about

A collection of songs written for the Manton Avenue Project.
In each case, I am given a set of lyrics written by an Elementary school student, and I create a song around them.
Each lyric is written by a different student for the same collection of plays with a connecting theme.
These lyrics are UNEDITED
I do not know the names of the various writers
