Wilson finally gets to sing in this chapter but I'm not going to tell you what he's going to do. I'll just say that I don't own the song. Due to angry Fanfiction people – "I Will Survive" belongs to Gloria Gaynor.
Vogler and the rest were having a spur of the moment board meeting about the "inappropriate singing", so deemed by Vogler,that was going around. Cuddy was trying to argue back that she thought that the singing, may it be slightly inappropriate, was giving the doctors time to relax and let their feelings out. Wilson was there but in a pouty mood until Vogler made the biggest mistake of his life.
"Anyone have to make a comment?" he growled.
"I have one thing to say. . ." Wilson began. He jumped onto the huge desk. Everyone looked around, then up at Wilson as the music began…
At first I was afraid
I was petrified (lights dim)
Kept thinking I could never live
without you by my side (disco ball drops)
But then I spent so many nights
thinking how you did me wrong
And I grew strong (starts to unbutton coat)
And I learned how to get along (coat is ripped off to reveal ruffely lime green shirt, bell bottoms, peace sign necklace)
and so you're back
from outer space
I just walked in to find you here
with that sad look upon your face
I should have changed that stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
If I had known for just one second
you'd be back to bother me (begins disco dancing)
Go on now go walk out the door (every board member, except Cuddy whose forehead is in her hand and Vogler who is in a state of shock, starts dancing around the table)
just turn around now
'cause you're not welcome anymore
weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Did you think I'd crumble
Did you think I'd lay down and die
Oh no, not I
I will survive
Oh as long as i know how to love
I know I will stay alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
and I'll survive
I will survive (hey-hey)
It took all the strength I had (Wilson jumps off the table and starts dancing out the door with the board members following. Cuddy and Vogler are still in the room.Everyone is watching the procession.)
not to fall apart
kept trying hard to mend
the pieces of my broken heart
and I spent oh so many nights
just feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry
But now I hold my head up high
and you see me
somebody new
I'm not that chained up little person
still in love with you
and so you felt like dropping in
and just expect me to be free
and now I'm saving all my loving
for someone who's loving me
Go on now go walk out the door
just turn around now
'cause you're not welcome anymore
weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Did you think I'd crumble
Did you think I'd lay down and die
Oh no, not I
I will survive
Oh as long as i know how to love
I know I will stay alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
and I'll survive
I will survive
x2 (song ends. Roses fall from the ceiling. Board members stop. Wilson slides on his knees and stops in front of House.)
House looked down at Wilson who was still on his knees, arms outstretched, HUGE smile on his face and said,
" 'Dancing Queen'?" House asked, smile creeping up on his face as well.
" 'I Will Survive'." Wilson panted as he finally stood up.
"That was my next guess." House answered as they walked away together, the whole hospital watching them go.
Well, how was that for Wilson's first song! I think it was the best! He gets to have the obligation of singing the very last song. House is next and then Cuddy.
