To all the world you're just a grub but
They don't know what you're capable of
You don't either, you need a reminder
That's why I call you butterfly
You're feeling sorry for yourself
And you want so bad to be something else, well
There's an old process called metamorphosis
Give it a try and be a butterfly!
Ain't it time you stopped dragging
All them feet about the place
Just as soon as you burst your cocoon
You won't recognize your face...
Oh the more you have to struggle through
The sweeter victory tastes to you
From the ashes, beauty flashes
That's the cry of the butterfly...
(no blood)
(or despair)
(so much love... it's everywhere)
(things get to change overnight)
(it won't take long, it will be all right)
Oh trust me son your life's about to take an astounding route
You're a brave fella, young cater-pella
I see you flying high in a fancy suit, well
Crowds above and crawling things
Gazing wonder at your wings
So . em, kiss and embrace them
Don't be shy you're a butterfly
(la, la, la, la)
(la, la, la, la)
To all the world you're just a grub but
They don't know what you're capable of
You don't either
Here's a reminder now...
