The Legend - Sheryl Lee Ralph/Stephanie Styles
Composed by:Danny Abosch/John Maclay
Produced by:Danny Abosch
The legend begins at this very school
Four score minus seven years ago
Legend has it that there once was a boy
Who found a script in the basement below
The play was called"The Phantom"
It was the scariest of shows
Is that how it started? No one knows
But that's how the legend goes
Legend has it the boy showed his teacher
And the story captured her soul
She vowed the school would perform it
With the boy in the title role
But before the play could open
A disaster forced it to close
Is that the truth? Well there are those
Who say that's how the legend goes
It's a story nothing more
Just the stuff of legend and lore
The kind that always follows scary shows
Some swear it with conviction
Others say it's only fiction
Just a rumor but a rumor always grows
And that's how the legend goes
Legend has it that when Abigail applied for funds
The principal refused to grant 'em
But grandmother bravely held her ground
Resolved to produce"The Phantom"
But on the night the play was to open
Well the curtain never rose
What happened next I can't disclose
But that's how the legend goes
You can't end the story there
Yeah tell us What happened next?
I'm not sure I should
Well if you won't tell them I will
The boy playing"Phantom" had vanished
They searched but he couldn't be found
And when Ms. Walker tried to make an announcement
She was stopped by a frightening sound
The most terrible scream rang out
Every face in the audience froze
Was it him? Well no one really knows
But that's how the legend goes
The principal closed the production
And demanded the script's destruction
But one survived right underneath his nose
And though it was forbidden
Ms. Walker kept it hidden
And when she died it was found beside a mask and rose
Or so the legend goes
Ms. Walker tell them the really scary part
About the boy
Oh I don't know
Just remember it's a story nothing more
Just the stuff of legend and lore
But some say his soul remains here in repose
Now he haunts the school where he vanished
To make sure the play stays banished
That's why some say it's cursed this play I chose
Is it true?
Well I suppose
That no one knows
Not even those
Who swear that
That's how the legend
That's how the legend
That's how the legend goes
