[Verse 1]
Confident with your back to the audience
Tremolo strings begin with your gesturing wrist
Start the orchestra slow with an elegant air
Then a circular sweep, crescendoing swell
Leo Slatkin, Dohnanyi, Previne, Depaur, ahh

[Chorus]
Your arms are callin' out
They wave like a swarm of sound
You pull the sound from scores of notes
You step the stage and take control
Your arms are callin' out
They wave like a swarm of sound
You pull the sound from scores of notes
You step the stage and take control

[Chorus]
Those arms are callin' out
They wave like a swarm of sound
You pull the sound from scores of notes
You step the stage and take
Control, control, control, control
Control, control, control, control
Control, control, control, control
[Outro]
(Those arms are callin' out, those arms are callin' out)
(Those arms are callin' out, those arms are callin' out)
