"Year Of The Dragon" lyrics

"Year Of The Dragon"

Here comes the daddy
Gonna knock me off my feet
Here comes the daddy
He's gonna knock us off our feet
Won't have to push too hard with me
I'm at the time these days where I'm easy

I will take the plunge and I will fall
I'll get up when I hit the floor
Falling down watching the world rise above my head
Sky opens and something somewhere becomes dead
Becomes dead
Something is born

Natural or environmental
My freewheeling towards the emotional
I will not hoard my chips
I will put them all on the table
I will win them back
I know that I'm able

I was born in the year of the dragon
The one to prize where everything and everybody
Is on my side
I've got you on my side
Twenty one is a good age to be
Forgiven your faults and praised
For the newness of one of your ideas
Some people hate me
They say that I'm too free
But one day soon I'll be just like them
And hate people just like me
So let me be

Ah...
Ah...
Ah...
