gaby alter, tommy newman & mark allen - if i had a stage lyrics

[mr. h+rnsby]
never thought back when i was a kid in high school
i’d grow up to be a teacher—
god, i hated teachers
see, i thought back when i was a kid in high school
i’d grow up to write a symphony
but i never wrote a symphony
i’ve got students picking noses
got a classroom with no chairs
the profession that i chose is just a mess
and no one cares

but if i had a stage, i’d fill it with an orchestra
sixteen violins and four bassoons
and they’d play me a symphony
that only i could write!
if i had a stage
i could step into the light

never thought back when i was a kid in college
i’d give up the oboe—god, i loved my oboe
see, i thought back when i was a kid in collеge
i would teach just for a little whilе
but it’s been more than a little while
the ceiling has been leaking
in the band room twenty years
the clarinets keep squeaking
while my passion disappears
but if i had a stage
the crowds would flock to see me
b+tton+up tuxedo, cuff links on the sleeve
and when i’d spread my arms
the world would start to spin!
if i had a stage
if i had a stage!

somewhere there’s a stage
waiting to be conquered
dusty from the years
of heartache and regret
as long as i can hear the music
maybe there’s still time to write my page
somewhere on a stage
somewhere on a stage
