//Audience murmuring//

**Young man:** Uh hel- hello. Um, my name is Eric. If you don’t recognize me it’s ‘cause I moved here in the middle of the year and, um, I’m pretty quiet.

**Eric:** Um, I wasn’t even gonna do anything for this, but then I wrote down some words about that- th-the moving here, and my friend Theresa said I should sing it for you guys, and I said absolutely not. But then she won a bet, so—

//Audience chuckles//

**Eric:** Yeah, here we are. Um, I’m— so I’m gonna— or actually, should the mic be, uh, closer to the guitar? Maybe? Sorry, I don’t— I don’t do this. I don’t really do anything so… I hope this goes well.

//Guitar music starts playing//

**Eric:** So you’re 3
Golly gee
Just as playful as a child ought to be
And you love every day
As you draw and you play
And this is life as far as you can see

But one day they take your crayons and your toys
And say its time to play with other girls and boys

But the other kids don’t like you
You’re not sure they ever will
And it’s not like you don’t try to
But you just don’t have the skill
And you wish that you could leave now
And go back to play pretend
But one question just never ends:
When will I make some friends?

So you’re 8
Ain’t it great?
Life is magic if you only concentrate
You add sums up at school
And online you are cool
‘Cause you stay up on the chat rooms ’til it’s late

But one day you realize all you’ve done wrong
You’re a child but you still don’t belong

‘Cause the other kids don’t like you
And you doubt they ever will
And it’s not like you don’t try to
But you just don’t have the skill
And you wish that you could leave now
And regain your innocence
But you’re too old for this pretense
When will I find good friends?

And so you just stay lonely
‘Cause it’s easier that way
Reminders of your childhood
Just start to fade away
But as a teen it finally happens
You make friends, kind and true
And this time the one to screw it up
Is you

You’re sixteen
Stuck between
Who you want to be and who you’ve been
And you’re ready to grow
But you don’t even know
How to talk about the things that stay unseen
So get your headphones, get high
Do your best not to cry
And just try to figure out what it all means

‘Cause the one you like don’t like you
And you know he never will
And it’s not like you don’t try to
But his wish you can’t fulfill
And you wish that you could stay now
And explain your whole defense
To the only ones who ever were your friends
‘Cause you don’t know how you could’ve been this dense
And you can’t answer with any confidence:
When will my life make sense?

**Eric:** Thank you

//Audience applauds.//
