Kanye West
Curtain Down 4.30.18
[Verse 1]
I gotta admit that at the start I was a little scared
Tungkong Kalan was such a blast didn’t wanna compare
But for the Dombagol I had to keep a promise to be honest if he was PCN Coord I told him I’d be on it
And so I did
Cheers to another semester
Here’s to them long nights barely getting to rest up
Still givin' the best of my ability to dress up
Keep character, necks up
Eyes down, chest up
Give the rest of the cast a good reason to keep they heads up
I cared way too much for all of y’all for me to mess up
My attendance was up and down made up for it with perseverance
Been goin’ at it ever since our first appearance
[Chorus]
But the newbies don’t know, but later they’ll understand it
The veterans were familiar with the flight until the landing
Shout out the coordinators, the committees, and board
This goes out to all the Alumni who will never get bored of that feeling that they feeling when they filling up the front section of Matador Square
You know we had to go there
Practice started with the sun up, one run thru till the evening. Bittersweet moment welcome to PCN season, yeah
[Verse 2]
Last year I had all my Codings and Ate Jojo
This year I had our adings I’m ridin’ solo
I got the solo for Mumbagol that wasn’t the goal but once I earned it I decided to embrace it and go. Ugh
Sierra, Jacaranda, Manzanita
29 degrees but Best Fam still got that new freezer. (That’s cold.)
Still went full out for the Association
Did our best to research to avoid appropriation, misrepresentation
I’m gonna miss the cup noodles and warm blankets
The two a day practice
All the emotional actin’ the instruments bangin’
Documenting with cameras
The costumes and makeup that added to our fashion
Hurry up if you about to use the restroom
Cuz right after you pee might miss the next cue
I remember when I first saw the helicopter
I had to pick my eyes up and place them back in they sockets
And don’t forget to go hunting for all the sponsorships!
Getting that PAC was such an accomplishment
Each and every one of y’all got respect from me. Not only did we host a show we made the show for free
[Chorus]
The newbies don’t know, later they’ll understand it
The veterans were familiar with the flight until the landing
Shout out the coordinators, the committees, and board
This goes out to all the Alumni who will never get bored of that feeling that they feeling when they filling up the front section of Matador Square
You know we had to go there
Practice started with the sun up, two run thrus till the evening
And don’t close your eyes when it’s PCN season
[Verse 3]
And everybody got they own reasons. Meaning
Some people do it just because it's life
And some people do PCN to discover they inner light
And some people do PCN because they out of they mind
Some people do it to give back to the communi-T-Y
TY to everybody that does it and understands the price
Some people do it just because they wanna pass time
And some people do it to escape they day to day lives
And it’s beautiful how we can go from a dance we can’t pronounce, to showin’ out with a group in front of a crowd
However, whatever we all worked it out
I’m just glad I got to do it with y’all till curtain down
[Break]
Damn, where the hell is everybody?
I hope y'all hit the hotline up
Yo. Every time I dance I can feel my ancestors walkin’
Every time I cry I can feel my ancestors talkin’
And we may not know it but around us our ancestors watchin
And when I’m on stage I feel 30,000 of my ancestors marchin’
Y'all feel that? Ha. Let's go! Listen
[Chorus]
And the newbies ain’t newbies no more they finally understand it
The veterans got they seatbelts fastened prepared for landing
Switch up the coordinators, the committees and board
And now I’m that alumnus who will never get bored, of that feeling that I’m feeling when I visit y’all next year at Matador Square, you know I’m bout to go there
And with a blink of an eye we are no longer meetin
Conclusion of PCN season
Let's go
