Role of a Lifetime (From "High School Musical: The Musical: The Series")

Those kids, they do believe in you

And that's worth so much more

Than a line about a piece of fruit or a Tony Award

I was going for an EGOT

Let's not get ahead of ourselves

Think of this as the role of a lifetime

It's the part you were born to play

Keeping their dreams in your sightline

Now it's their turn to take the stage

Think of this as a role to remember

Like Elphaba or Éponine

I'm more of a Glinda

It's all of the things you could ever bring to a scene

You know what I mean?

So, give it your all

Right from the start

You gotta play this from the heart

You're their teacher, you're the lead

And you're off book now!

Give it a go

Show 'em the way

We're all in this together at the end of the day

I should know, after all, I played Ryan

Is this the role of a lifetime?

The part I was born to play?

Showing them how to smile in the bright lights

Now, it's their turn to take the stage

This could be a role to remember

Like Elsa or Eva Perón

I'll teach them to channel their feelings

I'll share what I know

And live for the show

I'll give it my all

Right from the start

I gotta play this from the heart

I'm their teacher, I'm the lead

And I'm off book now!

Give it a go!

Show 'em the way

You gotta let the music play

This is now, and the rest is history

I felt small, I couldn't breathe

When they took that apple from me

But you're right here now

And you'll never know when you'll get a cameo

So, give it your all

Right from the start

You gotta let them play their parts

Tonight, all the roles will be

Played by the drama students of East High!

Give it a go

Show 'em the way
