Six Hours

Parody of Evanescence's "Imaginary"

((La la la la region tryouts

La la la la region tryouts))

I linger in the doorway

With the freshmen screaming

Monitors calling my name

Must I stay

Where the seniors snigger at me

Where the juniors as they're playing miss the pitches

In the room at region tryouts

With upperclassmen that can't play

I sit in boredom for six hours

And watch my social life go down the drain

Don't say I'm out of tune

With this wooden Buffet and my ghetto reed

I know well how concert D should sound in the song

It's not my fault that my pitch is always off

In the room at region tryouts

With upperclassmen that can't play

I sit in boredom for six hours

And watch my social life go down the drain

Preoccupied by the sound of my tuning

Cannot stop for a fear of lower scores

Oh how I long to be first chair region

The lost dream after my turn in round one

In the room at region tryouts

With upperclassmen that can't play

I sit in boredom for six hours

And watch my social life go down the drain

((La la la la region tryouts

La la la la region tryouts))

Heh. High school region… much fun… **BLINK** Yeah, well… Honestly? Phase one ((elimination round)) took six hours… and they had even split Clarinets into three rooms! Sigh. I made it to phase two, and that one room took at least five hours… and I get to go for three more years! Yay!
