A/N: Here I be, back with more randomness. Hehehe – I'm a very random person. So far, you all found my new images of Quatermain amusing! Huzzah! Right-o, y'all wanted to hear Tom's song, so here it is!
funyun – You play softball? Huzzah! Me too! What position do you play?
Miss-Smilla – Skinner will get a solo, I promise. I've already got the perfect song for him.
Chasten-chan – Did I disturb you with that one? Hehehe… tottered. That's a fun word.
Sean M. Cogan – Plot? What is this plot thing you speak of? Actually, I can't come up with a plot for this insanity, but if you have ideas that would be great.
Lily Bengal – You should know this one. If you don't, I shall beat you with a booshy stick!
Disclaimer: You'd think by now, I'd own something. Alas, I still don't. I really must work on that problem. Anyway, the song is Mama Says from the musical, Footloose. [And I mean the Broadway version, not the movie.] Also, I had to change "Mama" to "Auntie" for the obvious reason that dear ol' Tom was raised by his Aunt Polly. XP
[For lack of a plot, or anything of the like, we find Tom, Nemo, Jekyll, and Skinner in the Nautilus' dining room. Suddenly, enter Dorian.]
Dorian: Beg pardon, but I need some advice about…
Sawyer: Well, you know what my Aunt Polly says…
Dorian [looks a little miffed about being interrupted]: Your Aunt? I frankly don't care about your Aunt.
Sawyer: Hey! My Aunt Polly happens to be a very smart woman.
[Music begins] Everything I ever learned
That gets me through the worst
I learned at my Auntie's knee
Now, anytime I'm turned around
I turn to Auntie first
And you'd be wise
To memorize
What Auntie says to me
[Proudly] Now, Auntie ain't been wrong yet. And I'm the living proof
Skinner: Take that for what it's worth! [Sawyer glares at him]
Sawyer: Auntie says
Don't use a toaster while standing in the shower
Now who can argue with that?
Auntie says
Don't hold your breath for longer than an hour
The woman knows where it's at!
And Auntie says it doesn't matter
If you're a king or you're a clown
Once you drive up a mountain
You can't back down
Now, you've not yet had the pleasure of meeting my Auntie. C'mon and help me out here, Fellas.
Skinner, Jekyll & Nemo [the Fellas]: Auntie says
Sawyer: Don't drink hot coffee lying down in bed
Don't even give it a thought
Fellas: It's a mess!
Auntie says
Sawyer: Never eat anything that's bigger than your head
Is she a whiz or what?
Fellas: Oh, yes!
Sawyer: And Auntie says it doesn't matter
If you're a king or you're a clown
Once you drive up a mountain
You can't back downOnce you drive up a mountain
You can't back down
Auntie makes a lot of sense
If you know how to listen
She is clear and concise
Others say, "I love her son,
But she's got marbles missin'."
But I say, "Hey! It's free advice,
What do you expect at that price?"
Fellas: Auntie says
Sawyer: What you believe in is all you really own
And I believe that she's right
Fellas: Auntie says
Sawyer: If you've got doubts,
Well then boy you're not alone
Just means you're ready to fight
And Auntie says it doesn't matter
If you're a king or you're a clown
Once you drive up a mountain
You can't back down, down, down, down…
Jekyll: You can turn up the heat
Nemo: You can turn up the roadSawyer: You can carry a beat
Skinner: You can carry a load
Jekyll: You can throw a fit
Nemo: You can throw a punch
Sawyer: You can bring up a child
Skinner: You can bring up your lunch! [The others give him a disgusted look]
A One, Two, Three
All: And Auntie says it doesn't matter
Sawyer: If you drive a hard bargain or drive around town
All: Once you drive up a mountain
You can't back down
Once you drive up a mountain
You can't back down!
[Sawyer exits and the music ends. Dorian is looking very relieved that this ridiculous number is over, when all of a sudden… Re-enter Sawyer.]
Sawyer: I thought of one more thing...
[Music starts again] Auntie says
Don't buy a chandelier unless you've got a ceiling
I don't know what that's about
Auntie says
Don't chew on tin foil unless you like that feeling
Somehow she figured that out
Fellas: And Auntie says
It doesn't matter
If you're a king or you're a clown
Once you drive up a mountainSawyer: Remember, boy
Everyone's countin' on you
All: Once you drive up a mountain
You can't back down!
Sawyer: That's my Auntie!
[Dorian rolls his eyes and leaves. He doesn't want to ask for advice anymore for fear it would spark another musical number.]
A/N: Ta-da! Ah, Footloose brings back special memories for me. It was the first production I've ever been in. ::sigh:: Right… now for the little previews! Next: A song by one Mr. Dorian Gray. Next after next: Our favorite gentleman thief gets his solo!
