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

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!
