Robin And The Giant: Music

Stay In School

(Robin And The Giant)
Words and Music by Larry Whitler

Maybe it's just a mystery,
Maybe it takes a famous name from history
To open doors for you.
Maybe you need a wealthy Dad,
A little pull that most of us will never have.
Or, maybe none of this is true.

See, I don't think it's a mystery at all.
And counting on your stars is just for fools.
The secret to tomorrow is no secret at all
And the only magic words are "stay in school."

Maybe you're not an architect,
But, whatever you're not, you're just not yet,
For I can see a future bright as day.
And maybe you'll ride in limousines,
A movie star on the silver screen,
It's up to you,
And I know how to pave the way.

See, I don't think it's a mystery at all.
And counting on your stars is just for fools.
The secret to tomorrow is no secret at all
And the only magic words are "stay in school."

I happen to know
That every one is a gifted child.
I happen to know
That every single one of these children
Deserves to smile.

Yeah, and maybe the road is rough at times,
But every struggle leaves behind a little clue,
A little bright and clearer view.
So dream of the life you long to live,
Dream of the love your works will give to everyone,
And all the joy sent back to you.

See, I don't think it's a mystery at all.
And counting on your stars is just for fools.
The secret to tomorrow is no secret at all
And the only magic words are "stay in school."
