lirik lagu raúl esparza - why
when i was nine
michael and i
entered a talent show down at the y
nine 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
till we got it right
when we emerged from the ymca
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, “gotta rocket in your pocket”
and “the jets are gonna have their day – tonight”
over and over and over
till 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 may be time to give in
i’m twenty-nine
michael and i
live on the west side of soho, n.y
nine a.m
i write a lyric or two
mike sings his song now on mad avenue
i sing, “come to your senses
defenses are not the way to go”
over and over and over
till 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
