RAINBOW DASH:
Ugh. I HATE. My job...

FLUTTERSHY:
Really?

RAINBOW DASH:
YES, really! You're real lucky you don't have to take any of the weather shifts.

FLUTTERSHY:
Oh, yes, I find that taking care of all the little creatures is much more-

RAINBOW DASH:
Phooey on the little creatures! What I'm talking about are all the stupid ponies at work and how my life could be put to much more important things!

FLUTTERSHY:
Like what?

(Music starts)

RAINBOW DASH:
Every day I go to Cloudsdale
Because I have no choice
They make me do things that demand things
Like my smarts, my strength, my voice

FLUTTERSHY:
Well, that isn't so bad, I mean, it's sort of-

RAINBOW DASH:
Clear the clouds!
Make some snowflakes!
Oh, go and make it rain!
Put more clouds in!
Stop the snow!
It REALLY is a pain!

And then after they give me all those lousy instructions, you know what they do?

FLUTTERSHY:
Well, um-
RAINBOW DASH:
They give me MORE lousy instructions and then they start criticizing me!

(reaches offscreen and puts on a pair of spectacles and holds a clipboard)

You left some clouds above town hall,
Your snowflakes are a wreck
You were five minutes late to work yesterday,
We'll take that off your check!

(tosses the spectacles and clipboard offscreen)

Okay, haha, I guess I made just one TEENSY little mistake...
But seriously, nopony's perfect!
Can't they just give a girl a break?!

FLUTTERSHY:
Well, if you ask me, maybe you could-

RAINBOW DASH:
Every day I wish I could just
Sleep in, eat, just relax!
That's why I LOVE my days off
But I only get two a week! Those are FACTS!

So instead I'm left getting bossed aaall day...
Why can't I do my own thing?!
I don't even get good pay!

FLUTTERSHY:
Well, I'm sorry you feel that way, Rainbow Dash, but, um...

(TRIXIE enters screen and bumps into FLUTTERSHY)

TRIXIE:
Hey! Watch it, low-life, the Great and Powerful Trixie's walking here!

FLUTTERSHY:
Oh! I am SO sorry...

RAINBOW DASH:
Watch it yourself, punk! This is my pal, and I was just complaining to her about how much I hate my job! Now scram and leave us alone so I can continue my complaining!

TRIXIE:
(sniffs) You think YOUR job is bad? Trixie is sure it's NOTHING compared to what TRIXIE has to endure. Why...

Every week Trixie has to travel
To a new town for her show
Your "Twilight" smashed her trailer!
So Trixie walks. It's truly difficult, you know!

(FLUTTERSHY looks TRIXIE up and down, recognizing her wizard costume)

FLUTTERSHY:
But...um...aren't you a magician? Couldn't you just use magic to-

TRIXIE:
Don't interrupt!

Trixie can amaze them
For two minutes
And then they start to groan
They throw vegetables
And tell her she's not
The greatest pony ever known!

RAINBOW DASH:
Um, you're not.

TRIXIE:
Can it, rainbow-colored abomination!

And yet Trixie still must carry on,
Continue with her tricks.
After all, it's a known fact that victory
Doesn't come without a few licks!

So still Trixie performs her magic shows...
Trixie may make her claim to fame!
Might even be today, who knows!

RAINBOW DASH:
The day YOU make your claim to fame is the day after forever, Great and Powerful Lamehead. MY job is the one that sucks!

TRIXIE:
Oh really?

RAINBOW DASH:
Yeah, really!

Every day I go to Cloudsdale
Because I have no choice
They make me do things that demand things
Like my smarts, my strength, my voice!

TRIXIE:
Every week Trixie has to travel
To a new town for her show
Your "Twilight" smashed her trailer!
So she walks. It's truly difficult, you know!

RAINBOW DASH:
I have to paint the rainbows!

TRIXIE:
Trixie must perform her stunts!

RAINBOW DASH:
I get to craft the lightning, yay!

TRIXIE:
Trixie's assistants are schoolboy runts!

RAINBOW DASH:
I hate my job!

TRIXIE:
I hate my life!

RAINBOW DASH:
Go to work? I think I'd rather swallow a knife!

FLUTTERSHY:
Um, can we keep this non-violent please?

TRIXIE:
Most of the towns Trixie visits have fleas!

(with this last statement, the music fades and RAINBOW DASH and FLUTTERSHY back away awkwardly)

RAINBOW DASH:
...Oookaaay...

(The music starts back up again as RAINBOW DASH begins to sing)

RAINBOW DASH:
Clear the clouds!
Make some snowflakes!
Oh, go and make it rain!
Put more clouds in!
Stop the snow!
It REALLY is a pain!

TRIXIE:
I can amaze them
For two minutes
And then they start to groan
They throw vegetables
And tell me I'm not
The greatest pony ever known!

RAINBOW DASH:
So instead I'm left getting-

FLUTTERSHY:
Oh my! I have to go...

RAINBOW DASH:
Really? But I just started ranting to you!

FLUTTERSHY:
Oh, um, I'm sorry, but that will have to wait...I have to go feed the tigers and give the skunks a bath...

TRIXIE:
T-tigers?

RAINBOW DASH:
Skunks?

FLUTTERSHY:
Oh, yes...and I also have to clean the monkey cages, play with the piranhas, make sure the bears are happy, brush the lions' manes, and wash the roof of the chicken coop...

RAINBOW DASH:
...The roof?

FLUTTERSHY:
Yes, it's where the birds like to-well, um...they happen to be attracted to the-the roof. Um-they...you know...on the...the roof...

(RAINBOW DASH and TRIXIE exchange glances)

RAINBOW DASH:
Y'know, I think I'm gonna go see if there's anything else I can do for the weather team.

TRIXIE:
Trixie better prepare for her next show...

(RAINBOW DASH and TRIXIE exit the screen as FLUTTERSHY watches)

FLUTTERSHY:
I love my job! (giggles lightly)

(FLUTTERSHY exits screen as it fades black)
