Before go on to the lyrics, I should let you know that a few songs have been left out. they are: "Hello Twelve, Hello Thirteen Hello Love", this is actually an awsome song, but it is very long and multi-part and therefore I could not think of a way to type it out and have it make sense. And "Dance Ten Looks Three", one of my favorite songs in the entire show, left out here only because of content ,those of you who know the show will know what I am talking about. I am determined to run a completely kid safe site..if you want the lyrics to this one just e-mail me and I will gladly oblige!:)
NOTHING
Spoken: I'm so excited because I get to go to the
High School of Performing Arts!I mean I was dying
To be a serious actress..anyway, it's the first
day of acting class and we're in the auditorium
And the teacher Mr Carp puts us all up on the stage with our legs around everybody.
One in back of the other and he says:
"Ok, we're gonna do improvisation, now you're on
A bobsled and it's snowing out, and it's cold
Ok, now ..go"
Sung:
Everyday, for a week we would try to feel the motion
Feel the motion down the hill
Everyday, for a week we would try to hear the wind rush
Hear the wind rush, feel the chill
And I dug right down to the bottom of my soul
To see what I had inside
Yes I dug right down to the bottom of my soul
And I tried , I tried
Spoken:
And everybody's going "Swish, swish! I feel the cold!"
"I feel the snow! I feel the air!"
And Mr. Carp comes over to me and he says:
"Ok Mirallis, what did you feel?"
Sung:
And I said "Nothing!"
"I'm feeling nothing!"
And he said nothing could get a girl transferred!
They all felt something
But I felt nothing
Except a feeling that this nonsense was absurd!
Spoken:
And so I said to myself "Hey it's only the first week!
Maybe it's genetic! They don't have bobsleds in San Juan!"
Sung:
Second week more advanced and we had to be a table
Be a sports car
Ice cream cone!
Mr. Carp he would say "Very good..except Mirallis!
Try Mirallis, all alone!"
And I dug right down to the bottom of my soul
To see how an ice cream felt
Yes I dug right down to the bottom of my soul
And I tried to melt!
And the kids yelled "NOTHING!"
They called me nothing
And Carp allowed it which really makes me burn
They were so helpful
They called me hopeless
Until I really didn't know where else to turn
Went to church, praying "Santa Maira, send me guidance!"
"Send me guidance", on my knees!
Went to church praying "Sant Maria help me feel it!
Help me feel it , Pretty Please!"
And a voice from down in the bottom of my soul
Came up to the top of my head
Yes a voice from down in the bottom of my soul
Here is what it said!
"This man is nothing! This course is nothing!
If you want something go find a better class
And when you find one! You'll be an actress"
And I assure you that's what finally came to pass
Six months later I heard that Carp had died
And I dug right down to the bottom of my soul
And cried
Cause I felt...
nothing....
THE MUSIC AND THE MIRROR
Give me somebody to dance for
Give me somebody to show
Let me wake up in the morning to find I have
Somewhere exciting to go!
Give me somebody to dance with
Give me a place to fit in!
Help me return to the world of the living
By showing me how to begin!
Play me the music
Give me the chance to come through
All I ever needed was the music and the mirror
And the chance to dance for you
Give me a job and you instantly get me involved
If you give me a job all the rest of the crap will get solved
Put me to work you would think that by now I'm allowed
I'll do you proud
Throw me a rope to grab onto ,
Help me to prove that I'm strong
Give me the chance to look forward to saying
Hey listen they're playin' my song!
Play me the music
Give me the chance to come through
All I ever needed was the music and the mirror
And the chance to dance!!

WHAT I DID FOR LOVE
Kiss today goodbye..
The sweetness and the sorrow,
Wish me luck , the same to you
But I can't regret what I did for love
What I did for love
Look my eyes are dry
The gift was ours to borrow
It's as if we always knew
And I won't forget what I did for love
What I did for love
Gone, love is never gone
As we travel on
Love's what we remember
Kiss today goodbye
And point me toward tommorrow!
We did what we had to do!
Won't forget , can't regret what I did
For love!
What I did for love
What I did for
Love....
