"So!" Mr. Schue clapped his hands, signalling the start of session. "Who wants to go first?" he asked, and unsurprisingly, Rachel's hand shot up.
"Rachel?" he pointed to the female lead, to which many of the members rolled eyes at. The short girl went to the pianist and gave the sheet music, and then went in the middle of the room with a bright smile.
"A few days ago, I discovered a channel on Youtube named 'StarkidPotter'," she started, to which Blaine paled at. Kurt looked at him with a raised eyebrow, but he shook his head and looked straight at Rachel, who was wearing a devious smile on her face.
"I saw that there were a few musicals on there, such as A Very Potter Musical, and A Very Potter Sequel," she looked at Blaine pointedly, who audibly gulped. "I had seen both in a matter of a few hours, and I've got to say that this song made an immediate connection with me," she said, and then she signaled Brad to start the music.
"I am going to sing Bonnie Gruesen's 'The Coolest Girl', written by Blaine Anderson," Kurt looked at the mentioned person with raised eyebrows and mouthed 'What?'. "From the sequel, enjoy."
All my dreams,
I'm chasing after
They don't need,
All this laughter
She sang, looking at the Cheerios and the jocks with narrowed eyes, before continuing.
I take a grain of salt
Stiff upper lip
It's not their fault, I'm not as hip
Wake up, kid, you know you're more than this
She went to get an empty chair and sat on it, legs crossed with her hands on them.
I'm the smartest person
That I've ever met
So why do I allow myself?
To possibly forget?
She stood up and kicked the chair to the side.
There's so much I know how to do
So much more than all of you
She pointed to the audience with a determined face.
The only thing I wish I knew
Is how to make you see
The girl that I can be
I am
The coolest girl in the whole wide world
I know it, but can't show it at all
I am
Sick and tired of low, not higher
Places where I should belong
She gestured to the ground, knees bent, before standing up again.
It's about time I prove them wrong!
Gimme a shot
To show what I've got!
I'm a helluva whole lot more!
She smirked before putting a hand on her mouth.
Than this frizzy hair,
These frumpy clothes I wear
Though I rock 'em like nobody you've ever seen before!
'Cause I am
The coolest girl in the whole wide world
I know it, below it all
I am,
Done with losing on with choosin'
She looked at the windows, beyond the glee clubbers, and sang with more pride and passion than she ever did
The coolest girl on the face of the planet
The coolest bitch on earth goddamit!
Mike and Puck cheered her on, and Mercedes started saying 'You go, white girl!'
The coolest chick you've ever seen or heard
So you can try to break me down
She pretended to trip and fall, but she stood up again, smirking and twirling in a way that would've made Michael Jackson proud.
I'm sorry guys,
I'm stickin' around!
I thought about it and I've found
That I am
The coolest girl!
Yeah!
She ended the song with a seemingly innocent smile, as the glee club whooped at the performance.
