歌词
[Overture]
[Instrumental: A lively orchestral introduction setting the competitive tone.]
[Act 1 - Scene 1: The Encounter]
Tenor (Public School Student):
Verse 1
In the heart of the city, where the streets are alive,
We learn through the hustle, the struggle, the drive.
We stand as one, with lessons unpriced,
In the school of the people, where grit is our pride.
Baritone (Private School Student):
Verse 2
Behind gates of ivy, where history thrives,
We’re groomed with precision, where excellence strives.
We wear our blazers, with knowledge refined,
In the school of the people, where grit is our pride.
[Act 1 - Scene 2: The Boast]
Tenor (Public School Student):
Chorus
We face the world with courage and might,
No tuition can bind our soaring flight.
The world is our classroom, the streets our guide,
In halls filled with legacy, where futures are aligned.
Baritone (Private School Student):
Chorus
In marbled corridors, we craft our name,
With mentors and masters who guide our aim.
Tradition and honor, in every stride,
In private walls, where excellence resides.
[Act 2 - Scene 1: The Challenge]
Tenor (Public School Student):
Verse 3
You may have your tutors, your books, and your class,
But we’ve got the spirit, the fire that won’t pass.
We learn from the streets, from life’s every test,
In the school of the people, we’re always the best.
Baritone (Private School Student):
Verse 4
But what of discipline, the structure, the grace?
We’re molded with care, in this esteemed place.
We’re taught by the greats, with knowledge to share,
In the halls of tradition, we breathe the rarefied air.
[Act 2 - Scene 2: The Resolution]
Tenor & Baritone (Duet):
Chorus
Though our paths may differ, our goals align,
To rise and succeed, with strength we’ll combine.
The public and private, together we stand,
In unity and wisdom, we’ll lead this land.
