In The Marching Band

about

Kickstarter reward for Mason Herschberg, 2012

lyrics

Some bands only play in small bars
Show up in their own cars
Only just to pass time
But my band always plays arenas
You probably have seen us
Playing at the half time

Sequined soldiers of the football stands
Killing our evenings in the marching band
At every game we're in demand
Our parents are our biggest fans
As long as we're in marching band

Some bands never really get big
Only play a few gigs
Not at all immersing
But my band always goes to contest
Cannot get a night's rest
Always up rehearsing

If the team keeps winning, wouldn't that be grand?
Going to playoffs in the marching band
Loading the equipment van
Testing our attention span
Oh why'd we join the marching band?
