Lyrics When I Climb To The Top Of Mount Rock - The Original Broadway Cast of School of Rock, Andrew Lloyd Webber

When I Climb To The Top Of Mount Rock

I’ll be strummin' my axe in a basement dive with my totally kick-ass band!
When an army of A&R men will arrive with pens and contracts in hand!
And they’ll whisk me away in a big, black car
And the record execs, and the girls from PR
They’ll know from the start what a major league star I will be!
Just wait and see!
When I climb to the top of Mount Rock
And I’m there, staring down from the heights
With the crowd at my feet and a 7-inch bulge
And my lizard skin spandex tights
I’ll dive off the edge straight into a crowd that’s screamin my name out loud
And the gates will unlock
At the top of Mount Rock!
I’ll be blowin' out amps, playin stadium shows
I’m a sold out gontcic tour!
And I’ll blister the ears of the first thousand rows
And leave while they beg for more!
Then I’ll pop the champagne and the party will rage
No brown M&M's in my green room backstage
Bigger than Hedrix, and Clapton, and Page!
And the rest
The all time best!
When I climb to the top of Mount Rock
And I’m perched at the upper-most peak
With a leigon of groupies all dukin' it out
For my chiseled wreck god phisque
And I’ll scatter hit singles all over the land with my 12 Grammys in hand
Watch the fan-boys all flock!
At the top of Mount Rock
The doubters
And the haters
And the hipsters
Let em laugh
Soon they’ll all be beggin' for my roadies' autograph
I know my time is comin'
Well, I hope my time is comin'
I’m pretty sure it’s comin' any day!
Once they hear me play!
Then the dreams I had since the day I turned 10 will be finally coming true
And no one will call me a loser again
Or tell me what I can’t do!
So I’ll hold my head high and keep strummin' those strings
And grab any chance that my destiny brings
I’ll rise and I’ll rise and I’ll rise
And the wings of my soul
Up where I belong!
And I’ll climb to the top of Mount Rock
And be part of that heavenly scene
With Odin and Zeus on the base and the drums
And Thor playin' tamborine
And Amos and Janice and Kurt will appear
And Jesus will toss me a beer
And we’ll jam 'round the clock!
At the top of Mount Rock
At the top of Mount Rock
At the top of Mount Rock!
