## Lyrics

[round 1]

**[Horse]**
You can all be fearless too
You can fight for yourselves
You're all right by yourselves
'Cause you know
Only you can protect
You
[round 2]

We are all just
Just fragile things
Soft and small
And haven't been here before
But stay close to me and I
Will protect you | **[Horse]**
You can all
Be fearless too
You can fight for yourselves
You're all right by yourselves
'Cause you know only you

[round 3]

Breathe in a bag, breathe in a bag
You inhale, you exhale
My name is Glendale
Breathe in a bag, breathe in a bag
You inhale, you exhale
My name is Glendale [repeat a third time] | **[Wammawink]**
We are all just
Just fragile things
Soft and small
And haven't been here before
But stay close to me and I
Will protect you | **[Horse]**
You can all
Be fearless too
You can fight for yourselves
You're all right by yourselves
'Cause you know only you

[round 4]

Please, sir
I'm as curious can be, sir
Won't you stop and chat with me for a minute
Can you teach me to be a smarter boy?
**[Zulius]**
I don't know, I don't know
I don't know, I don't know him
**[Ched]**
And if I wanna be a Tulip Stepping Cha... | **[Glendale]**
Breathe in a bag, breathe in a bag
You inhale, you exhale
My name is Glendale
Breathe in a bag, breathe in a bag
You inhale, you exhale
My name is Glendale
Breathe in a bag, breathe in a bag
You inhale, you exhale
My name is Glendale | **[Wammawink]**
We are all just
Just fragile things
Soft and small
And haven't been here before
But stay close to me and I
Will protect you

You can all
Be fearless too
You can fight for yourselves
You're all right by yourselves
'Cause you know only you
Can protect you

[Ched's verse crosses over two rounds]
**[Ched]**
And if I wanna be a
Tulip Stepping Champion
Why can't I be one?
[round 5]

...mpion
Why can't I be one? | **[Durpleton]**
Please, sir
I'm as curious can be, sir | **[Zulius]**
I don't know, I don't know
I don't know, I don't know him | **[Glendale]**
Breathe in a bag, breathe in a bag
You inhale, you exhale | **[Wammawink]**
We are all just
Just fragile things | **[Horse]**
You can all

Won't you stop and chat with me for a minute, can you teach me to be a smarter boy?
**[Zulius]**
I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know him | **[Glendale]**
My name is Glendale
Breathe in a bag, breathe in a bag
Soft and small
And haven't been here before
You can fight for yourselves
You're all right by yourselves

You inhale, you exhale, my name is Glendale | **[Wammawink]**
But stay close to me and I | **[Horse]**

Will protect you | **[Horse]**
