steve margoshes – teacher’s argument (american cast) كلمات اغاني

[miss bell]
artists are special celestial fools
first with the talent for breaking the rules
unfit for confinement in cubicle schools!
artists are special!

[miss sherman]
artists are people not primitive fools
they learn what to do before breaking the rules
they know that the brain is the finest of tools!
artists are people!

[miss bell and miss sherman]
whether in theatre, or music, or dance
they have to be given the chance

[miss bell]
to fly by the seat of their pants!

[miss sherman]
to develop their minds!

[miss bell and miss sherman]
and be nurtured like plants!

[miss sherman]
artists are part of the same human race
as everyone else in the same bl–dy place!
you learn to survive or you fall on your face!
artist or not!
artist or not!
(spoken)
greta, you know that 90% of these kids will never make a living in the arts. we have to prepare them for life. or what’s tyrone gonna do if he can’t make it as a dancer? mop floors?

[miss bell, spoken]
tyrone will make it!
(sung)
i’ve seen them come and go for all these years
kids with no talent for anything more than carrying spears
another year, another shipment
lacking the drive or the style or the basic equipment
this one is different
and i can see me there
unremarkable me
the kid in the ballet cl-ss
the princess i wanted to be
tutu and pointe shoes
hair in a bun
completely unnoticed
as if i were no one
this one is different i tell you!
this one can dance!
this one is different i tell you!
give him a chance!
(spoken)
tyrone will make it, he will!

[miss sherman, spoken]
fine, and i wish him luck. but this is an academic inst-tution with academic standards! oh i know, we’re the fame high school now!
ever since that movie came out they come here expecting to become stars, and you people think you run the show here!
oh, teach them to perform and who cares if they can read or write?
what do they have to write, anyway?
as long as they can sign their name on a contract!

[miss bell, spoken]
and who are you?
defender of the true faith?

[miss sherman, spoken]
exactly!
(sung)
what did they tell me when i was a girl?
learn!
day after day when i was a girl?
learn!
the land of dreams waits over the meadow
if you can find a way
out of the ghetto
learn! learn!
put your faith in books
that will protect you
put your faith in books
and a mind of your own
neither charm or looks
will make them respect you
you must learn to stand!
you must learn to stand alone!

[miss bell]
this one is different!

[miss sherman]
put your faith in books!

[miss bell]
this one can dance!

[miss sherman]
put your faith in books!

[miss bell]
artists are special!

[miss sherman]
artists are people!

[miss bell and miss sherman]
this one must have a chance
this one must have a chance!
