"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.

(Lyrics from genius)

[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.
