Why
Andrew Garfield
[Jon]
When I was nine
Michael and I
Entered a talent show down at the Y
9 am, went to rehearse 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 grass 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 wеst side at White Plains high
Three o'clock, went to rеhearse in the gym
Mike played doc , who did not sing
Fine with him
We sang Got a 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?
I'm twenty-nine
Michael and I
Live on the west side of Soho, NU
9 AM, 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
And over, and over, and over, and over
Till I get 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
