Lyrics

Watch out for the Butterflies – we're beginning to sharpen our claws.
Watch out for the Butterflies – smashing through ceilings and knocking down doors.
Watch out for the Butterflies…
(We're coming to get ya.)

Watch out for the Butterflies – we're beginning to bare our teeth.
Watch out for the Butterflies – delicate creatures with steel beneath.
Watch out for the Butterflies…
(This is our time now.)

Come on now, be strong now.
It's a big world and you've gotta belong now.
Come on now, let's dance and sing…
Cos Butterflies are on the wing.

Watch out for the Butterflies – we're beginning to make some noise.
Watch out for the Butterflies – confident creatures, we're nobody's toys.
Watch out for the Butterflies…
(We've been down too long.)

Come on now, be strong now.
It's a big world and you've gotta belong now.
Come on now, let's dance and sing…
Cos Butterflies are on the wing.

In my first life, I was meek and mild.
I hid away in my cocoon and I didn't dare try to fly.
But in my next life, I'll run wild,
I'll throw all caution to the wind
And I'll laugh like a child,
An innocent child,
A carefree child.

Come on now, be strong now.
It's a big world and you've gotta belong now.
Come on now, let's dance and sing…
Cos Butterflies are on the wing.

Watch out for the Butterflies…
