jeremy jordan - history lyrics

[brom, spoken]
in conclusion while the battle of pelham was one of the less bl++dy skirmishes of the revolutionary war, it just goes to show that even in 1776 you had to watch your ass in the bronx
(sung)
okay so hey maybe it’s not nyu
sure but so what sometimes you have to make do
something somehow somewhere could someday come through for me for us
maybe i don’t teach at an ivy league school
maybe i won’t reach a position that cool
maybe this is it
but i’m n0body’s fool i’m trying
plus she never promised me all of her heart
she only promised till death do us part
and i still love her she’s so unhappy and i can see it and it upsets me and she starts crying and i can’t think of anything to say and so i hide away inside history
clear consistent history
hate resistant history
staggeringly vast
no guessing games
facts and figures
dates and names
written down in history
records of the past
i can’t be that hero who’ll whisk her away
just plant me at home and its doubtful i’d stray
she can’t see that sometimes you have to just stay slow and low+key
what’s so wrong with that?
what’s so wrong with with this town?
what’s so wrong with kat?
why that permanent frown?
why’d she rather chat with that teacher from down in nyc
in her he stirs something latent it seems
reviving all of her juvenile dreams
i used to have that
i used to dream too
i used to fear i would end up here teaching history
wanted to be somebody
never thought i’d fail
but i make the best of it
just have to shake the rest of it
can’t rewrite the history
can’t erase the trail
bad enough to watch as she
tries to solve the mystery
of our tragic history
a pathetic tale
