Irene: A Musical Comedy: The World Must Be Bigger Than an Avenue

Oh the world must be bigger
Than an avenue
9th Avenue, I know
Sure the life is grand
With family and friends
But let's face it girl
This isn't where it ends

There's a place in the land
Of opportunity
And it's calling me to go
So no matter what may happen
I'm giving it a try
I'm not gonna sit here napping
Until the day I die
Oh the world must be bigger
Than an avenue
9th Avenue goodbye

Oh, I'll find me a corner
In that world somewhere
Ms. Irene O'dare that's me
You can tell the folks
Around this neighborhood
Here's one local girl
That's bent on making good

Just to show you a hero
Who's got fancy charms
In his waiting arms I'll be
I have loved to fill an ocean
And stardust in my eye
So I'll set my feet in motion
As fast as they can fly
Oh the world must be bigger
Than an avenue
9th Avenue goodbye

Just you show me a hero
Who's got fancy charms
In his waiting arms I'll be
I have love to fill an ocean
And stardust in my eye
So I'll set my feet in motion
As fast as they can fly
Oh the world must be bigger
Than an avenue
9th Avenue goodbye

Just you show me a hero
Who's got fancy charms
In his waiting arms I'll be
I have love to fill an ocean
And Stardust in my eye
So no matter what may happen
I'm giving it a try
Oh the world must be bigger
Than an avenue
9th Avenue goodbye
