on a scorching field
in a freezing band room
surrounded by friends
near all the instruments
out of time
on top of the world
at school too early in the morning or to late at night
too close to the percussionists
too close to the trombone
crammed in the band room
on a crowed bus with out a bath room
up against an obstacle
rushing to class
Late to class
between two other band members
up a creek without a paddle
somewhere
nowhere
anywhere
everywhere at once
here
there
everywhere
out of mind
up too late
someplace you shouldn't be
late
waiting for a ride
somewhere with in about 3 octaves
close to or to far from home
in the stands
stomping through a mud puddle
in the wrong seat
in the wrong room
on the wrong page
in the wrong set
on the wrong foot
off pitch
at the wrong metronome marking
off the beat
in the middle of a fermata
behind in the score
down in the count
out of that unbearably hot gym
in a snowstorm with your instrument
across a snow-covered field
taking over someone else's seat
at the coffee machine
seat less because someone stole yours
out of sight
off the record
in the phone book
out of whack
out of tune
above all those OTHER bands
behind the football team
behind in practice
below the fans
on a FIVE-minute break
in competition
back in the warm school
a long way from victory
going down in history
waiting along the edge of the field
in the right place at the wrong time
on stage
in the middle of a solo
waiting for your cue
missing your cue
trying to catch up
in the middle of a song
interrupting rehearsal
in the percussion closet
in the flag closet
in uniform
On stage
EATING AT DAMON'S!
Go Revere BAND!!!!!
