Hard Work From the musical FAME by Steve Margoshes Lyrics

Pray, Pray, Pray
I pray I make P.A
I pray I make
I pray I make P.A

Pray, Pray, Pray
I pray I make P.A
I pray I make
I pray I make P.A

Pray, Pray, Pray
I pray I make P.A

I pray I make

I pray I make

P.A (Pray, Pray, Pray)

Pray, Pray, Pray, Pray, Pray, Pray
I Pray I make P.A (I Pray I make P.A)
I Pray I make (I Pray I make x2)
P.A
I made it... I MADE IT! (Woooo)

Ladies and Gentlemen, Welcome to P.A. The highschool of performing arts! I'm your homeroom teacher, MISS SHERMAN

This ain't no
Movie show
Playin in a theatre
Or a video
Fantasy
I was always hot to see
On the T.V

I'm so hot
Hot to trot
I can hardly wait to show them
What I got
Wonder who'll
Come out shinin' like a jewel
In the "Fame" school

Everyone! Quiet please... QUIET! Thank you
Anyone late, better have a pass

I'll be gone (Just let me warn you.)

Where's the John? (If your here believing that you'll live forever or invision dancing on top of cars down on 46'th street. You're humming the wrong tune!)
Man they got me runnin'
In a marathon

Can't slow up (This is still a public school, I don't care how well you perform, if you don't give your academic subjects equal time... YOU'RE OUT!)

I'll go home and not show up

Maybe throw up

Class to class
Tryin' to pass
Learnin' who the teachers are
Who bust your ass
Feelin' small
Feelin' up against the wall
During role call!

When I call you please answer your name! Diaz Carmen (That's me.) Katz Serena! (Here) Speak up, you are in drama aren't you? Lamb Grace! (Here, Here.) Sorry I'm late, the bus has a flat. I missed the ferry, I come from the end of the world, Staten Island! (Miss Lamb, that's no excuse.) (I know, It's a curse!)

Here we are (Metzenbaum Schlomo!) (Yeah, Schlomo here!)

So bizarre (No hats, unless you're orthodox!)

This is where they show you (Piazza Nicholas) (Present)

How to be a star!
I can't wait (Jackson Tyrone.)

I can't even concentrate (Jackson Tyrone!)

I just pulsate! (Vegas! José!)

That's Joe Joe! I wanna thank my producers, Pepe and Maria Vegas, of the South Bronx... (QUIET!)

Yo! I'm Tyrone Jackson! Am I in the right place? (You're in the right place but at the wrong time!)

Mr Jackson are you going to the beach or coming to school? And no headphones in class. Pick them up at the end of the day

Get off my case woman! It's my first day

Keep this up and it could be your last! And the name is not woman! It's MISS SHERMAN!

I'm alive
And I will survive
Show the world that I can take it
When I hit the heights
Put my name in lights
Show the world that I can make it
By doin'

Acting takes more than talent and determination, it requires a solid technique. The first two years we will deal with discovery of self (By doin')

Who you are! You must be in touch with your emotions, if you expect to touch others

You will study ballet, modern, folk and jazz. There will be injuries, that's to be expected. (Doin')

Dance is the core of life. Dance is our salvation, movement, touch, expression (Doin')

You will learn to construct harmony, and sight reading, melodic dictation, melodic piano, music history. Bach, Beethoven and Mozart (Doin')

Pink Floyd

By doin'
Doin'

May I have your attention please! (Yo, man, don't mark this place out front. Its a beautiful place to live) (Yeah, if your a cockroach!)

I said attention! Hard work! These two words will own you for the next 4 years!

By doin' hard work!
By doin' hard work!
By doin' hard work!
By doin' hard work!
By doin' hard work!

Acting is the hardest profession in the world. Hard work!
The hardest profession in the world
Dance is the hardest profession in the world
The hardest profession in the world. Hard work!
Music is the hardest profession in the world
The hardest profession in the world. Hard work!
The hardest profession in the world
The hardest profession in the world

Acting is the hardest profession in the world. Hard work!
The hardest profession in the world
Acting, Dance is the hardest profession in the world. Hard work!
The hardest profession in the world
Acting, Dance, Music is the hardest profession in the world. Hard work!
The hardest profession in the world
Acting, Dance, Music is the hardest profession in the world. Hard work!
The hardest profession in the world

I'm alive and I will survive
Show the world that I can take it
When I hit the heights (Hit the heights)
Put my name in lights (I will put my name in light yeah!)
Show the world that I can make it

By doin' ... doin' ...
Doin' ... doin' ...

By doin' hard work
By doin' hard work
By doin' hard work

Hard work!
