Cyrano's Great Escape

CYRANOS’ GREAT ESCAPE

All the words I had to say

Were never heard from my own mouth

In the shadows I did lay

It’s time I started speaking out

I used to feel inferior

With this odd exterior

But it’s just a self-made prison

That I refuse to live in

CHORUS

History will not repeat

Other men have died for less

Step right up and grab a seat

I’d like for you all to witness

Cyrano’s Great Escape

I used to think that love was blind

Then I found out that it’s only deaf

Love I once thought should be mine

It’s time I got what I should get

CHORUS

Listen to what I have to say

For I am the one who speaks the truth

All the words our leaders say

Come from some man behind the booth

No tragedy for me this time

I haven’t written my last rhyme

I am the words, I am the song

All you can do is sing along

CHORUS
