Song 9: "Only Human"
It might be nice to live forever, might be good to not get tired
Never need to eat or drink, to not get ill and feel so wired
Not need books and be connected to the world wide web instead
All the knowledge for our homework living here inside our head
All that po-wer, all that strength, just wouldn't make us ha-ppy
We'd miss the thing that makes us who we are...our hu-man-ity!
We're only human, but being human makes us proud
Only human, sing it strong and sing it loud!
Only human, but being human makes us proud
Only human, sing it strong and sing it loud!
​
Being people, human beings with all our faults and all our flaws
Think for ourselves to make decisions, humans beings pick their course
Who we are, defined by choices, even when we get them wrong
Express ourselves with art and theatre, music, dancing...singing songs!
All that po-wer, all that strength, just wouldn't make us ha-ppy
We'd miss the thing that makes us who we are...our hu-man-ity!
We're only human, but being human makes us proud
Only human, sing it strong and sing it loud!
Only human, but being human makes us proud
Only human, sing it strong and sing it loud!
H...U...M.A.N...H.U.M.A.N...HUMAN!
H...U...M.A.N...H.U.M.A.N...HUMAN!
H...U...M.A.N...H.U.M.A.N...HUMAN!
H...U...M.A.N...H.U.M.A.N...HUMAN!

(key change)
We're only human, but being human makes us proud
Only human, sing it strong and sing it loud!
Only human, but being human makes us proud
Only human, sing it strong and sing it loud!
​
HUMAN!
