If Only You Would Listen
The Original Broadway Cast of School of Rock
You always talk, talk, talk all the time
You never let me get in a word
I wish I had, I had a dime
For every thought I've swallowed unheard
No matter what it is that I do,
It's like I just can't seem to get through

I've got so much to say,
If only you would listen
I've tried every which way,
And still you never listen
Can't you see I'm hurting?
I couldn't be more clear
But I promise one day I'll make you hear

You know I try, try, try to explain
I'm not the kid you want me to be
And yet it's all, it's all in vain
You just don't wanna see the real me
You think you know what I'm all about,
And yet you just keep shutting me out
I've got so much to share,
If only you would listen
You could show that you care,
If only you could listen
I'm not gonna beg you,
You'll never see a tear
But I promise one day I'll make you hear

Yeah, you'll see one day I'm gonna make you hear me
God I'll find a way but you are gonna hear me
Got so much to say and I'm gonna make you hear me

Maybe then you'll listen (maybe then you'll listen)
You gotta listen (you gotta listen)
You need to listen (you need to listen)
You better listen

I've got so much inside (I've got so much inside)
If only you would listen (listen)
Joy and anger and pride (joy and anger and pride)
If only you would listen (listen)
It's not much I'm asking,
I only want your ear
Yeah, I promise one day I'll make you hear
It's not much I'm asking,
I only want your ear
And I promise one day I'll shake you
So damn hard that at last I'll wake you
Yeah, I promise one day I'll make you hear
