original theater cast of rogers: the musical - i want you lyrics

[rogers]
“i want you”, it says on the front page
it’s time for boys to come of age
i want you, there’s a war we gotta wage
every able+bodied man avail
well, i’m bodied, but not able
i don’t need to write the tale
just want a seat at the table
come on sam, tell me is it true?
i want you, yah, but not

[rogers, spoken]
give me a chance, doc
i promise you won’t regret it

[rogers]
i got heart, though i might be small in stature
my physique, well it’s always met with laughter
i got smarts, but maybe not the kind you’re after
like iq
even when i’m a buck eleven
i’ve got asked by kenny to dance
i’d be in one+oh+seventh heaven
all i need is just one chance
what’s a guy to do when “i want you” doesn’t mean you
why can’t they see that i would make a difference?
i’d rise up tall and look ‘em in the eye
why can’t i be there to fight injustice?
lend a hand while i stand up for the little guy
if they only knew everything i’m made of
then they’d know it’s true, there’s nothing i’m afraid of
but what’s a guy to do when “i want you” doesn’t mean?

i should be across the ocean
hearing bugles, playing “taps”
not pulling rusty wagons
filled so high with scr+ps
these doctors think i’m crazy
but they’re all full of terrible advice

[rogers, spoken]
come on, doc
(sung)
what do you say?
there’s gotta be a way
(spoken)
you know, i could do this all day!

[rogers]
‘cause somehow, someday
somewhere, some way
4+f becomes 1+a
then you’ll see that i will make a difference
i’ll rise up tall and look ‘em in the eye
and there i’ll be to fight against injustice
lend a hand and stand up for the little guy
and then i’ll show you everything i’m made of
and then you’ll know there’s nothing i’m afraid of

you point and you say “i want you”
but i don’t believe that it’s true
now that i can see it seems that you agree
“i want you” doesn’t actually mean me
