Bluebird Tightrope

Make them suffer, fall in love Words dripping with emotion You're the singer....alchemist Words and Music are your potion Make them cry, laugh, and sing Make them react to every line Stir the pot some....Alchemist On a tightrope made of rhyme One chance is all you get Working without a net No one will hear you fall You're tightrope is made of words On stage at the Bluebird You've only one chance...that's all Write your thoughts out, share your dreams Do it in three four time Put it to music, bring them along On your musical tightrope line Go out and sell yourself, nightly And make them feel what is inside Remember, you're up on a tightrope And each night, is a completely new ride One chance is all you get Working without a net No one will hear you fall You're tightrope is made of words On stage at the Bluebird You've only one chance...that's all There's no support but words and music At the Bluebird, you're on your own Make them a part of you, do the best you can do Make them all family, sing to them each...alone Don't forget don't look down, just focus on the light Come on now, Alchemist, stir the pot some more Make them all cry again, make them remember when Sing from the tightrope and they'll fall in love once more One chance is all you get Working without a net No one will hear you fall You're tightrope is made of words On stage at the Bluebird You've only one chance...that's all
