Blueprints for your great escape Stacks in the attic of video games Shark in a jar on the sill Breathing formaldehyde in through his gills Ooh ooh Evenings we spent in July Pointing our telescope up to the sky And when we'd say our prayers every night We'd ask for someone to come down from the lights Take us away Take us away When he'd come home full to the brim You know what I know there's no talking to him ooh Dungeons and dragons ooh Dungeons and dragons Inside the game you're okay Longswords and spellcasting keeps all the bad away And the monsters look how monsters do Not like neighborhood kids with their hands full of rocks for you And not like the grown ups who should be protecting you When he'd come home full to the brim You know what I know there's no talking to him ooh Oh no go hide yourself You know there'll be hell to pay and you're the one paying But soon as you're done we can go back to playing Dungeons and dragons Broken but who knows what for Lean in to listen for a key in the door Broken but who knows what for Lean in to listen for a key in the door Now I come home full to the brim It's hard to not feel like I'm some part of him ooh Oh no can't hide from myself I know there's still hell to pay Now I'm the one paying If we ever got done we could go back to playing Dungeons and dragons ooh Dungeons and dragons
