Untitled Opening Number Lyrics - Title Of Show Soundtrack

JEFF
A, D, D, D, D, F sharp, A
Will be the first notes of our show

HUNTER
We’ll start with the seed of an idea

BOTH
Then plant it on a paper
With a Dixon Ticonderoga
And then watch it sprout into a musical
And then we’ll help to make it grow….
Bigger

Nothing guarantees it will stand out
And its future is unknown

JEFF
So in the meantime we will schedule
A lot of meetings in Hell’s Kitchen

HUNTER
To collaborate in my living room

BOTH
But we can’t do it all alone

HEIDI AND SUSAN
So

JEFF AND HUNTER/ HEIDI AND SUSAN
We’ll get together all our friends/ Ahh…
And exploit all of their talents/ Ahh…
We’ll explore the latest trends/ Ahh…
And avoid them when we balance the/ Ahh…

JEFF AND HUNTER

JEFF, HEIDI, AND SUSAN
Ahh…

HUNTER/ JEFF, HEIDI, AND SUSAN

What we’ve seen and heard before/ Ooo…
And if Bartock’s here, he’ll appreciate/ Ooo…
If we’re inventive with the score/ Ooo…

ALL
So we’ll put in a syncopation
And we’ll add a quarter… note
And we’ll softly start the coda from a very tiny point
And then we’ll get a little louder to further emphasize the point
And then we’ll cross downstage to argue

JEFF AND SUSAN
And now we yell in fortissimo…

HUNTER
Yell in fortissimo…

HEIDI
Yell in fortissimo…

ALL
(Fortissim)o…oh….
It’s the opening song
It doesn’t have a title, no!
And it’s not very long
But it’s the starting point of our musical
And here’s the first scene of our musical
