[Lyric] Something To Point To (Working: A Musical (Original London Cast))

See that building
I was the one who did the design
I was the one who drafted the plans
Ev'ry detail and ev'ry line

See that building
I ran the crane that lifted the beams
I was the guy who worked up above
Look at those bricks, those bricks are mine
Ev'ry detail and ev'ry line

See that building
Look how my door hangs in the frame
See that building
Forty flights up, I scratched my name
See that building
I'm on the staff, I worked as a guard
I clean the floors and I clean 'em good
People don't know my job is hard

See that building
Five days a week I work at a desk
I do the books
I handle thе mail
Nine on the dot I punch my card
See that window up by the lеdge
Ten from the top
See that window, count of the left
One, two, three, stop!
That's where I work!
Everyone should have something to point to
Something to be proud of

Look what I did
See what I've done
I did the job
I was the one

Everyone should have something to point to
Some way to be tall in the crowd
Proud

See that building
Day after day after day after day
That's where I put myself on the line
That's where I sweat to earn my pay
See that building

That's where I put the food on our plates
That's where I've lived a piece of my life
That's where I can bring my kids and say:
See that building

The lumber was cut
Decisions were made
See that building
The windows are washed
The site was surveyed
The memos are typed
The concrete was laid
The records are kept

The office is run
The coffee is sold
The digging was done
The building was built
For all eyes to see, by
Me!
Me!
Me!
Me!
Me!
Me!
Me!
