danny abosch, john maclay - the legend lyrics

Loading...

[ms. walker]
the legend begins at this very school
four score minus seven years ago
legend has it that there once was a boy
who found a script in the bas+m+nt below

the play was called ‘the phantom’
it was the scariest of shows
is that how it started? no one knows
but that’s how the legend goes

[tina]
legend has it the boy showed his teacher
and the story captured her soul
she vowed the school would perform it
with thе boy in the title role

but bеfore the play could open
a disaster forced it to close
is that the truth? well, there are those
who say that’s how the legend goes

[ms. walker]
it’s a story, nothing more
just the stuff of legend and lore
the kind that always follows
scary shows
some swear it with conviction
others say it’s only fiction
just a rumor, but a rumor always grows
and that’s how the legend goes

ahhh, legend has it that when abigail applied for funds
the princ+p+l refused to grant ’em
but grandmother bravely held her ground
resolved to produce ‘the phantom’

but on the night the play was to open
well, the curtain never rose
what happened next, i can’t disclose
but that’s how the legend goes

[brooke]
you can’t end the story there!

[zeke]
yeah, tell us! what happened next?

[ms. walker]
i’m not sure i should

[tina]
well if you won’t tell them, i will
the boy playing ‘phantom’ had vanished
they searched, but he couldn’t be found
and when ms. walker tried to make an announcement
she was stopped by a frightening sound:

the most terrible scream rang out
every face in the audience froze
was it him? well, no one really knows
but that’s how the legend goes

[ms. walker]
the princ+p+l closed the production
and demanded the script’s destruction
but one survived, right underneath his nose

and though it was forbidden
ms. walker kept it hidden
and when she died, it was found beside a mask and rose
or so, the legend goes

[tina]
mrs. walker, tell them the really scary part. about the boy

[ms. walker]
oh, i don’t know
just remember
it’s a story nothing more
just the stuff of legend and lore
but some say his soul remains here in repose
[tina]
now, he haunts the school where he vanished
to make sure the play stays banished

[ms. walker]
that’s why some say it’s cursed, this play i chose

[zeke]
is it true?

[ms. walker]
well, i suppose
that no one knows
not even those
that swear that
that’s how the legend

[ms. walker/tina] that’s how the legend
that’s how the legend goes
