The Crowd Scene
They say I can't act
they say I can't dance.
They say I can't sing
but teacher won't give me a chance.
So I'm in the crowd scene again.
I asked to be a shepherd,
I begged to be a king.
I said that I'd play any part,
any persons, any thing!
But I'm in the crowd scene again.
I wanted to be an angel
but all of Mum's sheets were blue.
I even asked to be Joseph
but Mary said, "Ugh, not you.."
So I'm in the crowd scene again.
I open and close my mouth,
teacher told me not to sing.
I move from place to place
and I watch and learn everything.
So if ever someone is absent,
I'll know it all by heart.
That's when I'll step from the crowd scene
to play my proper part.
