Blue Man Group
Boom! The audience awoke with a jolt
As if the room was a game, someone hit "Go!"
The beat and the bang of the stick on the
crumpled can was like a heartbeat that moved
through the blackened building.
The seats pounded with anticipation
The people held their breath
The walls seemed to dive
The floor seemed to sway and all of a sudden
the stage lit up with color.
Blue went the pitter patter of the tin can
Orange went the clip-clop of the base
Green went the ping of the chimes
The music became color in front of our eyes.
Blue filled the floor as it jumped to the beat
Orange went the walls as they danced.
Green went the seats as they came to life and
The people stayed dark to take in the sight.
Boom! Went the blue and turned back to black
Clip! Went the orange as it returned to night
Pong! Went the green as it darkened.
The music stopped as the color died.
