"Alright so what do we do about this?" We look at the Warblers stranding across from us "We tied and they only gave one trophy along with one spot"
"Well I think we are both grown enough to agree to a sing off" I give a nod and the boy who said his name is Blaine steps forward "We were announced first so I think we should go first"
"Alright" I hold my hand out "Nonbiased and May the best team win?"
"Of course" He smirks and shakes my hand "The warblers will love to shout you out at regionals"
There is oh's and burns all over the room. I glare at my club members who quickly look away. I shake my head and motion for them to start. Blaine nods and they behind to sing.

[BLAINE & (THE WARBLERS)]
At first we started out real cool
Taking me places I ain't ever been
But now you're getting comfortable
Ain't doing those things you did no more
You're slowly making me pay for things
Your money should be handling
And now you ask (Mmmm) to use my car (Car)
Drive it all day (Mmmm) and don't fill up the tank
And you have the audacity (Mmmm)
To even come and step to me
Ask to hold (Mmmm) some money from me
Until you get your check next week
You trifling (-Ling) good for nothing type of brother
Silly me! (Me) Why haven't I found another?
A baller when times get hard I need someone to help me out
Instead of a scrub like you who don't know what a man's about
[BLAINE with THE WARBLERS]
Can you pay my bills?
Can you pay my telephone bills?
Do you pay my automo' bills?
If you did then maybe we could chill
I don't think you do
So you and me are through
[BLAINE & (THE WARBLERS)]
Now you've been (Mmmm) maxing out my card (Card)
Gave me bad credit (Mmmm), buyin' me gifts with my own ends
Haven't paid (Mmmm) the first bill
But instead you're headin' to the mall
Goin' on shopping sprees perpetrating (Mmmm)
Telling your friends that you be ballin'
And then you (Mmmm) use my cell phone (Phone)
Callin' whoever (Mmmm) that you think's at home
And then when the bill comes (Mmmm)
All of a sudden you be acting dumb
Don't know where none of these calls (Mmmm) come from
When your momma's number's here more than once
You trifling (-Ling) good for nothing type of brother
Silly me! (Me) Why haven't I found another?
A baller when times get hard I need someone to help me out
Instead of a scrub like you who don't know what a man's about
[BLAINE with THE WARBLERS]
Can you pay my bills?
Can you pay my telephone bills?
Do you pay my automo' bills?
If you did then maybe we could chill
I don't think you do
So you and me are through
You triflin' good for nothing type of brother
Oh silly me why haven't I found another
You triflin' good for nothing type of brother
Oh silly me why haven't I found another
Can you pay my bills?
Can you pay my telephone bills?
Do you pay my automo' bills?
[BLAINE]
(Pay my telephone, telephone bills)
[BLAINE with THE WARBLERS]
If you did then maybe we could chill
I don't think you do
So you and me are through
[(BLAINE) & THE WARBLERS]
Can you pay my bills? (Ohh noo)
Can you pay my telephone bills?
Do you pay my automo' bills? (Can you pay my bills)
If you did then maybe we could chill
[BLAINE & THE WARBLERS]
I don't think you do (No, no)
So you and me are through
The club claps and I sigh as I start to. He was really good and honest. They are a really good team. I sigh and start to speak but stop when my club starts singing.

[MERCEDES]
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothin' to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Livin' life in peace
Yoo-hoo-ooh
[ARTIE & MERCEDES]
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you will join us
And the world will be as one
[RACHEL & LUCY]
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
[NEW DIRECTIONS]
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
Yoo-hoo-ooh
[MERCEDES]
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you will join us
And the world will live as one
"That was amazing!" We all look as the head of the board comes in "That is what we wanted! Man I am so happy they are letting you both move on! The state may offer pay raises!"
"Wait we both moved on?" He nods and I look at Blaine "I guess we will be seeing each other at regionals"
"I guess so" He leans back into the warblers with a smile "See you around rivals"
"Right back at you" I turn but snap "The trophy is ours this month!"
There is laughter and the club shares a group hug with me. I will get regionals planned out better. No more last minute plans. We can not win by luck again.
We have to be ourselves...original even.
