Fathers And Sons Playing Catch - Kerry Zukus

Demo. Book, music, and lyrics by Kerry Zukus. Vocal by Kerry Zukus.

"The Honeymooners Musical" is a musical-comedy interpretation of the classic television sitcom, set in its most memorable period, the mid-1950's.

The next day at work, Ralph latches onto an opportunity: pretending to be a Little League baseball coach to curry favor with his boss through coaching his son.

Fathers And Sons Playing Catch,
Out for a long, hot afternoon,
Without a care, except catch the ball;
Throw it back; harder than ever before,
'Til it feels like you can throw it right
through a wall;
Strong and free.
Go take a run in a field of green,
Circling under a long fly ball.
Fathers And Sons Playing Catch.

And it's one, two, three strikes you're out.
Go grab a bat and we'll hit some more out.
Play 'til the suns just a little red dot.
Fathers And Sons Playing Catch.

Time grows;
The arm and the back and the hair goes.
Scoreboards are changed into time clocks.
A new bunch of kids become adults.
The balls and the gloves move to closets
And games become memories and lies
As we try to impress other guys
With legends of days that went by,
Bittersweet 'til the moment that I
Can run out to a park again
Being the man like the man I looked up to
When I was just a small boy.
Fathers And Sons Playing Catch.

And its one, two, three strikes; you're out.
Go grab a bat and we'll hit some more out.
Play 'til the sun's just a little red dot.
Fathers And Sons Playing Catch.
And it's one, two, three strikes; you're out.
Go grab a bat and we'll hit some more out.
Play 'til the sun's just a little red dot.
Fathers And Sons Playing Catch.
Fathers and sons,
And the sons become fathers with sons
Playing catch.
