Dragonfly you always find me when I'm walking outside
Daydreaming alone again
You blur the lines between what's real and imaginary
in both worlds you are my friends

Chorus

Dragonfly you look like a little alien
Hovering around in the sky
Dragonfly you make a buzzing noise
I want to hum along with you as you pass by

Dragonfly you're always cordial with me
Cause you don't bite like a spider or sting like a bee
You just like floating round or chilling out on a leaf
I appreciate your lack of hostilities

Dragonfly I wish could give you a hug
But you're pretty small it would be difficult to do
But if you ever wanted to perch on my shoulder
Take a load off for a while well you'd be welcome to

Chorus

The last thing I want to say about dragonflies
is that they've got big multifaceted eyes
I bet they got vision like they're looking through a prism
With lots of rainbows and colors that us humans are missing
And they're cruising the forests or hanging out by your garden they make a stop by the river to strike a pose by the water
Buzzing by the lady dragonflies in the summer they know that winter is coming so they'd better start something oh yea!

Chorus
