yea.. those WORDS of a song.. the true art of the musical..
from Batboy, The Musical
Look at all your faces
Children husbands wives
God you�re all so beautiful, I envy you your lives
Going to work building your schools
throwing a football or swimming in pools
Out in the sun living by rules
I could learn how if you teach me the tools
I know I�m strange so help me change please
Let me walk among you
Let me show my face
I could learn to live you with you
I could learn my place
I will a move mountain
Your wish is my command
And someday you may want to shake my hand
I will paint your houses I�ll milk your cows at dawn
I will do your laundry and I will mow your lawn
Let me file your taxes, I am a cpa
And maybe then you�ll shake my hand someday
I could grow a champion rose
Or teach a yoga class
I myself designed these clothes
I can do my part
Must I die then with my nose still pressed against the glass
But if you shake my hand well that�s a start
Yes that�s a start look in your heart
And Let me join the carpool, no! let me drive the car
Let me throw a barbecue or join you at the bar
Come and watch the ball game I�ll bake a pecan pie
And I will shake your hand when you drop by
Oh bring me to your churches and let me look inside
Bring me to your weddings and let me kiss the bride
Thank you all for listening
That�s all I had to say
But please will someone shake my hand
Won�t someone take my hand,
let just one person shake my hand!

One song
Glory
One song
Before I go
Glory
One song to leave behind
Find one song
One last refrain
Glory
From the pretty boy front man
Who wasted opportunity
One song
He had the world at his feet
Glory
In the eyes of a young girl
A young girl
Find glory
Beyond the cheap colored lights
One song
Before the sun sets
Glory - on another empty life
Time flies - time dies
Glory - One blaze of glory
One blaze of glory - glory
Find
Glory
In a song that rings true
Truth like a blazing fire
An eternal flame
Find
One song
A song about love
Glory
From the soul of a young man
A young man
Find
The one song
Before the virus takes hold
Glory
Like a sunset
One song
To redeem this empty life
Time flies
And then - no need to endure anymore
Time dies
