lyrics

In 1964
They built a school called Rushmore
Now it's 2010
Time to start all over again

(prechorus)
This place has spirit heart & soul
But it's also gotten tired and old

(chorus)
So we're breakin' new ground
Gonna make a new sound (3x)
Won't it be cool?
To have a new school!

A time to work a time to play
Brick by brick and day by day
And in 2011,
Gonna get a little piece of heaven

(Repeat prechorous & chorus)

(spoken word-lyrics by Jordan Hardrick)
"On the 19th of May, we say goodbye to this building
where education, inspiration, impact the children.
Seeds of greatness planted into the minds.
Nurtured & cultivated to impact mankind."

(Repeat chorus)
