CHAPTER II ~ THE UNEXPECTED GUESTS
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Sakura was sitting in between Syaoran's legs as they sat on the small verandah out the front talking. "So Tomoyo, anything exciting happen today?" asked Sakura out of the blue. "No not really, why do you ask?" "Oh, I'm just curious about the small gold ring you've got on your finger" she said as everyone turned their heads to look. Tomoyo went a bright pink. "When were you planning on telling us?" asked Sakura looking at her. Tomoyo sighed before answering. "I didn't want to spoil your party, so I was going to tell you the next time we talked" "Tomoyo you wouldn't have spoiled the party, come on.where's Eriol?" she asked as she got up. As they walked away to find him, Melin who stayed behind with Kai and Syaoran, looked at Sakura, then at Syaoran. "How do you get used to that?" asked Melin. "Used to what?" asked Kai. "Sakura, she's changed so much since she battled Terumi, how do you get used to it?" "It's easy" said Syaoran as he watched Sakura find Eriol and drag him onto the mini stage. "You just have to accept it.besides, she hasn't really changed that much at all, she's just not as innocent" he added as he looked back at Kai and Melin.
"Can I have everyone's attention please?!" came Sakura's voice over the microphone. "I have an announcement to make." everyone looked in her direction. "I've just been informed that Eriol and Tomoyo are now engaged!" she said happily as a blushing Tomoyo and Eriol received a congratulating applause. "Tomoyo, do you still have that music we made up last month?" Sakura asked in a whisper. "Yeah, it's in my bag, why?" "I just thought of something, I won't be long" and she disappeared into her room with Tomoyo's bag in hand. "Where's she going?" asked Kai. "I don't know" said Syaoran.
~15 minutes later~
Sakura came rushing out and put a cassette in a recorder. "Excuse me everyone" she said through the microphone. "I have a gift for the new fiancés" she said smiling. Everyone watched as Sakura pressed the play button.
Do you remember, when you where 7?
And the only thing that you wanted to do,
Was show your mum that you could play the piano,
Ten years have passed,
And the one thing that lasts,
Is that same old song that we played along, and made my mamma cry
I miss those days, and I miss those ways,
When I got lost in fantasies,
In a cartoon land of mysteries,
In a place you won't grow old, in a place you won't feel cold, and I'll sing
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da,
Seems I'm lost in my reflection,
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da,
Find a star for my direction,
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da,
For the little girl inside, who won't, just hide,
Don't let me see mistakes and lies,
Let me, keep my, faith and innocent eyes,
My innocent eyes,
Do you remember, when you were 15?
And the kids at school called you a fool, cos you took the chance to dream,
In the time that's past, and the one thing that lasts,
Is that same old song that we played along, and made my daddy cry,
I miss those days, and I miss those ways,
When I got lost in fantasies!
In a cartoon land of mysteries!
In a place you won't grow old! In a place you wont feel cold!
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da!
Seems I'm lost in my reflection!
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da!
Find a star for my direction!
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, d!
For the little girl inside, who wont just hide!
Don't let me see mistakes and lies!
Let me keep my faith and innocent eyes!
Under my feeling under my skin
Under the thoughts from within,
Learning the subtext,
Of the mind,
See creation how where defined,
I miss those days, and I miss those ways,
When I got lost in fantasies!
In a cartoon land of mysteries!
In a place you won't grow old! In a place you wont feel cold!
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da!
Seems I'm lost in my reflection!
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da!
Find a star for my direction!
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da!
For the little girl inside, who wont just hide!
Don't let me see mistakes and lies!
Let me keep my, faith and innocent eyes
My innocent eyes!
Everyone clapped as she finished singing. "Sakura.that was perfect, how did you know that, that music would go so well with those lyrics?" "It came to me after I found them in the rehearsing arena" she said proudly. "Can I request a song?" asked Eriol. "Huh? Sure" "Ok, how about 'I've finally found someone'?" "Okay"
(Syaoran)
I finally found someone, who knocks me off my feet; I finally found the one, who makes me feel complete...
(Sakura)
It started over coffee, we started out as friends;
It's funny how from simple things; the best things begin...
(Syaoran)
This time is different;
(Sakura)
La, la, la, la,
(Syaoran)
It's all because of you!..
It's better than it's ever been;
(Both)
Cuz we can talk it through;
(Sakura)
My favourite line was "Can I call you sometime?"
It's all you had to say...
(Both)
To take my breath away...
This is it!
Oh, I finally found someone; someone to share my life;
I finally found the one - to be with every night;
(Sakura)
Cause whatever I do,
(Syaoran)
It's just got to be you!
(Both)
My life has just begun, I finally found someone...
(Syaoran)
Did I keep you waiting?
(Sakura)
I didn't mind,
(Syaoran)
I apologize,
(Sakura)
Baby, that's fine,
(Syaoran)
I would wait forever,
(Both)
Just to know you were mine;
(Syaoran)
Ya Know - I love your hair...
(Sakura)
Are you sure it looks right?
(Syaoran)
I love what you wear...
(Sakura)
Isn't it too tight?
(Syaoran)
You're exceptional!
(Both)
I can't wait for the rest of my life... Oh This Is It! I finally found someone; someone to share my life, I finally found the one; to be with every night... (Sakura) Cause whatever I do, (Syaoran) It's just got to be you, (Both) My life has just begun; I finally found someone... (Sakura) And whatever I do. (Syaoran) It's just got to be you! (Sakura) My life has just begun... (Both) I finally found someone...
Everyone claps as they finish their song. "Thanks you guys" said Eriol. "No prob" said Syaoran. "Can I ask for an encore?" everyone turned to look at the door way. Five women were standing beside one another smiling. Four of them were giggling. Syaoran, seeing who just arrived, slapped his hand to his forehead and groaned. "What is it?" asked Sakura looking at him confused. "That's my mother and sisters" he whined. "Oh" Sakura said trying to contain her laughter. "Can we ask for another song?" asked Syaoran's mother again. "Sure Mrs Li, what one would you like?" asked Sakura politely. Syaoran's mother thought for a while then said "Unchained Melody". Syaoran's eyes went wide. "Why in the world do you want that one??" he wailed. "Because it's a very beautiful and special song" replied his mother smiling. Syaoran turn red. "But it's not finished yet!!" he complained. But it didn't faze his mother. "What is this 'unchained melody' Syaoran?" asked Sakura. Syaoran blushed a deeper red. "Haven't you told her Syaoran?" asked Fuutie. "Why don't you tell her now?" she added. Syaoran sighed. "Syaoran?" asked Sakura. He looked at her. "You don't have to if you don't want to" "Its okay, I'll tell you. I originally wrote this song for you Sakura. I wrote it while I was at home training. I missed you so much, and whenever I felt sad, I'd sing this song"
Lonely rivers flow, to the sea, to the sea, To the open arms, of the sea, yeah, Lonely rivers sigh, wait for me, wait for me, I'll be coming home, wait for me, yeah,
Oh, my love, my darling, I've hungered for your touch, A long, lonely time, And time goes by so slowly, And time can do so much, Are you still mine?
I need your love, I oh I need your love, God speed your love to me,
(Just music)
Lonely rivers flow, to the sea, to the sea, To the open arms, of the sea, yeah, Lonely rivers sigh, wait for me, wait for me, I'll be coming home, wait for me, yeah,
Oh, my love, my darling, I've hungered, hungered for your touch, A long, lonely time, And time goes by so slowly, And time can do so much, Are you still mine?
I need your love, I oh I need your love, God speed your love to me..yeah.
When he finished, Sakura was nearly on the verge of tears. "You wrote that, for me?" she choked out. "Yeah, I used to sing that to myself all the time" he smiled seeing how moved she was by it. Sakura jumped into his arms, thanking him. Syaoran blushed. His sisters were laughing at his predicament. "Well, I think Sakura and the Brat should get some rest because they've got to get up early to rehearse for their next concert" said Touya. "TOUYA!!" yelled Sakura. "Don't call him a 'Brat'!" Syaoran sweat dropped. 10 minutes later, they were all asleep, waiting for the next day to come...
~The Big Day~
"Hoooeeeeeeeeeee!!" whined Sakura. "Sakura, try to settle down" said Kero. "HOW CAN I SETTLE DOWN?? WE'RE GOING TO BE PERFORMING ON LIVE TELEVISION!!" Kero, Syaoran and the gang all sweat dropped. "Sakura, you've been preparing for this for weeks now, you'll be fine" assured Tomoyo. But Sakura was unfazed by her comments. "Syaoran do something will you? We can't have her going on stage like this!" said Tomoyo. "What do you want me to do? I've tried just like you have" Syaoran complained. He looked at Sakura's face, sparkling in the light from the glitter on her face. He lifted his hand and gentle placed it under her chin. She immediately looked at him. He looked back at her, soft emerald connecting with warm brown. He then gently pulled her into a passionate kiss. "Everything will be alright, okay? You'll do just fine" She nodded then sweat dropped. "What?" asked Syaoran. Only one word was needed to explain - Tomoyo. (Her and her pesky camera.lol) A few minutes later, they took their places on stage. All the girls were dressed up in sporty, Sailor Moon outfits, while the boys were dressed in flashy t-shirts and jeans. (Syaoran, Eriol, Kai, Melin, Tomoyo, Rita and Chiharu are the background singers - BGS = Background singers) (BGS - without music)
Never want to fly,
Never want to leave,
(Sakura - now with music)
Never want to say what you mean to me, (BGS) Never want to run,
Frightened to believe, (Sakura) You're the best thing, of about me. (music gap) (Sakura) Sometimes I feel like, this is only chemistry,
Stuck in a maze, searching for a way to,
Shut down turn around feel the ground beneath me, (BGS) You're so close, (Sakura) Where do you end?
Where do I begin?
Always pushing and pulling, (BGS)
Sometimes vanity takes vacation time on me, (Sakura)
I'm in a daze, stumbling bewildered, (BGS)
North of gravity head up in the stratosphere, (Sakura)
You and I, roller coaster riding love,
You're the centre of adrenalin,
And I'm beginning to understand! (All) Never want to fly,
Never want to leave, (Sakura)
Never want to say what you mean to me! (All)
Never want to run,
Frightened to believe, (Sakura)
You're the best thing about me. (music gap) (BGS) Walk on broken glass make my way through fire, (Sakura)
These are things I would do for love, (BGS)
Farewell peace of mind kiss goodbye to reason, (Sakura)
Up is down the impossible occurs each day,
This intoxication thrills me!
I only pray it doesn't kill me!! (All) Never want to fly,
Never want to leave, (Sakura)
Never want to say what you mean to me! (All)
Never want to run,
Frightened to believe, (Sakura)
You're the best thing about me. (Another music gap) (Sakura) You're the centre of adrenalin,
And I'm beginning to understand~!
You could be the best thing about me, oh ho, (All) Never want to fly,
Never want to leave, (Sakura)
Never want to say what you mean to me! (All)
Never want to run,
Frightened to believe, (Sakura)
You're the best thing about me. (Repeat chorus and fade) Song ends. The audience erupts with applause. "Thankyou, let's keep this show rolling hey?" asked Sakura, who was now calmer. (Sakura) I believe the sun should never set upon an argument,
I believe we place our happiness in other people's hands,
I believe that junk food tastes so good because it's bad for you,
I believe your parents did the best job they knew how to do,
I believe that beauty magazines promote low self esteem,
I believe I'm loved when I'm completely by myself alone, (All) I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned,
I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned,
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side,
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye, (Sakura) I believe you can't control or choose your sexuality,
I believe that trust is more important than monogamy,
I believe your most attractive features are your heart and soul,
I believe that family is worth more than money or gold,
I believe the struggle for financial freedom is unfair,
I believe the only ones who disagree are millionaires! (All) I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned,
I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned,
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side,
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye. (Sakura) I believe forgiveness is the key to your unhappiness,
I believe that wedded bliss negates the need to be undressed,
I believe that God does not endorse TV evangelists,
I believe in love surviving death into eternity! (All) I believe forgiveness is the key to your unhappiness,
I believe that wedded bliss negates the need to be undressed,
I believe that God does not endorse TV evangelists,
I believe in love surviving death into eternity! (Sakura) I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned!
I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned!
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side!!
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye~!
Until you say goodbye!
Ohh, no, no, no, no, no, (Slowly fade) Once again, the audience erupted with an ear piercing applause. "Now, Syaoran and my good friend Eriol here are going to sing you 'Don't Pay the Ferry Man'!" said Sakura. (Sakura is now taking the place of Syaoran as a BGS. { } means BGS) (Syaoran)
It was late at night on the open road,
speeding like a man on the run,
A lifetime spent preparing for the journey.
He is closer now and the search is on,
reading from a map in the mind:
Yes there's that ragged hill ,
and there's a boat on the river. (Eriol) And when the rain came down,
he heard a wild dog howl
There were voices in the night
{Don't do it!}
Voices out of sight
{Don't do it!}
Too many men have failed before,
whatever you do.! (All) Don't pay the ferryman!
Don't even fix a price!
Don't pay the ferryman!
Until he gets you to the other side. (Syaoran) In the rolling mist, then he gets on board,
now there'll be no turning back,
Beware that hooded old man at the rudder.
And then the lightning flashed and the thunder roared,
and people calling out his name,
And dancing bones that jabbered-and-a-moaned,
on the water. (Eriol) And then the ferryman said "There is trouble ahead,
So you must pay me now."
{Don't do it!}
"You must pay me now."
{Don't do it!}
And still that voice came from beyond,
whatever you do.! (All) Don't pay the ferryman!
Don't even fix a price!
Don't pay the ferryman!
Until he gets you to the other side. Don't pay the ferryman!
Don't even fix a price!
Don't pay the ferryman!
Until he gets you to the other side. (Syaoran) Don't pay.the ferry man! Music for the next song started, as it did, the audience went wild.! (Syaoran) Me with the floorshow,
Kickin' with your torso,
Boys getting high,
And the girls even more so,
Wave your hands if your not with the man,
Can I kick it?
{Yes you can}
I got,
{Funk}
You got,
{Soul} (All)
We got everybody, (Syaoran)
I've got the gift,
Gonna stick it in the goal,
It's time to move your body, (Kai)
Babylon back in business,
Can I get a witness?
Every girl, every man,
Houston, can you hear me?
Ground control, can you feel me?
Need permission to land, (All)
I don't wanna rock, DJ,
But your making me feel so nice,
When's it gonna stop, DJ?
Cos you're keepin' me up all night, (Syaoran)
Singin' in the classes,
Music for your masses, (All)
Give no head,
No backstage passes, (Syaoran)
Have a proper giggle,
I'll be quite polite,
But when I rock the mic,
I rock the mic ,
{Right}
You got no love, then you're with the wrong man, (All)
It's time to move your body, (Syaoran)
If you can't get a girl,
But your best friend can,
It's time to move your body, (Eriol)
I don't wanna be sleazy,
Baby just tease me,
Got no family planned,
Houston, can you hear me?
Ground control, can you feel me?
Need permission to land, (All)
I don't wanna rock, DJ,
But you're making me feel so nice,
When's it gonna stop, DJ?
Cos you're keeping me up all night,
I don't wanna rock, DJ,
But you're making me feel so nice,
When's it gonna stop, DJ?
Cos your keeping me up all night, (Kai)
Pimpin' aint easy,
Most of them fleece me,
Every night,
Pimpin' ain't easy,
But if you're sellin' it,
It's alright, (The Boys)
Come on! (All)
I don't wanna rock, DJ,
But you're making me feel so nice,
When's it gonna stop, DJ?
Cos you're keeping me up all night,
I don't wanna rock, DJ,
But you're making me feel so nice,
When's it gonna stop, DJ?
Cos you're keeping me up all night,
The crowd applause, whistle and koo-ee as they all head backstage for their first break.

Sakura was sitting in between Syaoran's legs as they sat on the small verandah out the front talking. "So Tomoyo, anything exciting happen today?" asked Sakura out of the blue.

I need your love, I oh I need your love, God speed your love to me..yeah.
When he finished, Sakura was nearly on the verge of tears. "You wrote that, for me?" she choked out. "Yeah, I used to sing that to myself all the time" he smiled seeing how moved she was by it. Sakura jumped into his arms, thanking him. Syaoran blushed. His sisters were laughing at his predicament. "Well, I think Sakura and the Brat should get some rest because they've got to get up early to rehearse for their next concert" said Touya. "TOUYA!!" yelled Sakura. "Don't call him a 'Brat'!" Syaoran sweat dropped. 10 minutes later, they were all asleep, waiting for the next day to come...
~The Big Day~
"Hoooeeeeeeeeeee!!" whined Sakura. "Sakura, try to settle down" said Kero. "HOW CAN I SETTLE DOWN?? WE'RE GOING TO BE PERFORMING ON LIVE TELEVISION!!" Kero, Syaoran and the gang all sweat dropped. "Sakura, you've been preparing for this for weeks now, you'll be fine" assured Tomoyo. But Sakura was unfazed by her comments. "Syaoran do something will you? We can't have her going on stage like this!" said Tomoyo. "What do you want me to do? I've tried just like you have" Syaoran complained. He looked at Sakura's face, sparkling in the light from the glitter on her face. He lifted his hand and gentle placed it under her chin. She immediately looked at him. He looked back at her, soft emerald connecting with warm brown. He then gently pulled her into a passionate kiss. "Everything will be alright, okay? You'll do just fine" She nodded then sweat dropped. "What?" asked Syaoran. Only one word was needed to explain - Tomoyo. (Her and her pesky camera.lol) A few minutes later, they took their places on stage. All the girls were dressed up in sporty, Sailor Moon outfits, while the boys were dressed in flashy t-shirts and jeans. (Syaoran, Eriol, Kai, Melin, Tomoyo, Rita and Chiharu are the background singers - BGS = Background singers) (BGS - without music)
Never want to fly,
Never want to leave,
(Sakura - now with music)
Never want to say what you mean to me, (BGS) Never want to run,
Frightened to believe, (Sakura) You're the best thing, of about me. (music gap) (Sakura) Sometimes I feel like, this is only chemistry,
Stuck in a maze, searching for a way to,
Shut down turn around feel the ground beneath me, (BGS) You're so close, (Sakura) Where do you end?
Where do I begin?
Always pushing and pulling, (BGS)
Sometimes vanity takes vacation time on me, (Sakura)
I'm in a daze, stumbling bewildered, (BGS)
North of gravity head up in the stratosphere, (Sakura)
You and I, roller coaster riding love,
You're the centre of adrenalin,
And I'm beginning to understand! (All) Never want to fly,
Never want to leave, (Sakura)
Never want to say what you mean to me! (All)
Never want to run,
Frightened to believe, (Sakura)
You're the best thing about me. (music gap) (BGS) Walk on broken glass make my way through fire, (Sakura)
These are things I would do for love, (BGS)
Farewell peace of mind kiss goodbye to reason, (Sakura)
Up is down the impossible occurs each day,
This intoxication thrills me!
I only pray it doesn't kill me!! (All) Never want to fly,
Never want to leave, (Sakura)
Never want to say what you mean to me! (All)
Never want to run,
Frightened to believe, (Sakura)
You're the best thing about me. (Another music gap) (Sakura) You're the centre of adrenalin,
And I'm beginning to understand~!
You could be the best thing about me, oh ho, (All) Never want to fly,
Never want to leave, (Sakura)
Never want to say what you mean to me! (All)
Never want to run,
Frightened to believe, (Sakura)
You're the best thing about me. (Repeat chorus and fade) Song ends. The audience erupts with applause. "Thankyou, let's keep this show rolling hey?" asked Sakura, who was now calmer. (Sakura) I believe the sun should never set upon an argument,
I believe we place our happiness in other people's hands,
I believe that junk food tastes so good because it's bad for you,
I believe your parents did the best job they knew how to do,
I believe that beauty magazines promote low self esteem,
I believe I'm loved when I'm completely by myself alone, (All) I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned,
I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned,
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side,
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye, (Sakura) I believe you can't control or choose your sexuality,
I believe that trust is more important than monogamy,
I believe your most attractive features are your heart and soul,
I believe that family is worth more than money or gold,
I believe the struggle for financial freedom is unfair,
I believe the only ones who disagree are millionaires! (All) I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned,
I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned,
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side,
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye. (Sakura) I believe forgiveness is the key to your unhappiness,
I believe that wedded bliss negates the need to be undressed,
I believe that God does not endorse TV evangelists,
I believe in love surviving death into eternity! (All) I believe forgiveness is the key to your unhappiness,
I believe that wedded bliss negates the need to be undressed,
I believe that God does not endorse TV evangelists,
I believe in love surviving death into eternity! (Sakura) I believe in Karma what you give is what you get returned!
I believe you can't appreciate real love until you've been burned!
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side!!
I believe you don't know what you've got until you say goodbye~!
Until you say goodbye!
Ohh, no, no, no, no, no, (Slowly fade) Once again, the audience erupted with an ear piercing applause. "Now, Syaoran and my good friend Eriol here are going to sing you 'Don't Pay the Ferry Man'!" said Sakura. (Sakura is now taking the place of Syaoran as a BGS. { } means BGS) (Syaoran)
It was late at night on the open road,
speeding like a man on the run,
A lifetime spent preparing for the journey.
He is closer now and the search is on,
reading from a map in the mind:
Yes there's that ragged hill ,
and there's a boat on the river. (Eriol) And when the rain came down,
he heard a wild dog howl
There were voices in the night
{Don't do it!}
Voices out of sight
{Don't do it!}
Too many men have failed before,
whatever you do.! (All) Don't pay the ferryman!
Don't even fix a price!
Don't pay the ferryman!
Until he gets you to the other side. (Syaoran) In the rolling mist, then he gets on board,
now there'll be no turning back,
Beware that hooded old man at the rudder.
And then the lightning flashed and the thunder roared,
and people calling out his name,
And dancing bones that jabbered-and-a-moaned,
on the water. (Eriol) And then the ferryman said "There is trouble ahead,
So you must pay me now."
{Don't do it!}
"You must pay me now."
{Don't do it!}
And still that voice came from beyond,
whatever you do.! (All) Don't pay the ferryman!
Don't even fix a price!
Don't pay the ferryman!
Until he gets you to the other side. Don't pay the ferryman!
Don't even fix a price!
Don't pay the ferryman!
Until he gets you to the other side. (Syaoran) Don't pay.the ferry man! Music for the next song started, as it did, the audience went wild.! (Syaoran) Me with the floorshow,
Kickin' with your torso,
Boys getting high,
And the girls even more so,
Wave your hands if your not with the man,
Can I kick it?
{Yes you can}
I got,
{Funk}
You got,
{Soul} (All)
We got everybody, (Syaoran)
I've got the gift,
Gonna stick it in the goal,
It's time to move your body, (Kai)
Babylon back in business,
Can I get a witness?
Every girl, every man,
Houston, can you hear me?
Ground control, can you feel me?
Need permission to land, (All)
I don't wanna rock, DJ,
But your making me feel so nice,
When's it gonna stop, DJ?
Cos you're keepin' me up all night, (Syaoran)
Singin' in the classes,
Music for your masses, (All)
Give no head,
No backstage passes, (Syaoran)
Have a proper giggle,
I'll be quite polite,
But when I rock the mic,
I rock the mic ,
{Right}
You got no love, then you're with the wrong man, (All)
It's time to move your body, (Syaoran)
If you can't get a girl,
But your best friend can,
It's time to move your body, (Eriol)
I don't wanna be sleazy,
Baby just tease me,
Got no family planned,
Houston, can you hear me?
Ground control, can you feel me?
Need permission to land, (All)
I don't wanna rock, DJ,
But you're making me feel so nice,
When's it gonna stop, DJ?
Cos you're keeping me up all night,
I don't wanna rock, DJ,
But you're making me feel so nice,
When's it gonna stop, DJ?
Cos your keeping me up all night, (Kai)
Pimpin' aint easy,
Most of them fleece me,
Every night,
Pimpin' ain't easy,
But if you're sellin' it,
It's alright, (The Boys)
Come on! (All)
I don't wanna rock, DJ,
But you're making me feel so nice,
When's it gonna stop, DJ?
Cos you're keeping me up all night,
I don't wanna rock, DJ,
But you're making me feel so nice,
When's it gonna stop, DJ?
Cos you're keeping me up all night,
The crowd applause, whistle and koo-ee as they all head backstage for their first break.
