Baby Dragon on the Rise

Tiny claws on the kitchen tile

Breathin’ steam on the window glass

Got a cape made of old beach towel

Says he’s movin’ up fast

Cereal bowl like a treasure chest

Spills milk when he spreads his wings

He goes “watch this

I’m dangerous”

Trips

Laughs

And he still sings

Baby dragon on the rise to the top

Stubby wings

But he’ll never stop

Little roar in a big big world

(yeah) he’s my brave little fireball girl

Baby dragon

Every fall is a jump

Every bump just a victory stomp

He’s so small but he thinks he’s a star

Baby dragon

That’s exactly what you are

Scales shining in marker ink

Crowns drawn on his paper hat

Builds a throne out of cardboard bricks

Rules the realm from the laundry mat

Burnt toast

He calls it “practice”

For the heat he will someday bring

Says “one day they will chant my name”

Then mispronounces his own thing

Baby dragon on the rise to the top

Stubby wings

But he’ll never stop

Little roar in a big big world

(oh) my brave little fireball girl

Baby dragon

Every fall is a jump

Every bump just a victory stomp

He’s so small but he thinks he’s a star

Baby dragon

That’s exactly what you are

One day he’ll clear the clouds

Fly past every doubt

But right now

Feet on the ground

He still lights up the house (hey!)

Baby dragon on the rise to the top

Stubby wings

But he’ll never stop

Little roar in a big big world

(yeah) my brave little fireball girl

Baby dragon

Every fall is a jump

Every bump just a victory stomp

He’s so small but he thinks he’s a star

Baby dragon

You’re already where you are
