Miles.
The Xmen that were left stared in dismay at the smoking ruins of the Institute.
Lance spoke up, "You see? You see! You'll see that humans can never accept us, we were right all along! We're screwed."
Jean protested, "You're wrong! You'll see, we'll hold together."
"Everything will be OK wont it Scott?" Jamie asked, looking up with fearfull eyes.
"Of course we will." Jean answered for him, trying to keep morale up.
"Just in case you geeks haven't noticed, the manor is gone an' so is the Professor! And, oh, Everybody knows!" Tabitha yelled.
"Yeah yo! That footage is probably on global television by now! Unless professor can mind wipe the whole world we're in deep trouble yo!" Toad piped up.
"Stop being so negative! You're scaring them!" Kitty said, pointing at the new mutants.
"Oh I'm sorry are we scaring the wittle kiddies? Telling the truth?" Toad shot back.
Lance sighed, "the truth is……"
music comes out of nowhere
Lance: Everybody knows that the secret is out
Everybody knows that the robot got tossed
Everybody knows that battle is over
They don't know that the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight is fixed
A human's just human and a human gets kicked
Against super human foes
Everybody knows
Everybody knows the boats infested
Everybody knows the captain lied
Everybody got this broken feeling
Like their child is in danger of die'n
Everybody's lookin' at the dark cloud
Everybody wants to be with the crowd
When it comes to blows
Everybody knows.
Lance, Tabitha, and Toad: Everybody knows
Everybody knows
That's how it goes
Everybody knows
Lance with bitterness dripping in his voice: Everybody knows we want to take over
Everybody knows that we really do
Kurt: Everybody knows we're perfectly normal
1 Give or take a gene or two
Lance: Everybody knows we're bad to the core
All that we ever wanted is a bloody war
With tombstones in rows
Everybody knows.
Tabitha: Everybody knows that it's now or never
Everybody knows that it's us or them
Everybody knows that the food chains shifted
We're at the top right above men
Everybody's old instincts have shown
That the different, strange, and unknown
Is the source of all woes
Everybody knows.
All: Everybody knows
Yeah Everybody knows
That's how it goes
Everybody knows
Lance: Everybody knows the plague is coming
Kitty: Everybody knows its moving fast
Jean: Everybody knows that the laws of science
Tabitha: Are a shining artifact of the past
Scott: Everybody knows mutants are better dead
Toad: There's gonna be a bounty on our heads
2 That will not close
All: Everybody knows.
New Mutants: Everybody knows that we're in trouble
We all know what we're gonna go through
Scott: From the mobs of anti mutant protesters
Storm: To the burning cross of Klan Klux Ku
Lance: Everybody knows this is no time for love
Take one last look at this pearl white dove
In it's death throws.
Everybody knows.
All: Everybody knows
Everybody knows
That's how it goes
Everybody knows
Everybody knows
Everybody knows
That's how it goes
Everybody knows…..
the music dies off
Scott: well that was depressing….
