lirik lagu why (remastered) – jonathan larson
[jon]
when i was nine
michael and i
entered a talent show down at the y
9 a.m. went to rehe-rs- by some stairs
mike couldn’t sing
but i said, “no one cares”
we sang ‘yellow bird’ and ”let’s go fly a kite’
over and over and over
’til we got it right
when we emerged from the y.m.c.a
three o’clock sun had made the gr-ss hay
i thought
hey, what a way to spend a day
hey, what a way to spend a day
i make a vow
right here and now
i’m gonna spend my time this way
when i was sixteen
michael and i
got parts in ‘west side’ at white plains high
three o’clock went to rehe-rs- in the gym
mike played “doc”, who didn’t sing
fine with him
we sang, “got a rocket in your pocket” and “the jets are gonna have their day, tonight”
over and over and over
’til we got it right
when we emerged, wiped out by that play
nine o’clock, stars and moon lit the way
i thought
hey, what a way to spend a day
hey, what a way to spend a day
i made a vow
i wonder now
am i cut out to spend my time this way?
with only so much time to spend
don’t wanna waste the time i’m given
“have it all, play the game” – some recommend
i’m afraid it just might be time to give in…
i’m twenty-nine
michael and i
live on the west side of soho, n.y
9 a.m
i write a lyric or two
mike sings his songs now on mad avenue
i sing, “come to your senses
defenses are not the way to go”
over and over and over
’til i got it right
when i emerge from b minor or a
five o’clock, diner calls, “i’m on my way”
i think
hey, what a way to spend a day
hey, what a way to spend a day
i make a vow
right here and now
i’m gonna spend my time this way
i’m gonna spend my time this way…
