All the songs

Verse 1
The freshman said “Hey, where do I go?
You could fill up the ocean with what I don’t know
I want to be noticed, but I also don’t
There’s so much I ain’t done but not much I won’t.”

CHORUS
We march to the mountains, we march to the beach
Soon we will savor that sweet victory
All justice be served and debts will be paid
At the end of the High School Safety Pin Parade

Verse 2
The sophomore said “This is the truth
I’m filled up with knowledge and the wisdom of youth
I will be noticed, just you wait and see
My deeds will be written, I’m legendary.”

CHORUS

Verse 3
The Junior remarked “Well, that’s happening.
So much commotion, everybody watching.
Looks like a good time, and I guess I agree.
I’ll show up to show up, and see what I see.”

CHORUS

SOLO

Verse 4
The Senior said “We’ve got to do something.
We can’t let this stand, history’s watching!
The world will remember the depth of our sins
So get on your feet, and stick on your pins.”
