Be the stealth between stones
The abracadabra amongst clones
Be the fighting fish with a fancy tail
The wizard who deifies gnomes
No worry be happy missiles flying
While innocents are dying
You’re pretty nimble for your age
One day a wombat next day a sage
On the way to feeding a despot
You summoned your rage
Most virtuous mother don’t be fooled
They will bomb our shelter scorch our earth
Unwind regroup turn swine into pearl
Be the change you wanna see in the girl
