Saving Pennies

VERSE 1
I wanna be a hero
And also be the one who's saved
Don't wanna be a zero
But neither be the one that's always awake
I wanna be a dreamer
And face reality too
Sometimes I'm a believer
Sometimes I know the truth

CHORUS 1
And then I wanna save the world
And broker peace
Cure all ills, turn famine into feast
Invent fusion power
And teach the kids
To live in art and live off the grid

VERSE 2
I wanna be the flower
That everyone is hoping to pick
I also want the power
To know when I've been licked
I wanna sing forever
Even when I wanna die
Wanna open to another
But never let 'em see me cry

CHORUS 2
And then I wanna pass on dreams
To the one percent
Help them see that their view is bent
And I wanna be the world
That I want to see
Or at least
Be a better me

VERSE 3
I wanna be a dragon
Soaring high above the clouds
In a world that values dragons
Not just the meek and pretty mouse
And when I breathe my fire
There'll be no need for me to yearn
Cuz the fire is my passion
Just hope it doesn't burn

CHORUS 3
And then I want to cool things down
Save up the heat
For times less warm and days that freeze
And then I wanna reassure
The people sad
And let them know
That we're not that bad

Let's save our pennies
And save our dimes
And save the world
Cuz we still have time

VERSE 1 (repeated)
I wanna be a hero
And also be the one who's saved
Don't wanna be a zero
But neither be the one that's always awake
I wanna be a dreamer
And face reality too
Sometimes I'm a believer
Sometimes I know the truth.

END.
