I'll March for You
Author's Notes: Sorry it took so long (and I was on a roll too…). Pit Orchestra sucked the life out of me and band stuff…so yeah. And I'm starting work, but it's a seasonal thing, so it will probably only be like a month and a half. I'll try and update. I wanted to do a parody of "Santa Fe", since it's a really fun song, but I had such a hard time just trying to get the first stanza with all the rhythms. I just couldn't capture the uniqueness of the song with one of my own, so I'm skipping right to "I'll Cover You". Oh, and you should be grateful for this one since I'm skipping doing active reading AND going to a band concert of my eighth grade friends, and potentially blowing my chances of an A in World Cultures because I'm not doing my homework.
Leadership: March in my band
I'll be your leader
Just pay me back
With one thousand high-steps
Come to practice, and I'll march with you
Rookie: Open the door
I'll be a marcher
Don't got much knowledge
Of music and beat
But high-steps I can learn
I'll be there, and I'll march for you
Both: I think they meant it
When they said you'd enjoy band
Now I know you can hate it,
But I'm glad I joined this band
I march, oh I march
Leadership: Just lift your foot
Then bring your knees up
Rookie: Wherever, whatever, I'll try and march
You lead me through, I'll try my hardest
Leadership: You do your best,
And I won't be too harsh
Both: I think they meant it
When they said you'd enjoy band
Now I know you can hate it,
But I'm glad I joined this band
I march
All my life
I've longed to discover something
As fun as this is
(Lines are simultaneous)
Rookie: So with a thousand good high-steps
I'll march for you
Leadership: From July to September
Rookie: With a thousand good high-steps
I'll march for you
Leadership: You'll have to remember
With a thousand good high-steps
I'll march for you
Rookie: Whether we've lost or have won
Leadership: With a thousand good high-steps
I'll march for you
Rookie: When the season is done
Both: Oh marcher, I'll march for you
Oh marcher, I'll march for you
