"Even Stevens"
"Accurate Pitch"
The Musical
Ren Stevens sat on the bus on her way to Lawrence Junior High School, scribbling down notes for her newspaper, when suddenly, Karen, a girl in the back cries:
"The Wheels on the bus go round and round,
Round and round,
Round and round,
The wheels on the bus go round and round,
All through the town"
Everyone stares at her.
"The Wheels on the bus go round and round,
Round and round,
Round and round,
The wheels on the bus go round and round,
All through the town"
That time, Another boy Jacob joined in on the song.
"The Wheels on the bus go round and round,
Round and round,
Round and round,
The wheels on the bus go round and round,
All through the town"
This time everyone in the bus starts singing it, except for Ren.
She frowns.
"The Wheels on the bus go round and round,
Round and round,
Round and round,
The wheels on the bus go round and round,
All through the town"
"PLEASE STOP SINGING!" Ren cries.
Everyone shuts up, until five seconds later.
"I know a song that gets on everybody's nerves,
everybody's nerves,
everybody's nerves,
I know A song that gets on everybody's nerves and this is how it goes:
I know a song that gets-"
We now see Ren in the hallway walking with Ruby.
"Oh, I had the weirdest bus ride! I was just sitting there, and everybody started singing!"
"Well, there's nothing wrong with singing, Ren" Ruby says.
"I know" Ren agrees. "But… it's never happened before, I mean come on, Wheels on the bus? Isn't that a little elementary school?"
"Ren…" Ruby starts. Suddenly, she starts singing too.
"Ren,
Tell me what is wrong,
What is wrong with a song?
Come on, Ren sing along!
There's nothing wrong with a song,
So get out your singing voice and sing strong!
Start singing,
Start bringing,
Start bringing in the fans, Hey!
You could be a star somday!
Tell me what is wrong,
What is wrong with singing a song,
Come on, Ren! Sing along!
Pull out that microphone,
You don't have sing alone!
Ren, we're all singing with you!
Just don't start singing the blues!"
"Ruby, stop it! People are staring!" Ren says.
Ruby stops singing.
"Ren, we all need to put a smile on our face, it would make the world a better place"
"Would you stop rhyming too?" Ren demands.
The bell rings throughout the halls and Ren makes her way to chemistry.
