I’m not talking about a princess with no sense Who marries a meaningless prince Rainbows appearing when you least expect it Asking for directions but they never direct it Royalty with a crystal crown Going up but you never look down Life is full of ups and downs Twisting, turning all around You can hear a nightingale Life is like a fairytale Poison apples, magic spells Evil witches, wishing wells Rotten eggs, being kind When you can’t make up your mind Birthday parties, chocolate cakes PB and J, milkshakes Life is full of ups and downs Twisting, turning all around You can hear a nightingale Life is like a fairytale Life is like a fairytale Life is like a fairytale Life is like a fairytale Life is like a fairytale…

I’m an eruption! Eruption, eruption, eruption, eruption, eruption! (Repeat chorus) Can’t you see I’m flyin’ high! Eruption!

You're on a stage and you don't know what to do It's like something important fell out of you You forget all your lines You feel frozen in time You don't know what to do You could be a shooting star You know what to do Just remember you could rock the stage Like a shooting star Doesn't matter who you are Doesn't matter who you are Doesn't matter who you Don't worry about it Just close your eyes Deep down inside you You know it's right Make your move It's all up to you You are a shooting star Now you are a shooting star Now you know who you are It doesn't matter who you are It doesn't matter It doesn't matter Because you are a shooting star!

Singing (repeat all twice): Space has a power point, helping everything live. Space has a power point, exactly where the Phoenixes live! Aliens, Phoenixes, Robots Live everywhere around the power point Space has a power point, helping everything live. Space has a power point, exactly where the Phoenixes live! Ice Phoenix, Air Phoenix, Water Phoenix, & Fire Phoenix!

This is what we have to say about Girls Rock NC! Campers, staff, all the friends I know All of us to camp, come on let’s go! Let’s learn to play music, guitars learn to strum Coming to the light Camp comes close I’ll run til the sun comes up I’ll run til the sun comes up I’ll run to the open of the winds I will run when the sun comes down In the sun and the moon I will go to the end of the night I will go to the end of the night We have one more thing to say before we go… What’s your instrument? What’s your instrument? What’s your instrument? It’s my voice! What’s your instrument? What’s your instrument? What’s your instrument? It’s my voice!

about

This album features bands from Week 1 (June 17-21) of our 2019 summer camps! These rising 2nd through 4th graders wrote their songs themselves over a single week of music, confidence-building, social justice education, and fun.

This album is free to listen to online, and can be downloaded for free! However, we get a limited number of free downloads each month. **If you are able,** and if you download a track or album, please consider donating a dollar or two through our Bandcamp. Your donation will help make free downloads available to other families, and will go towards providing more amazing programming for young people in the Triangle!
