Author's Notes: Sorry this has been coming in spurts…I had more free time at the beginning of the school year and now I'm bogged down with work, particularly American History, and now our school is making a TV show and I'm on the script production crew (how cool is that!) so I'll be working with that a lot. Maybe I'll post some of the stuff I come up with to see what kind of feedback there is. Anyway, this is one of the last songs. There is at least one more after this, maybe two…I haven't decided yet. I'm still accepting ideas for another Musical-Bandfic, so if you have any suggestions, leave them in your review!
What you Play
Flute: Don't breathe too deep
Don't play all day
Dive in to drills
March the other way
That drip of worth
That pint of fame
Leads the way
Just play the game
You're playing in the Marching Band
At the beginning of the school year
You're playing in the Marching Band
Where you're marching everyday
And when you're playing in the Marching Band
At the beginning of the school year
You're what you play
Trumpet: The drill maker cannot see
And the drum major cannot hear
Yet I see drill sheets everywhere
And the drum beats in my ear
Just straighten your shoulders
Don't put your instrument down
Just don't let go
Or you may drown
Trombone: You're playing in the Marching Band
At the beginning of the school year
You're playing in the marching band
School pride we must display
And when you're playing in the Marching Band
At the beginning of the school year
You're what you play
So I play not a note
I escape and ape this song
I am not an outcast-I belong
(In Canon-listen to the song, especially for this part)
Percussion & Band Front: What was it about that night
Perfection, in a dissenting age
For once the mistakes turned into rights
For once I could have took the stage
Drum Majors: (simultaneously)
(1): Hey there, I hear you, I hear it, I see it, I see it, my drill!
(2): Hey you, I see you, I see it, I hear it, I hear it, my song!
(1): Someone help, show me the score, I need to conduct it my own way, in four!
(2): One song glory, under the skies!
Clarinet: Staying in the Marching Band
During the whole school year
We're staying in the Marching Band
To make our presence known
And when you're staying in the Marching Band
During the whole school year
You're not alone
I'm not alone
All: You're not alone
(Strike pose!)
