~ This is kind of a parody to one of my favorite Buffy episodes Once more with feeling. If you don't watch Buffy don't worry this only sprung with the idea from the episode no Buffy characters are in this. So you don't have to worry about not getting any inside jokes or anything like that. It's all turtles… music! And of course I don't own any of the characters, yada, yada, yada.
All the songs, will have a bold letter for who is singing them and will be in italics.

Ring
Leonardo fumbled for the alarm clock searching desperately to shut the annoying ringing off. Finally smacking it onto the floor, Leonardo stretched out of bed and began doing his morning five-minute wake up exercise. It almost seemed that theme music was following him and his brothers around the lair. Filing out towards the bathrooms, each turtle had their own sink but only one shower, which Leonardo hopped into first. As the rest of the turtles finished brushing their teeth, they filed in line, Donatello, Michelangelo and joining last was Raphael. Splinter being up earlier was already done with his morning duties. While waiting Raphael was getting inpatient and started to pace around the lair.
R: I simply cannot stand this
Leo is just taking too long.
How can you guys just stand there
Waiting for him to come out.
D: He's got a temper
Never knew how to hide it
Wait a minute
This is suppose to be Raph's solo.
R: I'm getting pissed now
Leo's been in there for fifteen minutes
Why isn't he finished
Turn off the water
So I can go in there and take my shower…
As Raphael trailed off the water turns off and Leonardo steps out as soon as he is dried. "Did I hear singing?" Leonardo asked. Raphael dropped his mouth open realizing that he burst into song in front of his brothers.
"Oh, hell," Raphael cursed and went into the bathroom a head of his other two brothers.
"Raphael broke into song." Michelangelo stated still in shock.
"And I joined the chorus," Donatello said. "It seemed normal until we both realized what happened after the song was over."
"Weird," Leonardo murmured. Then Raphael slammed the shower door after taking the fastest shower in his life and rushed past his brothers.
"Are you okay Raph?" Leonardo called after him.
"Screw off," Raphael called from the dojo.
"He's fine," Donatello said stepping into the bathroom. After shower and practice Raphael was angrily flipping through the TV channels. Michelangelo walked in with a pizza and sat next to him.
"Want some bro?" Michelangelo offered. Raphael growled in response and kept flipping the channels. Master Splinter walked in and watched his sons for a moment.
"Easy Raph, the remote hasn't done anything to you," Michelangelo commented. Raphael only growled louder in response. Master Splinter sat in his chair and looked at his sons.
"What trouble's you Raphael?" Raphael only sighed and put the remote down. He didn't want to explain it or listen to a lecture right now.
"I think I'm going to go out, then I'll be able to talk with you about it." Raphael got up. "Is that okay Master Splinter?" Master Splinter nodded in response and watched Raphael go.
"Should I follow him Sensei?" Master Splinter told Michelangelo "It wasn't necessary."
"He just needs some time to himself." Master Splinter said. Up top Raphael didn't notice the other people at first and headed to the park. There he sat down until a couple walked by singing about love.
Person1: As long as you need me, I'll always be there.
Person2: As long as you need me
Both people: As long as you need me.
Raphael shook his head then shook it off some couples like to sing over themselves he guessed. Getting up he walked towards a fountain and paused. There was a group of people all dancing in unison and singing.
Group: The fountain here is the place to be
A wonderful addition to our memories
So exciting in the world today
To be by this fountain hooray!
Backing away Raphael ran back to the lair to tell Master Splinter and his brothers about what he saw. Inside he saw them all gathered around the TV watching April doing a news report.
"All over the city, people will randomly burst into song. It seems that no one is safe from the craziness that has consumed our city. Will we find out what is happening? Only time will tell."
The TV was shut off and the turtles turned to look at Raphael.
"There was people, all singing and dancing…"
"We know Raph," Donatello interrupted. "April was just doing a report on it."
"Master Splinter do you know what could be causing this?" Leonardo asked.
"Yeah, man, I really don't want to burst out singing and dancing." Michelangelo added.
"You already do that," Raphael said lightly punching Michelangelo in shoulder.
"Oh yeah?" Michelangelo smiled then paused. "Hey wait a minute!"
"Hi guys," April came inside, followed by Casey. "Anyone here singing yet?"
"Yeah, Raph this morning," Michelangelo laughed then flinched as Raphael hit his arm again.
"No way, and you can still hear?" Casey joked. Raphael cracked his knuckles but then smiled at Casey to let him know he was joking.
"Do you know what's going on, Master Splinter?" April asked sitting down. Master Splinter shook his head.
"I'm not sure it could be anything."
L: For all we know
It could be Shredder
With an evil plan
But wait singing is not his style
D: For all we know
It could be pollution
The smog can get so thick
Who knows what weird effects it may have.
All: For all we know this could go on out
It's kind of scary
How anyone can start singing
Out loud.
C: When I find who
Is responsible for this
I'm going to bust
Some heads
Knock them out
And then run away from the cops
So I don't get thrown in jail.
M: For all we know
It could be aliens
Everyone pauses and just looks at Michelangelo.
R: For all--
M: I'm telling you it's
Aliens from outer space
It's little green men
Who've come from Mars to take over the Earth
Green men with antennae's
Aliens! Aliens, it must be aliens!
Everyone is just looking at Michelangelo again and he shrugs.
M: I think I had bad pizza.
R: We got to figure out why this last
This is getting on my nerves really fast.
A: We'll figure something out
S: As long as we stay together
There's nothing we can't stand up to
As long as we stay together
No sacrifice
No matter what the price
We'll think this through
C: I'm still beating heads too
All: As long as we stay together
There's nothing we can not do
We just have to find this source
And we'll get through
As long as we stay together.
M: I still say it's aliens.
Raphael looks at his brother and shakes his head.
"Aliens, you are a weird turtle to have a peeve about little green guys," Raphael tells him.
"Why?"
"Because we are green," Raphael points out. Casey says that he's going to go up top and see if he can find any clues. April goes with him to tell him what she has already seen.
