Your head is small, you know that?
Just smaller than a pin
And no matter just how much you try
You'll ever fit it in.
Not smarts and brains,
You've got that all
It's really something else
Imagination- just too big
You and everybody else.
Your thoughts and wants
Your hopes and dreams
They're dying to get out
They kick and punch and hit you
They yell and scream and shout.
There's times when you might let them slip
They giggle and they tease
They tickle at your insides
As you try to get them at ease.
But thoughts and dreams don't do that
See, they never quiet down
They want to show you colors and shapes
They strive to show you sounds.
The more you shove and push them
The more you fight and pout
The more they tickle, laugh, and tease
Come on, just let them out!
Imagine what those thoughts could do
Imagine the world here
So dark and dreary, cold and damp,
It's much worse than you fear.
But your dreams, you know,
The colorful ones
Don't color inside the lines
They're creative, different,
Amazing and new,
They'll make the whole world shine.
Darling, first please realize
Your head is just too small
Your thoughts and dreams
They want to get out
They want to color it all.
