Lyrics

Dragon Babies

Spoken Intro (children’s voices, no music except distant wind and birds)

(Little Girl #1:)
“Hey… come here!”

(Little Girl #2:)
“What is it?”

(Little Girl #1:)
“I found something…”

(Little Girl #2:)
“It looks like a rock.”

(Little Girl #1:)
“No…”

(“…it’s round.”)

(A pause.)

(Little Girl #2:)
“Wait…”

“I think it’s moving.”

(Little Girl #1:)
“Look!”

“It’s cracking!”

(Small cracking sounds…)

(Little Girl #2: (excited)
“Something’s coming out!”

(A tiny dragon chirps. Made by the pic sliding down the neck of the guitar)

(The girls scream…)

(Not in fear…)

,(In excitement.)

(At that exact moment—)

(BOOM!)

(The whole band crashes in.)

Verse 1

Little scales and emerald eyes,
Born beneath forgotten skies.
Hidden where the shadows sleep,
One small secret she would keep.

Tiny footsteps, little claws,
Learning life without a pause.
Fire no bigger than a spark,
Lighting up the after-dark.

Pre-Chorus

Every heartbeat growing stronger,
Every day a little longer.
What began as just a game…
Would never be the same.

⸻

Chorus

Dragon Babies!
Born where legends never die.
Spread your little broken wings,
One day you’re gonna own the sky.

Dragon Babies!
Never let them steal your flame.
The world may fear what it can’t understand…
But love will call your name.

⸻

Verse 2

Broken fences, stolen pies,
Smoke rings drifting through the skies.
Tiny footprints in the snow,
Everybody starts to know.

Whispers echo through the town,
“Track it…”
“Hunt it…”
“Burn it down…”

She grabs her friend and starts to run,
Knowing childhood’s almost done.

(Bass Break)

(The guitars fall away.)

(Charlotte’s bass carries the melody alone while the drums build underneath.)

(The bass starts playful—almost like the dragon running through the woods—before becoming darker and heavier as the chase begins.)

⸻

Verse 3

Through the forest, through the rain,
Holding tight through fear and pain.
Every torch begins to glow,
Every hunter closing slow.

(She whispers…)

“Don’t be scared.”

“I’m still here.”

“I’ll never leave you.”

⸻

(Lead Guitar Solo)

(The full band explodes into a soaring guitar solo.)

(Twin guitars answer Charlotte’s bass phrases before the solo climbs into a melodic, triumphant lead.)

⸻

Bridge

Maybe monsters…

Aren’t born with wings.

Maybe monsters…

Are the fear that hatred brings.

If love can raise…

What others fear…

Then maybe dragons…

Belong right here.

Final Chorus

Dragon Babies!
Born where legends never die.
Spread your little broken wings,
One day you’re gonna own the sky.

Dragon Babies!
Never hide your heart away.
Every legend starts out small…

Before it flies away.

⸻

Outro

(The instruments fade.) I

(Only Charlotte remains.)

(She softly sings:)

“Fly little dragon…”

“The sky’s waiting…”

(A tiny dragon chirp echoes one last time…)
