Silver And Gold
This song speaks to all those kids who don't feel like they fit into society's conventional standards of 'normal', and assures us that no matter what anyone else might say, everyone of us shines like 'silver and gold'. Arranged as a costume change number -- the chart begins with an optional introductory 'anthem' sung by everyone (you could also start where the brass enter at m.13). The first verse and chorus are sung by the ladies including a short solo feature, and the second verse and chorus are sung by the men. After a dance break, the women reenter and everyone sings the final third of the song.
**Sync, streaming performance, and master licenses are ALL included with the purchase of this arrangement.**
Instrumentation: Piano/Synth/Guitar/Bass/Drums/Percussion/2 Tpt/2 Tbn/Alto, Tenor Sax

You shine like silver and gold Silver and gold Silver and gold Silver and gold You were so excited Walkin’ through a brand new door Then they decided To point and whisper and ignore Don’t let it make you feel Like you don’t measure up ‘Cause they’re just blinded by their fear They can’t see the treasure you’ve become Flash me a smile, show me that bling You shine brighter than a diamond ring With a silver spirit and a heart of gold You’re worth more than a million, and I’m sold! So much dazzle in your eyes But you never throw shade When you shine the light of your soul You shine like silver and gold Sometimes life can be so hard And you start to feel so worthless Just like a beat up penny Someone threw down to the curb Nobody wants you, nobody cares Kicked around and left on the ground Well I’m here to pick you up ‘Cause I know you’re gonna bring good luck Flash me a smile, show me that bling You shine brighter than a diamond ring With a silver spirit and a heart of gold You’re worth more than a million, and I’m sold! So much dazzle in your eyes But you never throw shade When you shine the light of your soul You shine like silver and gold Go on now, show me that bling Brighter than a diamond ring Silver spirit, heart of gold Worth more than a million! So much dazzle in your eyes But you never throw shade When you shine the light of your soul You shine like silver and gold Just like silver and gold!
