Newsies Medley (Music Video Version) Lyrics

Open the gates and seize the day
Don't be afraid and don't delay
Nothing can break us
No one can make us
Give our rights away
Arise and seize the dayNow is the time to seize the day
(Now is the time to seize the day)
Send out the call and join the fray
(Send out the call and join the fray)
Wrongs will be righted
If we're united
Let us seize the dayNeighbor to neighbor
Father to son
One for all and all for oneA pair of new shoes with matchin laces...
A permanent box at the Sheepshead Races....
A porcelain tub with boiling water
A Saturday night with the mayor's daughter!Look at me
I'm the King of New York!

Suddenly
I'm respectable
Staring right atcha
Lousy with statureMaking a headline out of a hunch
Protecting the weak
And paying for lunchAnd there I'd be!
Look at me!
Strong and Free!
Victory!
Now i'm staring right atcha
I'm the King of New York!So that's what they call a family
Mother, daughter, father, son
Guess that everything you heard about is trueSanta Fe
Are you there?
Do you swear you won't forget me?
If I found you would you let me come and stay?I ain't gettin' any younger
And before my dyin' day
I want space
Not just air
Let 'em laugh in my face
I don't care
Save a place
I'll be there
In Santa FeUptown to Grand Central Station
Down to City Hall
We improves' our circulation
Walking till we fallAin't it a fine life
Carrying the banner through it all?
(Ain't it a fine life
Carrying the banner through it all?)
A mighty fine life
Carrying the banner tough and tallEvery morning
We goes where we wishes
We's as free as fishes
Sure beats washing dishes
What a fine life
Carrying the banner home-free all!Wrongs will be righted
If we're united
Let us seize the day!
