Fred Small - Peace Dragon Lyrics
The peace dragon sleeps in a cave in a cliff on a crystal seaIt wakes when sunlight slips inside with a fine good morning breezeThen it snaps its tail and cracks its claws and beats its giant wingsAnd it rides the rivers of the sky and peace to all it brings.CHORUS:Oh it snaps its tail and cracks its claws and beats its giant wingsand it rides the rivers of the sky and peace to all it brings.For breakfast it likes nothing more than missiles that go crunchA nuclear submarine sandwich really hits the spot for lunchFor dessert perhaps a neutron bomb washed down with a chemical brewDigesting deadly weapons seems a peaceful thing to do.CHORUSThe general stamped his foot and swore he'd slay that lizard of peaceHe launched a secret rocket while the dragon lay sound asleepBut friendly bats with sonar ears their serpent pal awokeAnd one quick snort from a fiery snout sent the rocket right up in smoke.CHORUSChildren wave and shout hello when it flies overheadIt calls to people, "Please don't fight but think and talk insteadDon't send your young ones off to war, don't poison all the earthWhen you're truly big and strong you'll understand what peace is worth."CHORUS
