Blankets to Broadway
(instruments
warming
up)
Rise and shine, the day is here!
Come on, Auggie, there's nothing to fear!
There's a school to see,
a brand-new place, So get those blankets off your face!
No, no, no, I'm staying right here!
That school tour sounds like my biggest fear!
I don't wanna go,
I don't wanna see,
Why can't the school just come to me?!
We've got a shirt,
we've got some jeans,
The coolest outfit you've ever seen!
Come on, buddy, give it a try,
You might just love it
— don't ask me why!
“Okay, Auggie!
Blue shirt or striped shirt?” “Neither!
Pyjamas are my style!” “Pyjamas are NOT school-tour style!” (whoosh)
Get up, get dressed,
let's start the day!
The school tour's waiting,
we're on our way!
A little bit of courage,
a little bit of cheer,
Come on, Auggie — your breakfast is here!
“There we go!
Now, let's eat something before we go.”
“Do I really have to do this?”
“One step at a time,
buddy.”
What if they don't like me? (sigh)
