LYRICS:
When I'm human again only human again
When the world once more starts making sense
I'll unwind for a change, really that'd be strange
Can I help it if I'm t-t-tense?
In a shack by the sea I'll sit back sipping tea
Let my early retirement commence
Far from fools made of wax I'll get down to
brass tacks and relax when I'm human again
​
Grades 6-12
1. One selection in the style of the show up to a minute in length (ie- one verse and one chorus).
