Butterfly Trapped In a Phone Booth

there's a little butterfly trapped in a phone booth   
there's a little butterfly trapped in a phone booth   
there's a little butterfly trapped in a phone booth   
ain't that just a little bit too much like all our lives?

just on the other side of the glass the sky goes on forever  
just on the other side of the glass the sky goes on forever    
just on the other side of the glass the sky goes on forever    
so the little butterfly keeps on struggling to be free          

people outside passing by on their way to here and there    
people outside passing by on their way to here and there  
people outside passing by on their way to here and there  
they don't notice, they don't see no little butterfly    

you can flap your little wings, flap your wings forever      
you can flap your little wings, flap your wings forever 
you can flap your little wings, flap your wings forever 
but it's really only pure dumb luck that'll set you free

there's a little butterfly trapped in a phone booth   
there's a little butterfly trapped in a phone booth   
there's a little butterfly trapped in a phone booth   
ain't that just a little bit too much like all our lives?
