BORN TO DISCOVER By Nancy Hahn
I was born to discover in Florence, Italy
Go Little Leo Go
I flew my kite with wonder
Now look at me
Go Little Leo Go
I love to draw all day
Dream the night away
Questioning how things work
Is how spend my day
Go Little Leo Go!
I was born to discover
As a little tike
I wanted to move faster
So I made a bike
I run around all day
da Vinci is my name
To discover is my destiny
I learn more every day
I met a cool girl Lisa
And she smiled at me..
Go little Leo go
We hung out at Medici's
Where the cake was free
Michelangelo and me
Painted the ceiling
Lisa watched
She shouted out... "Leo please paint ME!"
EVERYBODY LOVES A DREAM MACHINE
By Nancy Hahn
Everybody loves a dream machine
Know what I mean
To make the work go faster
More time for fun and laughter
The wheels are turning now in my mind.
Everybody loves a DREAM MACHINE
After my disaster of the wings I could not master
You'd think my hopes would fall to the ground
Everybody loves a DREAM Machine
Know what I mean
The Kings and Queens, my neighbors...
Asked me for some favors
They knew I would always comply
Dream today
Ideas can truly fly
GIVE ME THE LOOT (LUTE)
A conversation of class rivalry between Medici and Leonardo DaVinci By Nancy Hahn
(Poor Man):
Give me the loot
Or our deal is moot
You know I don't work for free
You're the elite
But I gotta eat
Cause I aint no king to be
I don't mean maybe
So just pay me
My works second to none
I dont mean maybe
So just pay me
I aint no rich man's son
(Rich Man):
You think its easy being me
A victim of my destiny
This gilded gage that you engage
Has a life not what it seems to be
But with your talent
And my rich valiance.....
Sooo...ll give you the loot
But you must prove
That you wont bolt on me
I pay a good rate
You can create
And we can make HISTORY
