Caterpillar
Chess game I know how to play
But checkers was more my weight
Look at it from where you are
Did you ever really wanna be a part
Oh, dressing up and looking the part
Didn't you wanna be the magic
When the crowd needs someone to give them a show
Didn't you wanna be the hero
When tragedy needed someone to take control
Did you wanna be the common caterpillar rise into a butterfly
Didn't you wanna see people flourish
Instead of just getting, getting by
Oh yeah
Getting by
War and peace sitting on my shelf
This explains me so well
Oh but I will never tell
I never read it, I never read it and I'm amazed
Oh, how far we're willing to go out of our way
Didn't you wanna be the magic
When the crowd needs someone to give them a show
Didn't you wanna be the hero
When tragedy needed someone to take control
Did you wanna be the common caterpillar rise into a butterfly
Didn't you wanna see people flourish
Instead of just getting, getting by
Oh yeah
Getting by
Didn't you wanna be the magic
When the crowd needs someone to give them a show
Didn't you wanna be the hero
When tragedy needed someone to take control
Did you wanna be the common caterpillar rise into a butterfly
Didn't you wanna see people flourish
Instead of just getting, getting by
Oh, getting by
Oh yeah
But checkers was more my weight
Look at it from where you are
Did you ever really wanna be a part
Oh, dressing up and looking the part
Didn't you wanna be the magic
When the crowd needs someone to give them a show
Didn't you wanna be the hero
When tragedy needed someone to take control
Did you wanna be the common caterpillar rise into a butterfly
Didn't you wanna see people flourish
Instead of just getting, getting by
Oh yeah
Getting by
War and peace sitting on my shelf
This explains me so well
Oh but I will never tell
I never read it, I never read it and I'm amazed
Oh, how far we're willing to go out of our way
Didn't you wanna be the magic
When the crowd needs someone to give them a show
Didn't you wanna be the hero
When tragedy needed someone to take control
Did you wanna be the common caterpillar rise into a butterfly
Didn't you wanna see people flourish
Instead of just getting, getting by
Oh yeah
Getting by
Didn't you wanna be the magic
When the crowd needs someone to give them a show
Didn't you wanna be the hero
When tragedy needed someone to take control
Did you wanna be the common caterpillar rise into a butterfly
Didn't you wanna see people flourish
Instead of just getting, getting by
Oh, getting by
Oh yeah
