Tinkerbell used her magic to produce a CD from the box. She brought Peter up and asked him to hold the microphone for her. She sat on his shoulder and began to sing.
Everybody's waiting
Everybody's watching
Even when you're sleeping
Keep your ey-eyes open
The boys were surprised. This was a song from one of their new favorite movies that Wendy once used to get Michael to go to sleep with. Even though she thought the movie itself was too intense when she watched it, they knew Slightly played the song for her, and she had fallen in love with the Taylor Swift tune. They also knew that thanks to the movie and the books the film was based on, Nibs had developed a fascination with archery.
The tricky thing
Is yesterday we were just children
Playing soldiers
Just pretending
Dreaming dreams with happy endings
In backyards, winning battles with our wooden swords
But now we've stepped into a cruel world
Where everybody stands and keeps score
Keep your eyes open
They got another surprise when they heard Wendy start singing along.
Everybody's waiting for you to break down
Everybody's watching to see the fallout
Even when you're sleeping, sleeping
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Peter nodded. It was nice to see Tink and Wendy actually getting along enough to sing together.
Tinkerbell, however, imagined that Peter was the only person in the room as she sang.
So here you are, two steps ahead and staying on guard
Every lesson forms a new scar
They never thought you'd make it this far
Wendy joined in, But turn around (turn around), oh they've surrounded you
It's a showdown (showdown) and nobody comes to save you now
But you've got something they don't
Yeah you've got something they don't
You've just gotta keep your eyes open
The girls sang together again, Everybody's waiting for you to break down
Everybody's watching to see the fallout
Even when you're sleeping, sleeping
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes
Meanwhile, Slightly was motioning Tootles and Michael to follow him.
Wendy started the next part, Keep your feet ready
Heartbeat steady
Keep your eyes open
Keep your aim locked
The night goes dark
Keep your eyes open
Then she and Tinkerbell finished the song together.
(Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open)
Everybody's waiting for you to break down
Everybody's watching to see the fallout
Even when you're sleeping, sleeping
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
Keep your ey-eyes open
"That was incredible, Tinkerbell! But I'm sorry if I interrupted your song," Wendy said when the solo-turned-duet was finished. She also smiled at the Lost Boys, who instead of applauding, pressed the three middle fingers of their left hands to their lips and held them out to her and Tink.
"You sounded good yourself," Tinkerbell said as she sat down. "And remember that Slightly said that if anyone wants to join the singer, they can."
"Both of you were great," Slightly spoke up, "And Michael, I slightly think it's time that you got in on this, and we haven't heard Tootles yet. Do you want me to pick a song for you?"
The younger boys nodded. They knew a few songs from listening to Slightly's radio and hearing Wendy sing. They also knew some songs from movies, and decided to do another one of those.
