[Intro]
Tap-tap-tap, the spotlight’s warm and bright
A{pet rock} pirouette, he’s stealing the night
Tiny top hat, a glimmering brim
He drums his dream on a granite limb
[Verse 1]
My pet rock woke up with a glittering plan
He practiced in the dust, then he ran to the tan
He says, “I’ve got rhythm, I’ve got a spark,
Let me shine on Broadway, light up the dark.”
[Pre-Chorus]
He rattles a peg, he stamps a silver toe
Mariachi horns begin to glow
[Chorus]
Spotlight on a stone with a heart that’s grand
Tap-dance thunder, a tiny, mighty stand
Top hat tipping to the beat in rock and roll
Mariachi cries, “Brilliant, brave, and bold!”
[Verse 2]
The crowd of pebbles claps, the dust swirls round
He spins a quick shuffle, never touching ground
“Encore!” he whispers from his stony throat
A legend in layers of limestone note
[Pre-Chorus]
The band of pipes and trumpets sigh
We hear the stone’s soft, stubborn cry
[Chorus]
Spotlight on a stone with a heart that’s grand
Tap-dance thunder, a tiny, mighty stand
Top hat tipping to the beat in rock and roll
Mariachi cries, “Brilliant, brave, and bold!”
[Bridge]
One small stage, infinite dreams
Gravity dances away with the seams
If a rock can dream, then so can we
Let the tiny dancer roll, let him be free
[Chorus]
Spotlight on a stone with a heart that’s grand
Tap-dance thunder, a tiny, mighty stand
Top hat tipping to the beat in rock and roll
Mariachi cries, “Brilliant, brave, and bold!”
[Outro]
Dust settles soft as the curtain folds
The rock bows low, in glittering gold
