listen to the chorus, it's different. it's not:
"That's when the giant dragon jumped over the hill, and he said..."
it's:
"That's when this fearless phrase came into my head, and I said..."

i did not know this. sorry, a bit random.

Yes. That was on a short three-show tour in California, which was a studio break during the "Room Noises" era. They only played that song that way one more time (other than the mini-tour), which was a show at Brewtones in Tyler, TX.

The lyrics were different for a while because they were getting flack for "childish" elements like dragons and such. They missed the dragon, so he came back for good. Smile

Golly, Poster


Yeah, that was pretty trippy... I wonder around what year they changed that. Maybe Boyd or Kim would know?

And I can't tell from the lighting whether Stacy was in her dark haired phase or blonde. I think it was dark because Sherri had her blond faux hawk ( I know it's weird that I characterize about what year it was by their hairdos but doesn't everyone? Laughing )

That was 2004. The lyrics were as they are now before then. So they changed for less than a year.

Glad that change didn't stick, and they said "no, no, no, no..." to the lyric change. Laughing I mean, come on! The dragon MAKES this song.

Yeah. That dragon is pretty awesome in my head. And it's a very kindly round dragon.

I always imagine him dancing like that WB frog holding a shield like a hat and a spear as a cane as he kicks through a mob of orcs while singing "no, no, no, no, no, no way sir, no, no, no, no, no, not today sir, you won't surround me, you can't surround us." Very Happy

And it goes a lil sumptin like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LuaV_Ql9v6s
