Foul

[Silence]

[Arrangement: Upbeat guitar-rock with driving drums, crowd chants, Hammond organ, piano, saxophone, baseball-stadium call-and-response]

[Intro]
Hey!
(Which way?)
Watch it fly!
(Flying by)

[Verse 1]
Off the bat and into the air
(No one knows)
Rising fast from nowhere
(No one knows)

A little wind can change the course
(Change the course)
A tiny push can change the force
(Change the force)

[Chorus]
Out of bounds
(Foul ball)
Or on the line
(… this time…?)

[Refrain]
Which way will it land
(Out of our command)
Which way will it fall
(Is it a foul ball?)

Which way will it land
(Out of our command)
Which way will it fall
(Is it a foul ball?)

[Verse 2]
The crowd erupts and points above
(Points above)
Hear the voice convinced enough
(Convinced enough)

We think we know where things will go
(Things will go)
But certainty is just for show
(Just for show)

[Chorus]
Out of bounds
(Foul ball)
Or on the line
(… this time…?)

… fair and true
(What will it do?)

[Refrain]
Which way will it land
(Out of our command)
Which way will it fall
(Is it a foul ball?)

Which way will it land
(Out of our command)
Which way will it fall
(Is it a foul ball?)

[Bridge]
[Instrumental]
[Organ solo]

Come on!
(Come on!)

[Guitar solo]

It’s in play
(Take it away!)

[Final Chorus]
Out of bounds
(Foul ball)
Or on the line
(… this time…?)

[Final Refrain]
Which way will it land
(Out of our command)
Which way will it fall
(Is it a foul ball?)

Which way will it land
(Out of our command)
Which way will it fall
(Is it a foul ball?)

Foul ball!
(Foul ball!)
Fair ball!
(Fair ball!)

[Outro]
Watch it fly
(Watch it fly)
Taking flight
(Into the night)
