Hello, everyone, I’m the town fool!
Here for your amusement and nothing more
I’m absolutely nothing but a tool
Nothing but laughs to my core

The pain is nothing but a trick
I’ll make it disappear in a flash
An array of jokes, ready to pick
Simply pay me in laughs, no credit or cash

What do you call a boomerang that doesn’t return? A stick!
See you liked that one!
My jokes are all short and quick!
We’re here to have some fun!

So wipe those tears from your eyes
Cause I’m here to see your smile
Now please don’t tell lies
But can that stretch for a mile??

Now let’s chase that sad away
Shove it into a corner and say goodbye
Let’s just be happy, what do ya say?
Let’s not keep joy on standby

No pain no gain is an understatement

Pushups are a form of punishment

You respect your captains every single day

And trust your choreographer to lead the way

You leave the field sweating, makeup in your eyes

A fire burning in your heart... and in your thighs

Practice every day, dripping with sweat

That six-foot pole no longer a threat

Working hard to be the best

Every weekend is your test  

You gain new family and friends

With each other till the very end

Bonds that last all year

People to project all your fears

This is where you throw it all down

Because in the band, you're the crown

You make the show

And you need to know

To hold your head up high

And don't you dare be shy

Cause the countless hours you have spent

Can't be bought with any cent

Cause Denise's bleeding hands

And Beave's constant demands

Always changing

Always rearranging

Working hard to make the show great

Making sure to keep your posture straight

This. Is. Colorguard.

Which will always have a place in my heart

I  told you it was fragile and needed lots of care

I told you it that you must always be kind and fair

I told you i's like a child, naive and full of love

I told you it was shy and needs a little shove

I told you not to push because it's on its last legs

I told you to pay attention because it begs and begs

I told you to promise to never ever leave

Because my heart breaks when I wear it on my sleeve

Have you ever thought of me as more than a friend?

Have you ever lost sleep, wishing you had the courage to ask me out?

Have you ever wrote my name on a slip of paper for no reason?

Have you ever tried to read a book but couldn't focus because I smiled at you that day?

Have you ever sighed at the sound of my laughter?

Have you ever smiled to yourself because I laughed at your joke?

Have you ever blushed at the thought of holding my hand?

Have you ever pretended to read so you can stare at me?

Have you ever worried that if I figured out how you felt about me then our friendship would be ruined?

Have you ever not told your best friend exactly how much you like me?

Have you ever hated your friend because they teased you about your feelings for me?

Have you ever thought of me when couples walk down the street together?

Have you ever blushed when I accidently touch your hand?

Have you ever frowned because you're friends said that I didn't like you?

Have you ever cried because you thought it was true?

Have you ever stared at my ex and wondered why I went out with them and not you?

Have you ever thought of changing who you are so I would like you?

Have you ever wished that you could just grab me, kiss me and have me kiss back?

Have you ever wanted to hold my hand because I seemed sad but were too scared to actually grab it?

If you have ever done any of these then we are the same.

Please tell me if you've done any of these.

I want to know if we are the same.

Have you, ever?

Sometimes I have these thoughts

They cause my stomach to tie up in knots

They tend to whisper, hidden in the seems

But when I'm alone they scream

Oh they scream

They scream and they scream and they scream

Engulfing me in their truth or their lies

The lies, oh the lies that it cries

They scream out these things

To make a rope swing

To hurt myself in the strangest of means

They point out every flaw, me it demeans

They tell me of the love I'll never receive

Tearing away every piece of me

Causing me to bleed

Oh to bleed is the only relief

Sometimes I have these thoughts

They cause my stomach to tie up in knots

They tend to whisper, hidden in the seems

But when I'm alone...

They scream
