Joshua gets jealous when his
Altissimo squeals aren't the best
But he can play the tenor
Just like a '63 Stan Getz

He was an offensive linemen
On his senior high's JV team
Their quarterback was sacked eleven times
And it killed their self-esteem

The team was two to six the night
Of the home town rivalry game
But he faked an injury
To practice standards by the bay

He knew João Gilberto and his
Collaborative record with Getz
He felt a propinquitous pull towards
The latter, so it was set

Take some time to pause
For all the stars that died too young
The greats are not the greatest
Just cause they have more songs

But maybe in the future
There will be respect for those
That gave away their talents
With their permanent repose

His tone had pulled the fishes out
The water and to the sky
He'd finally found his calling
Left the team with kind goodbyes

He joined his high school's jazz band
And ripped solos like no one else
The crowd could feel his altissimo squeals
Enraptured in his belts

He had asked me if he
Could one day front a band
I told him only if you front with others
And you learn the baby grand
You'll be there

Take some time to pause
For all the stars that died too young
The greats are not the greatest
Just cause they have more songs

But maybe in the future
There will be respect for those
That gave away their talents
With their permanent repose
