I don't own Austin, Ally, Dez, or Trish. Just like I don't own the songs that I'm using. :(
Austin's P.O.V.
Puerto Rico
My heart's devotion
Let it sink back in the ocean
Always the hurricanes blowing
Always the population growing
And the money owing
And the sunlight streaming
And the natives steaming
I like the island Manhattan (I know you do!)
Smoke on your pipe
And put that in!
I could here Ally singing from the top of her lungs inside her room. I was about to ask her about the new song, but apparently, she was too busy watching the classical musical 'West Side Story'. I know that eavesdropping was a rude thing but this was just priceless.
I like to be in America
Okay by me in America
Everything free in America
I can recognize this voice too, it's Trish. So, they were having a party without me? Now, that's rude. Oh, yes! I have the best idea ever!
For a small fee in America
I enter the room singing with a Puerto Rican accent, causing the two girls, and Dez, to look at me with a surprised face. Suddenly, Ally smirked and walked towards me.
Buying on credit is so nice
One look at us and they charge twice
I pretended to look towards another direction and then created a two with my hand. This made Ally laugh.
I'll have my own washing machine
Trish jumped in.
What will you have though to keep clean?
Dez stood up and walked towards me.
Skyscrapers bloom in America
Ally sang.
Cadillacs zoom in America
Trish sang.
Industry boom in America
They both sang. Then Dez and I looked at each other and smiled.
Twelve in a room in America
We all started dancing and Ally and I took the next few lines.
Lots of new housing with more space
She pretended to be talking to Trish about it.
Lots of doors slamming in our face
Dez pretended to slam a door in my face while a faked a pout.
I'll get a terrace apartment
Ally walked towards me and collocated her arm in my waist.
Better get rid of your accent
I touch her nose playfully while I put my arms around her shoulders.
Life can be bright in America
She removes her are from my waist and walks toward a side of the room with Trish.
If you can fight in America
Dez and I take two steps closer to them.
Life is all right in America
They take two to steps towards us. We were now really close, face to face.
If you're all white in America
Dez and I walked to the other side of the room, where the girls were before. Then we start dancing.
La, la, la, la, la, la, America
La, la, la, la, la, la, America
La, la, la, la, la, la, America
La, la, la, la, la, la, America
Here you are free and you have pride
They sing as if they were talking while walking to the side we were before.
Long as you stay on your own side
We look at them
Free to be anything you choose
They look at us
Free to wait tables and shine shoes
Dez and I laugh and high-five each other. I was about to sing the next line, when I notice that this wasn't the original version, but the glee version.
I like to be in America
Okay by me in America
Everything free in America
Trish and Ally sing and I immediately catch up.
For a small fee in America
We start dancing goofily around the place.
I like to be in America
Okay by me in America
Everything free in America
For a small fee in America
Dez joins me this time.
La, la, la, la, la, la, America
La, la, la, la, la, la, America
La, la, la, la, la, la, America
La, la, la, la, la, la, America!(1)
We belt out the last note like if it was our life. We end up laughing our souls out. And then I suddenly think about how lucky I am for get to being american.
I hope you enjoyed it!
