Lyrics

Dragon Slayer
© Jason Paul Johnston 2006

You're out there I'm in here - so what's it going to be?
When come on home, and I am here - how will you find me?
Will you find me in a ball in the corner with my back in?
Or will you find me ten feet tall and slaying every dragon?

Oh I hope and pray that I'm a dragon slayer
Yes I hope for your sake, that I can be a dragon slayer

All alone - wondering what to do
All I've got is this campfire light, the flames seem so true
They are dancing in the light, wish you were right here
And it's growing as the fire takes over the room

But I hope and pray, that I can be a fireman some day
Yeah, I hope for your sake, that I can be a fireman today



His Claws are out, Teeth are bared - outweighs me by a ton
He's the top of the chain, He's the Jungle King - Maybe I should just run
Cause all I've got is this stool and a hoop to jump through
And a little bit of meat, but what's next when that's through?

Oh I hope and pray, that I can be a lion tamer
Yes I hope for your sake, I could be a lion tamer

There's a want ad on the table looking for the human race
When will I have the guts to apply and take my place?

I hope and pray, to be better than I am today
I hope for your sake, to be more than I am someday - someday...
