Lyrics

Where do the dreams of babies go

Questioning the destination of infant dreams, suggesting their purity.

Cause you know they're all so good

Acknowledging the inherent goodness of baby dreams.

And they're also gone so fast

Reflecting on the fleeting nature of these innocent dreams.

Keep all the guns at home

Advocating for keeping weapons at home, promoting safety.

Help keep your momma safe

Encouraging protection of one's mother, recognizing her goodness.

Cause you know she pretty good too

Affirming the goodness of the mother.

Where is the night so warm and so strange

Searching for a warm and strange night where fear is absent.

That no one is afraid

Describing a night where self-fear is nonexistent.

Of themselves

Reflecting on a state where individuals are unafraid of themselves.

Here, pick up, dig, dig out those weeds

Encouraging the removal of negativity and obstacles from one's life.

Out of your happy go lucky fields

Advising to clear challenges from a carefree environment.

Of such predictive thinking

Commenting on the limitations of overly predictable thinking.

Where do the rockets find planets

Pondering the destination of rockets, possibly metaphorical for aspirations.

Where do the rockets find planets

-

Where do the rockets find planets

-

Where are the dreams of the babies going

Repeating the inquiry about the trajectory of baby dreams.

Cause you know they're all gone fast

Reiterating the transitory nature of infant dreams.

Take, take as much as you can

Encouraging seizing opportunities due to their fleeting nature.

Cause you know it's going so fast

Highlighting the rapid pace of life and experiences.

And you know it's so good

Acknowledging the swift passing and inherent goodness of life's moments.

Where are the man that mounted so brave

Raising questions about courageous individuals and potential dangers.

That they do not explode over everyone

-

Here, pick up, dig, dig out those weeds

Reiterating the need to remove negativity from one's surroundings.

Out of your happy go lucky fields

Linking the concept of predictive thinking to a carefree environment.

Of such predictive thinking

Commenting on the limitations of overly predictable thinking (repeated).

Where do the rockets find planets

Revisiting the metaphor of rockets searching for destinations.

Where do the rockets find planets

-

Keep your guns at home

Reiterating the call to keep weapons at home for safety.

Keep your guns at home

-

Help keep your momma safe

Emphasizing the need to protect and recognize the goodness of mothers.

You know she's all good too

-

She's pretty good

-

Where are all the dreams of babies going

Repeating the query about the destination of baby dreams.

Did you know they're all good

Confirming the inherent goodness of infant dreams.
