Song by Bat Boy: The Musical Cast<br /><br>

BAT BOY: <br>

I know you hate me. But if you could only see me the way I see all of you...<br>

<br>

Look at all your faces. Children, husbands, wives.<br>

God, you're all so beautiful. I envy you your lives.<br>

Going to work, building your schools, throwing a football<br>

or swimming in pools.<br>

Out in the sun, living by rules, I could learn how if you'd teach me the tools...<br>

I know I'm strange, so help me change, please.<br>

<br>

Let me walk among you. Let me show my face.<br>

I could learn to live with you, I can earn my place.<br>

I will move a mountain; your wish is my command.<br>

And some day you may want to shake my hand.<br>

<br>

I will paint your houses. I'll milk your cows at dawn.<br>

I will do your laundry and I will mow your lawn.<br>

Let me file your taxes. I am a CPA!<br>

And maybe then you'll shake my hand someday.<br>

I can grow a champion rose, or teach a yoga class.<br>

I myself designed these clothes. I can do my part.<br>

Must I die then with my nose still pressed against the glass?<br>

But if you'd shake my hand, well, thats a start.<br>

Yes, thats a start. Look in your heart!<br>

<br>

And let me join your carpool- No! Let me drive the car!<br>

Let me throw a barbeque or join you at the bar.<br>

Come and watch the ballgame, I'll bake a pecan pie!<br>

And I will shake your hand when you drop by.<br>

Oh, bring me to your churches and met me look inside,<br>

Bring me to your weddings and let me kiss the bride!<br>

<br>

Thank you all for listening... thats... all I had to say.<br>

<br>

But please will someone shake my hand?<br>

Won't somebody take my hand?<br>

Let just one person shake my hand!<br>

<br>

ALL: Okay<br>

BAT BOY: Okay?<br>

ALL: Okay!<br>

BAT BOY: Okay?<br>

ALL: Okay!<br>

BAT BOY: Okay?<br>

ALL: OKAY!<br>

Praise God, the sheep has returned to the fold.<br>

And the prodigal son has come in from the cold!<br>

<br>

BAT BOY: So like the prophets were told<br>

<br>

ALL: In the days of old! Make a joyful noise, my soul!<br>

Make a joyful noise, my soul!<br>

<br>

BAT BOY AND ALL: Make some noise! (Make some noise!)<br>

Make some noise! (Make some noise!)<br>

Hallelujah- my soul is whole!<br>

Sing it loud! (Sing it proud)<br>

Sing it strong- all night long!<br>

<br>

ALL: Make a joyful noise- a joyful noise my soul!<br>

A joyful noise my soul!<br>

A joyful noise my soul!<br>

A joyful noise-<br>

my soul!<br>

AMEN!<br>

<br>
