"Hello everyone! Thanks for all the reviews. Now someone named Elvin something or other suggested that I do a group song and that gave me an idea. I'm going to have all the boys do "Numb" and all the girls do "Simple and Clean". It will all be in the same chapter to make it easier. Now, the boys will go first. You guys ready?"
"You bet," said Ritchie.
"Hold on. Don't I get a say in this?" said Ebon.
"Let me see. Thinking, thinking, thinking, no! Now get up there!"
All the boys go on stage and grab a mic. All the girls start cheering and clapping for them. Ritchie starts out.
I'm tired of being what you want me to beFeeling so faithless lost under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
Everyone but Ritchie: (Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
Chorus
H: I've become so numb I can't feel you there
I've become so tired so much more aware
I've becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you
V: Can't you see that you're smothering me
Holding to tightly afraid to loose control
Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you
(Everyone but V: Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(E but V: Caught in the undertow just caught in the undertow)
Chorus
E: I've become so numb I can't feel you there
I've become so tired so much more aware
I've become this all I want to do is be more like me and be less like you
R: And I know
I may end up failing too
But I know
You were just like me with someone disappointed in you
Chorus
E: I've become so numb I can't feel you there
I've become so tired so much more aware
I've becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you
Everyone claps and cheers.
"Take a bow guys!"
Each take a bow and walk of stage.
"Great job guys. All right girls time to sing my most favorite song in the world, "Simple and Clean"!
All the girls go on stage and grab a mic. Frieda starts out.
You're giving me too many thingsLately you're all I need
You smiled at me and said,
D: Don't get me wrong I love you
But does that mean I have to meet your father?
When we are older you'll understand
What I meant when I said, "No,
I don't think life is quite that simple
S: When you walk away
You don't hear me say please
Oh baby, don't go
Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight
It's hard to let go
D: The daily things that keep us all busy
Are confusing me
That's when you came to me and said,
F: Wish I could prove I love you
But does that mean I have to walk on water?
When we are older you'll understand
It's enough when I say so
And maybe something's are that simple
Sh: When you walk away
You don't hear me say please
Oh baby, don't go
Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight
It's hard to let it go
F: Hold me
Whatever lies beyond this morning
Is a little later on
Regardless of warning the future doesn't scare me at all
Nothing's like before
D: When you walk away
You don't hear me say please
Oh baby, don't go
Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight
It's hard to let it go
S: Hold me
Whatever lies beyond this morning
Is a little later on
Regardless of warnings the future doesn't scare me at all
Nothings like before
E: Hold me
Whatever lies beyond this morning
Is a little later on
Regardless of warnings the future doesn't scare me at all
Nothings like before
Everyone claps and cheers. A little louder than the boys I might add.
"Good job guys."
"Thanks," they all reply.
"Just so you guys don't get confused D stands for Daisy, S for Sharon, Sh for Sharice (sp?) or Shebang, and F for Frieda. Well, I hope you guys enjoyed it. That is my Christmas present to you. Now everyone including myself has something to say to you guys. It's a little early but I might not be able to post another chapter tomorrow. You guys ready?"
Everyone nods.
"Okay. Here goes." (Remember, I'm saying it to.)
"MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD NIGHT!!!"
