They told her she was living in a fantasy
She didn’t mind, even though they were so mean
Blue Galaxy, Blue Galaxy
Yeah, she knows the way
Blue Galaxy, Blue Galaxy
Far far away
She was pushed around
But that never got her down
She was in her fantasy
Blue Galaxy
Blue Galaxy, Blue Galaxy
Yeah, she knows the way
Blue Galaxy, Blue Galaxy
Far far away
Blue Galaxy, Blue Galaxy
The perfect place to stay!
Aliens are coming? Aliens are coming!

We are all different
But some ways the same
Sassy or curious
We do our own thang
(REPEAT)
WE DO OUR OWN THANG! (x4)
We are all different
But some ways the same
Unique or iridescent
Like a flower in the rain
WE DO OUR OWN THANG! (x4)
Red!
Green!
Pink!
Orange!
Blue!
PURPLE!

What is going on?
All of a sudden
We’re smoking hot
Flames everywhere
We’re already black
And we don’t need more
Because…
(PRE-CHORUS)
We are on fire
And we don’t even care
Flames are burning
Our sprinkle hair
We’re black on the inside
But gold on the outside
There are flames in our eyes
Because we don’t want to die
(CHORUS)
We were happy
We were sad
We were angry and mad
We were lumpy
We were grumpy
We were hazy and dazy
Because…
Birthday cake
Has way too many candles
Mint isn’t so cool now
Chocolate is melting fast
We’re running around
And screaming too much
Because....
(PRE-CHORUS)
(CHORUS) x2

(VERSE)
I had a dream as a kid
The world would be so great
But then reality hit
And it was full of hate
(CHORUS)
Forget what you’ve been taught
It's time that you thought
From your heart
(VERSE)
There’s always something people can use against you
But when they have a leader to teach them the same
He’s got a character that could use some change
So I’m not sure if I can blame
(CHORUS)
Forget what you’ve been taught
It’s time that you thought from your heart (x2)
The world needs to change NOW!
El mundo nesesita cambiar ahora!

We don’t need men
Just walk away
You can’t ignore us
We have things to say
Don’t care what you think
You stink!
Boss us around?
Turn you upside down!
We don’t judge
We accept them all
Not a fragile flower
We have the power!
How hot?
Red hot!
(x4)

The Midway- Perdida Aqui

Perdida aqui
Por siempre en el desierto
En la carretera infinita
Como la luz del sol
(x2)
I’m on a journey on an infinite road
It started out sunny but it took a turn
I’m wondering if I’ll ever make it home
I can’t seem to stop this yellow line burn
(BRIDGE)
Through the struggles of this journey
If you can’t fly then run or walk
Persevere, you’ll make it through
Every problem has a solution!

Calling Shotgun- Pilot

I lie awake at night wishing I could hold a single fight
against the wealthy, against the healthy, give me life
My freedom feels oppressive
My being is offensive
I'm just being defensive
against the phobic and aggressive
Can't feel my feet on the ground
and I'm going down
Just like the world broke around me
In theory, in practice, the concept’s less tragic
The fear of unknown, it perpetuates a magic
Cursed is the day
No matter what you say
cause the fears that you thought (felt) real
well they can't get you anyway
Can't feel my feet on the ground
and I'm going down
Just like the world broke around me
In theory, in practice, the concept’s less tragic

Summer used to be a bore
Couldn’t take it anymore
Then camp week came
And all I wanted was more, more, more MORE!
Girls Rock! Girls Rock!
Girls Rock Grand Rapids!
(repeat)
Girls play the bass
Guitar is in your face
Beats on the drums
Keys that make you hum, hum, hum HUM!
Girls Rock! Girls Rock!
Girls Rock Grand Rapids!
(repeat 2x)
