Underdog

 

There-

There is-

There is a-

-A POWER!

There is a power!

in the underdog

 

When-

When there-

When there is-

-A WOMAN!

Up on the stage singing-

SHE HAS THE POWER!

 

That-

That is-

That is the-

THE POWER!

That is the power!

in the underdog

 

When-

When I-

When I see-

WHEN I SEE A MAN!

Who would have been in chains a century ago-

Speaking to the men who would have owned him

I FEEL THE POWER!

 

That-

That is-

That is the-

THE POWER!

-that is the power in the underdog!

-the power in overcoming the odds!

-the power of something so unlikely

that you can’t help but smile at it.
