Kurt is on face book looking at some of the warbler's profiles, when he notices that they posted a new video of their performance. He clicks on it and while he is waiting for it to buffer he views some of the comments.
Wes; I'm sorry but someone has to say this. This is really gay. 13 people like
Logan; why did we ever decide to do this anyway? 18 people like
Blane; it was my idea to do a music video because we have a lot of time now that we are no longer competing.
Kris; but why did you guys pick "Prince Charming"
David; Well all us Warblers put a song in the hot pink cowboy hat and this is the one that blaimey boy drew.
Blaine; hey don't blame me for this I did not put this song in it who did anyway?
Wes; no one knows
Kurt then leaves a comment.
Kurt; well if you guys didn't leave it in the commons when I was visiting Blaine I wouldn't have had to contribute. And Adam Ant is incredible.
Kurt; Blaine you picked me that is just so cute 3!
The glee kids have all tricked in to the choir room by this point. Hey guys you all need to watch this it will be amazing. Kurt presses play. After the first few seconds Puck says "no dudes we need to see this much bigger." He then proceeds to hook it up to the overhead projector.
While the glee kids are watching the music video Mr. Schuester comes in and gets an idea for this weeks challenge.
"Ok enough. That video got me thinking about this weeks assignment in which all of you will make your self vulnerable. This week's glee assignment is all about facing your biggest fears. It is your job to find a song about it and preform in in front of the group."
Tina asks "what does that have to do with a bunch of guys in drag?"
Schue stated simply "Public ridicule. So let's hear some fears."
"Like what Mr. Shoe?" came from Santana.
"It does not matter what it is. It could be getting a pimple, or bad grade. Even something more profound like abuse, it is all up to you."
Brittany raises her hand. "Yes Brittany?"
"Can I go now? I know what song I want to do and I feel it is time for me to have a solo since I am the best singer here."
"Um…sure. Have a go at it." Brittany whispers her song into the band's ears, and gets ready to perform.
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
The entire class is laughing at the idea of Brittany singing this song at al let alone doing a dance with it that seems just as out of place.
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who, who, who?
Who let the dogs out?
"Brittany I am going to stop you right there. What does this song have to do with fear?"
"Well duh I am afraid of dogs, and I do not like them let loose let alone by someone unknown because then they can't be put in time out." More laughter follows.
"Brittany sing the next verse then tell us all what the song is about."
Well, the party was nice, the party was pumpin'
Yippie yi yo
And everybody havin' a ball
Yippie yi yo
"Now Brittany what what's the song about?" Brittany was trying her hardest to think so Shoe helped her out "the song was about a party, not wild dogs. So I am going to have you sit down and rethink your selection."
"Fine." Arrogance dripping off the word.
"Ok group to give you all another example I will perform my song today." The piano started. Mr. Shoe does the claps then begins singing.
The silicon chip inside her head gets switched to overload
And nobody's gonna go to school today
She's going to make them stay at home
And daddy doesn't understand it
He always said she was good as gold
And he can see no reasons, 'cause there are no reasons
What reason do you need to be shown?
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays
I want to shoot the whole day down
The telex machine is kept so clean and it types to a waiting world
And mother feels so shocked
Father's world is rocked
And their thoughts turn to their own little girl
Sweet 16 ain't that peachy keen
No, it ain't so neat to admit defeat
They can see no reasons 'cause there are no reasons
What reasons do you need
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays
I want to shoot the whole day down, down, down, shoot it all down
[ Lyrics from: .com/lyrics/b/boomtown_rats/i_dont_like_ ]
And all the playing has stopped in the playground now
She wants to play with the toys of war
And school's out early and soon we'll be learning
That the lesson today is how to die
And then the bullhorn crackles
And the captain cackles with the problems and the hows and whys
And he can see no reasons 'cause there are no reasons
What reason do you need to die, die?
And the silicon chip inside her head gets switched to overload
And nobody's gonna go to school today
She's going to make them stay at home
Her daddy doesn't understand it
He always said she was good as gold
And he can see no reasons 'cause there are no reasons
What reason do you need to be shown?
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays
Tell me why?
I don't like, I don't like, (Tell me why?) I don't like Mondays
Tell me why?
I don't like, I don't like, (Tell me why?) I don't like Mondays
Tell me why?
I don't like Mondays
I want to shoot the whole day down
"Mr. Shoe, you are singing about how you do not like a day of the week what does that have to do with fear?"
"Well Rachel, the song is actually not about Mondays at all. The Boomtown Rats wrote this song after reading an article in the newspaper about a girl who shot at an elementary school and killed some kids. The reason she said that she did it was that she did not like Mondays. School shootings are my biggest fear. Not because I am at school all day but because as an educator I cannot stand to see anyone hurt in such a way especially at school which is supposed to be a safe place. One of the reasons Kurt having to transfer was so disheartening.
Well class dismissed, and remember to have a song picked out."
Mercedes and Kurt go up to the teacher after everyone else leaves, "Mr. Shoe?"
"Yes Mercedes?"
"Would it be ok if Kurt and I have some of the Warblers come by on Friday to do this assignment too?"
"If they are willing to that would be great"
"Ok I'll tell them" Kurt exclaims. He already started texting Blaine. 'Do you and the dweebs want to do our glee project with us of Friday?'
Blaine Reply's 'sure I'll get those bozos to come just tell us the dets on the project.
'Worst fears."
