lyrics

ELLIOT:
We only repeat what we know when we speak
When we’re listening
We might just learn something new

MATT:
Can I say something?

ELLIOT:
Yeah

MATT:
Boys can be men
So why not set a standard for them?
And stop enabling rape
‘Cause allowing boys to desecrate
The mortal vessels our God creates
And shaming guys whose agency
Is torn aside inescapably
Tells the story that ought to be told
Of an academy that was so bold
To destroy its own integrity
Because it couldn’t look past and see
The simple truth
That boys can be divine

Boys are not the plague
No
What are they then?
Boys can choose to be men

ELLIOT:
So, please take your own advice and listen

DAVID:
Lift up the hearts of the wounded

IAN:
Be a pattern of virtue

DAVID/IAN:
Love your brothers
Edify, don’t use them

IAN:
You are extraordinary

DAVID:
Brothers you’re extraordinary

ALL:
The Loren Brothers
Rainbow Academy
Brothers you’re extraordinary

All who can wield a pen
Write and send in your petition
A manifesto denouncing
Dick Bennett’s character
We will protect our brothers
And the school as a whole
We will work to save every soul
For all souls are

Extraordinary
Brothers you’re extraordinary
The Loren Brothers
Rainbow Academy
Brothers you’re extraordinary
