Alvin and the Chipmunks
Chipmunks Origins: Noah
My name is Noah Jagers-Seville. This is the story of how I became a Seville. It starts in Ireland, where I was born. A forest fire wiped out the entire forest I was born in, killing everyone, except for me. I then found the McPherson Home for Orphans. For the first few years, life was good. But when Mr. McPherson died and his son took over, life was a living heck.
One day, I decided to run away to America, the land of Opportunity and Democracy. Luckily, Alvin and the Chipmunks, my favorite musical group, was on tour. When they were boarding their boat, I snuck aboard and hid below deck. Being on a boat made break into an ol' sailor tune of my country.
Sail away where no ball and chain
Can keep us from the roarin' waves
Together undivided
But forever we'll be free
So sail away aboard our rig
The moon is full and so are we
Seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
So the years rolled by and several died
And left us somewhat reelin'
Johnny strummed his Tommy gun
Left blastin' through the ceiling
What became of rebels
Who sang for you and me?
Grapplin' with their demons
In the search for liberty
Sufferers who suffer all
Can swim upon the desert
Avarice has ravaged all
In spite of good intentions
Don't fill your mouth with gluttony
For pride will surely swell
But nothing's unforgiven
In the four corners of Hell
So sail away where no ball and chain
Can keep us from the roarin' waves
Together undivided
But forever we'll be free
Sail away aboard our rig
The moon is full and so are we
Seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
Seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
I envy and it's evil twin
It crept in bed with slander
Idiots, they gave advice
Both sloth it gave no answer
Anger kills the human soul
With bitter tales of lust
While Pavlov's dogs keep chewin'
On the legs they never trust
Oh, sail away where no ball and chain
Can keep us from the roarin' waves
Together undivided
But forever we'll be free
Sail away aboard our rig
The moon is full and so are we
Seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
We're seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
But it's the only life we'll know
Blagards to the bone
So don't wreck yourself, take an honest grip
For there's more tales beyond the shore
Ah, the years rolled by and several died
And left us somewhat reelin'
In and out came crawlin' out
And spewed upon the ceiling
What became of rebels?
That sang for you and me
Grapplin' with their demons
In the search for liberty
Sail away where no ball and chain
Can keep us from the roarin' waves
Together undivided
But forever we'll be free
Sail away aboard our rig
The moon is full and so are we
Seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
Sail away where no ball and chain
Can keep us from the roarin' waves
Together undivided
But forever we'll be free
Sail away aboard our rig
The moon is full and so are we
Seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
Seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
Seven drunken pirates
We're the seven deadly sins
Unfortunately, when we sailed into in Los Angles, California, The captain found me. "Ah-ha! A stowaway. You are in big trouble, kid!" he yelled, grabbing me by the collar of my tattered sweater. "What's going on back here, Captain?" I heard a voice say. Simon, the blue-clad, bespectacled chipmunk walked into the cargo hold.
"I found this ugly, ragged stowaway hiding here, hoping to hitchhike to America." the captain said. "Well... he's got a point." I said. I was a mess. I was wearing a ragged, torn green sweater with patches, my hair was long and unruly and my feet were bare. Then Theodore, the pudgy, green-clad chipmunk walked in. "I think we can help him. What's your name?" he asked. "My full name is Noah Thomas Jagers. I can work for you to pay my airfare. I'm a good singer." I said. I then broke into song.
I wanna be a billionaire so fricking bad
Buy all of the things I never had
Uh, I wanna be on the cover of Forbes magazine
Smiling next to Oprah and the Queen
Oh every time I close my eyes
I see my name in shining lights
A different city every night oh
I swear the world better prepare
For when I'm a billionaire
Yeah I would have a show like Oprah
I would be the host of, everyday Christmas
Give Noah a wish list
I'd probably pull an Angelina and Brad Pitt
And adopt a bunch of babies that ain't never had it
Give away a few Mercedes like here lady have this
And last but not least grant somebody their last wish
Its been a couple months since I've single so
You can call me Noah Claus minus the Ho Ho
Get it, he he, I'd probably visit where Katrina hit
And darn sure do a lot more than FEMA did
Yeah can't forget about me stupid
Everywhere I go Imma have my own theme music
Oh every time I close my eyes
I see my name in shining lights
A different city every night oh
I swear the world better prepare
For when I'm a billionaire
Oh oooh oh oooh for when I'm a Billionaire
Oh oooh oh oooh for when I'm a Billionaire
I'll be playing basketball with the President
Dunking on his delegates
Then I'll compliment him on his political etiquette
Toss a couple milli in the air just for the heck of it
But keep the fives, twentys (?) completely separate
And yeah I'll be in a whole new tax bracket
We in recession but let me take a crack at it
I'll probably take whatever left and just split it up
So everybody that I love can have a couple bucks
And not a single tummy around me would know what hungry was
Eating good sleeping soundly
I know we all have a similar dream
Go in your pocket pull out your wallet
And put it in the air and sing
I wanna be a billionaire so fricking bad
Buy all of the things I never had
Uh, I wanna be on the cover of Forbes magazine
Smiling next to Oprah and the Queen
Oh every time I close my eyes
I see my name in shining lights
A different city every night oh
I swear the world better prepare
For when I'm a billionaire oooo,oooo when I'm a billionare
ooo,oooo when Im a billion-
I wanna be a billionaire so frickin bad!
Simon laughed. "I think he'll be a valuable addition to the band." he said. Theodore came up and hugged me. "I think he can be a valuable addition to the family." he said. "Thanks, but I must decline. I am a peasant and will live with my own people. Farewell, Alvin and the Chipmunks. May God permit us meeting again someday." I said. Then I jumped off the ship and set off on my own. That night, as I slept, shivering in the cold, three unknown people carried me to a bed.
The next morning, I woke up in a huge bedroom. It had a 70 inch plasma screen TV on the opposite wall, my own soda bar, and a... jacuzzi? What the heck? On a chair near me, a brand new green sweater hung. When I went downstairs, following the scent of chocolate chip pancakes, Theodore greeted me. "Hey, Noah; What do you like on your pancakes? Maple or strawberry syrup?" I shook my head. "I can't stay, Theodore." I said. "Why not, Noah? Your singing voice would be a major improvement." Simon said. "At least stay for breakfast." Alvin said. My stomach growled. "Well, I am a little hungry." I said. While the Chipmunks were eating, I sang a classic Irish ditty.
I raise me glass i hum a tune
and suddenly Ireland's in this room
so gather round to its health
home-skiddly-doo ree!(home-skiddly doo ree)
i smell the hills i used to roam
the cool wet marsh where heather's grown
I'll soon return when me work is done
home-skiddly doo ree!(home-skiddly doo ree)
i may travel continents to towns and ports of consequence
but all in all, there's just one place for me
a pub can bring my dreams so near
so join me in a toast of cheer
and sing with me of home that i love so
i feel the breeze the Irish air
and now the feeling is everywhere
so drink up boys, I'll soon be there
home-skiddly doo ree (home skiddly doo ree)
so drink up boys, help me there
home-skiddly doo ree! (home-siddly doo ree)
Simon laughed. "I seriously think you should stay. Please, just consider." he said. "Well..." I said, looking , I caught Theodore's expression. His brown eyes were huge, his nose was twitching, and his lower lip was... quivering. I can never turn down a face like that. "OK." I said.
Later that day, at school, a bully cornered Theodore and I. "Hey, buddy, move your can. We're late for lunch." I said. "Who's gonna make me, nerdinator? You or Chubby eye Joe over here?" the bully said. Tears appeared in Theodore's eyes. "Lay off my brother, pal. You don't want to mess with me." I said. "What will you do, nerd boy?" the bully asked. In response, I socked him unconscious. "That is what I'll do." I said. Theodore was amazed. "How did you that?" He asked. "When you live in Irish hell, you learn a few tricks." I said, blowing across my fist.
Later, at lunch, Simon said, "Noah, there's some friends I want you to meet. These are our girlfriends, the Chipettes" 4 female chipmunks sat near us. An amber haired one in pink, named Brittany. She was Alvin's girlfriend. Theodore's girlfriend was a green dress wearing, strawberry blond haired chipmunk named Eleanor. Simon's girlfriend was Jeanette. She wore a purple T-shirt, a blue jean jacket, magenta glasses, a blue skirt, and blue shoes. But there was one more. She had straight blond hair like me, an emerald green dress,and green eyes. "Oh, this is Annabeth. We just adopted her. She's from Northern Ireland." Jeanette said.
The next day was Valentine's Day. After we passed out Valentines, we'd attend a dance (music provided by yours truly.) I made Veronica, a girl I sort of liked, a personal Valentine's Day card. it said,
Veronica,
I am glad we are friends. I hope it never ends. I was hoping that we could be more. After all, it's what Valentine's day is for.
from,
Noah
When we passed them out, I saw Veronica open the card and make a face. Then she looked at me and made a rude gesture with her hand. Craaaaackk! My heart was broken. Then, I noticed a very beautiful card at the bottom of my basket. It said,
Dearest Noah,
Acids are red, Bases are blue, Since we've met, I've always loved you. (and I still do) Do you feel the same? love,
Annabeth
I did not answer the Valentine. Instead, during the dance, I sang my response.
I made a special valentines card for a girl I like
I gave it to her in class with all the rest I watched her open it out of the corner of my eye
She read it then went right on to the next
I felt so broken hearted we were over before we started
I guess she didn't like what I wrote, I spent forever on that stupid love note.
It said:
I'm glad you and I are friends and I hope that never ends
But I've been thinking we could be more
That's what Valentine's Day is for
Then I noticed my friend Annabeth was smiling at me
She was holding the card she wasn't supposed to be
She walked right over and got really close to me
I never noticed it before but her eyes were- P-r-e-t-t—–y
She said: I'm glad you and I are friends and I hope that never ends
But I've been thinking we could be more
That's what Valentine's Day is for
Then my heart started pounding and my knees went weak
My friend Annabeth kissed me on my cheek
I felt so happy hearted, look at what my mess-up started
I took her hand and said:
I'm glad you and I are friends and I hope that never ends
But suddenly I'm thinking we could be more
That's what Valentine's Day is
That's what Valentine's Day is for
Annabeth leaped on stage. "So, what's your answer?" she asked. Suddenly, I leaned in and kissed her full on the lips. "Does that answer you're question?" I asked. We kissed again while everyone said, "Awwwwww!"
