Take a Look At Us Now

You can pack your bags and start skipping townHang up your hat when the show shuts downBut when the world says you ain't quite world-renownedDon't count yourself out yetWhen you hit that lonely and lowest lowWell, up's the only way left to goYou're meant to reinvent the showSo ain't you glad we met?Turn that dull and dusty soloTo a dazzling duetWe started pretty smallBut take a look at us nowTake a look at us nowSuddenly standing ten feet tallTake a look at us nowTake a look at us nowThough we have no way to stay afloatWe were scared and saying "That's all she wrote"We're ending on a sky-high noteSomehowBuddy, you were all it tookSo take a look at us nowWhen that perfect plan's going off the railsA heap of trouble is on our tailsIt's time to polish up those scalesAnd give it all you've gotIf you're out of stepIf you're out of syncIf you care too much what those critics thinkWell, when you find your missing linkDon't give it a second thought'Cause in the center of the spotlightWe just might have found our spotFinding our luck with every leapTake a look at us nowTake a look at us nowThe road could be scared, it could be steepTake a look at us nowTake a look at us nowThough we might look sun at first glanceWho'da thunk that we had a chanceOur life could be a song and danceSomehowBuddy, you were all it tookSo take a look at us nowSo even when you're terrifiedJust find a smile a mile wide'Cause bud, when you and I collideStanding side by sideWe're gonna take a great big bowWould you take a look at us now?Give us a spotlight and a crowdTake a look at us nowReady to sing our song out loudTake a look at us nowWon't you take a look at usTake a look at usTake a look at us now
