Another conglomeration of songs constantly playing in my head.

“It’s nine o’clock on a Saturday
The regular crowd shuffles in”1
“And all that counts is here and now
My universe will never be the same”2
“‘Cause I want it that way”3

“Take a shot, take it up a notch
If we’re on the spot, we can pull it off”4
“I was gonna be that one in a million
Always had high, high hopes”5

“White streak in my hair but no stress now”6
“Tell me why”3
“Sometimes, all I think about is you
Late nights in the middle of June”7
“Tell me why”3
“I just lie in bed ‘til the afternoon”8
“To forget about life for a while”1

“Don’t lack imagination
I’m just too scared to try”8
“Take a chance now, ‘cause it’s once in a lifetime”4
“It’s worth it to make some mistakes
You miss all of the shots that you don’t take”8

“Mama said don’t give up, it’s a little complicated”5
“Everyone’s an enemy except my team
Watch each other’s backs and we won’t see defeat”4
“And now I’ve seen the causation
Of all this pain and frustration”6
“We’re getting in the game now, take it away”4

“Sing us a song, you’re the piano man”1
“Play it on repeat, it’s our victory”4
“Can you spend a little time?
Time is slipping away”2
“‘Cause at the countdown, we’re starting out on the ground”4
“Always had high, high hopes”5

“La, la-la, di-di-da
La-la di-di-da da-dum”1
“I really wanna change the world
But can’t change my clothes”8
“There’s nothing wrong with me
I’m better now that I’m free”6
“Believe when I say
I want it that way”3

“Had to have high, high hopes for a living”5
“Tell me why”3
“No one came to help
So I’ll help myself instead”6
“Tell me why”3
“I’m glad you came
I’m glad you came”2
