Larger than Life - Musical Cast Recording (音乐剧)[00:00:00]
Uncle Morty used to send me to the movies[00:00:09]
Here's a nickel kid cheer up and go[00:00:12]
And though I was only seven[00:00:16]
I discovered heaven[00:00:19]
At the R K O[00:00:24]
Blue lights[00:00:31]
Pink lights[00:00:33]
Stars in the ceiling[00:00:34]
An organ as big as a buick[00:00:38]
And a screen as tall as the great wall of China[00:00:41]
Red rugs gold stairs[00:00:46]
Porcelain angels[00:00:50]
And everything bigger and better and larger than life[00:00:53]
At first I was strictly a western man[00:01:02]
But then one saturday afternoon[00:01:05]
I saw defender of the crown[00:01:08]
Warner brothers 1941 technicolor starring Alan Swann[00:01:10]
Daring loyal kind but courageous[00:01:18]
A hero as big as a buick[00:01:26]
With a cape a sword and a bevy of maidens[00:01:29]
He was movies me I was seven[00:01:34]
And gee he was bigger and better and larger than life[00:01:42]
See life wasn't capes or flashing swords or parapets[00:01:50]
Life wasn't alan swann or Robin Hood[00:01:58]
Life was your father going out for cigarettes[00:02:06]
And deciding he was going out for good[00:02:14]
Here's a nickel kid cheer up and[00:02:22]
Go swann is playing at the R K O[00:02:26]
Sure it was possible[00:03:04]
If he met my mom in '34[00:03:06]
Maybe heat of link[00:03:08]
Whatever is cabana at the chateau mormont[00:03:09]
There is every reason to believe[00:03:12]
There could be the remove[00:03:14]
Pass it bill[00:03:15]
That the man who went out to the[00:03:16]
Chesterfields wasn't my real father at all[00:03:18]
I wasn't some stupid kid whose father[00:03:22]
Got tired or him and walked out[00:03:24]
I was the bastard son of Alan Swann[00:03:27]
Daring loyal kind but courageous[00:03:34]
A hero as big as I needed[00:03:41]
In the technicolor embrace of a maiden[00:03:45]
Swann my hero and possible father[00:03:52]
He stood and he fought and he never ran[00:04:00]
Oh no[00:04:07]
He was bigger[00:04:11]
And better[00:04:14]
And larger than life[00:04:15]
And he lived for me[00:04:21]
At the R K O[00:04:30]
