Without Those Songs - The Script

Would Dylan be just a poet?

Would Bono ever know it without those songs?

Would Marley be just a stoner?

Johnny Cash just be a loner without those songs?

Would Buddy Holly have disappeared?

Or would Lennon still be here without those songs?

What happened in their lives?

What happened in their hearts?

To make them want to write the words

Gonna tear this world apart

The beauty of their lives

Is when they’re dead and gone

The world still sings along

When anything went right

When anything went wrong

They put it in a song

Would Elvis be just a look

Or The Rolling Stones be stuck without those songs?

Would Sinatra be just a gangster

Or would Jackson be just a dancer without those songs?

Would Madonna be just a face?

Or Nirvana be just a place without those songs?

What happened in their lives?

What happened in their hearts?

To make them want to write the words

Gonna tear this world apart

The beauty of their lives

Is when they’re dead and gone

The world still sings along

When anything went right

When anything went wrong

They put it in a song
