Maybe it's my name,
Maybe it's my face,
Maybe it's my - both.
All I know is,
Show me a glass of water,
I'll show you a soggy dress,
Show me a tube of toothpaste,
I'll show you a mess,
Show me a fresh laid sidewalk,
And guess where my footprints are?
Show me a fire hydrant,
I'll show you - my car.
Show me the latest dance step,
I'll show you the latest fall,
Show me the train to Boston,
I'll show you St. Paul.
Show me a hundred lighters,
I'll show you the one that won't
Show me a priceless vase,
No don't.
Ask me to give directions,
I'll show you a vacant lot,
Show me a knot that's tangled,
I'll show you a tangled knot.
Show me a nest of hornets...
(See what happened... and there... it's itchy)
Maybe I can do, don't laugh - good.
Maybe I can do, don't laugh - well.
Maybe you could be, who knows? Proud.
Alright, so laugh, but not too loud.
If I can convince, don't laugh - me.
Why can't I convince? Don't leave - you.
Give half a chance, just half.
And then, don't laugh, maybe I can be proud of me too.
(You will? Oh, yes.
I can be ready soon - how about now?
How about - yes!)
Show me a barren hillside, I'll show you a field of grass.
Show me an empty school room, I'll show you - a class.
Show me an epidemic, I'll show you a board of health!
Show me a starving people,
Show me an insurrection,
Show me a restless native,
Show me the way to get there!
Sally is going to do, don't laugh - good.
Sally is going to do, don't laugh - well.
Everything's gonna' be, you watch, fine.
You hear a laugh? That laugh is mine.
Everything will be done, I hope - right.
Everything will be right, don't ask how.
Look at it all fall into place.
Maybe it's my name! - Maybe it's my face!
Show me a job to do, and I'll show you now!
