Barry talking:
Well I may have imagined singing
Back then but you know when I actually got
Into the music business
It wasn't as a singer at all:
It was as an accompanist
I started out playing for auditions
And from where I sat I
Learned alot because only
One out of a hundred ever got the
Job they were auditioning for really
One out of a hundred
But that didn't stop the restno sir

Barry singing:
I learned more from failure than
I learned from success
I learned from no thank you
So much more than from yes
I learned to be willing to lead with my chin
And if I were willing to lose, I could win
I learned from the losers who
Got right back in line
The dimmer their future
Than the brighter they'd shine
Three cheers for the one
The one in a hundred
But God bless the other 99

Barry talking:
Those courageous people changed my life
They taught me that you can give
In, you can give out, but you don't give up

Barry singing:
I learned more from failure than
I learned from success
I learned from no thank you
So much more than from yes
I learned to be willing to lead with my chin
And if I were willing to lose, I could win

Vanessa: Everything's coming up
Roses"thank you"
Debra: Everything's coming up
Roses"thank you"
Billy: Everything's coming up roses for
Me and for"thank you, next!"

I learned from the losers who
Got right back in line
(Kiss the day goodbye)
The dimmer their future
Than the brighter they'd shine
(And point me towards tomorrow)
Three cheers for the one
The one in a hundred
But God bless, God bless

Barry talking:
All of us up here on this stage
Tonight are here because of the
Courage that we learned from the other
99 we'll be forever grateful right Billy?
Right! I learned more from failure
Than I learned from success

How about you Vanessa?
I learned from no thank you so
Much more than from yes

And you Debra?
I learned to be willing to lead with my chin

Dana, Terry, everybody!
And if we were willing to lose, we could win

We learned from the losers who
Got right back in line
The dimmer their future
Than the brighter they'd shine
Three cheers for the one
The one in a hundred but God bless
Upfront we were always meant to be god bless
There for all the world to see
God bless"thank you", No, thank you!
The other 99!
