A/N: Wow, I didn't expect anyone to read this thing. I mean, karaoke fics are seriously overdone. But hey, if five people like it, then I not one to deprive them! Anyway, this chappy is Dib, which you all knew. Enjoy!

Operation: Karaoke
Act II - Dib

---

*Dib stands on the stage, microphone in hand. Zim sits sullenly off to one side, having lost the impromptu Go Fish match the two played to determine the first singer. Dib's trying to get the attention of the party, but as usual no one is listening to him*

Dib: Hello!

*No one listens*

Dib: Anyone?

*Again, no one listens*

Dib: Excuse me! I'm gonna sing now

Zim: *laughs* No one will listen to you, you pathetic worm! You may as well give up and bow down to the great talents of the mighty ZIM!

Dib: Watch it, green boy.

Zim: *snicker*

Dib: Hmm... *snaps fingers* I got it! *Tarzan yells into microphone*

*Surprise, surprise, no one listens*

Dib: Rats, I was sure that that would get their attention. *sob* Why won't they pay any attention to me! *sob*

Megumi: *gets that 'You made my favorite character cry, you die now' look in her eyes. She goes up and has a whispered conversation with the DJ*

Fillmore: *nods* Disco. *a bit louder* DISCO!

Crowd: *stops and looks at Fillmore in fear*

Megumi: *sweet smile* Listen to Dib, or Fillmore'll play all disco, all night. So there.

Dib: Yay! Ahem. I will now sing-

Crowd: *cringe*

Dib: Cosmic Castaway, by LIT!

Crowd: *sigh of relief*

Dib: With my lyrics!

Crowd: *moan*

Zim: *cackle* This is gonna be good...

Megumi: *sets camera to record*

Dib: *nods to DJ. Music starts.*

He wants to try and take my world / That, I wont let him do
I know that I can win the day / If I just see it through
They've laughed but now I'll prove that I wasn't kiddin'
I'll show the world what he has tried to keep hidden
I'll blow Zim's cover now
Then maybe they'll see

Zim: *pales*

Dib: I'm not crazy like they say
Tryin' everyday
To make Zim go away
Just want them to see
I'm not crazy like they say
Though sometimes I may
Seem that way

Zim: Blast! The Dib-human can actually sing!

Megumi/Gretchen: *dreamy sigh*

Dib: The kids at skool don't give a care / But I think that's okay
And I bet I could disappear, no one'd notice anyway
But I got a cause and I will fight until I beat Zim
If no one helps me I will win by myself, then
Maybe they all will see
What I've been sayin'

I'm not crazy like they say
Tryin' everyday
To make Zim go away
Just want them to see
I'm not crazy like they say
Though sometimes I may
Seem that way

I win the day / I'll show the world / Yes I will beat Zim
I'll make them see that he's just some no good alien
I'll blow his cover now
Then maybe they'll see

I'm not crazy like they say
Tryin' everyday
To make Zim go away
Just want them to see
I'm not crazy like they say
Though sometimes I may
Seem that way

*Wild applause from Megumi and Gretchen, who turns a bright shade of pink when Dib looks her way. Everyone else breathes a collective sigh of relief that it's over*

Zim: *grudgingly* Not... Bad... Human. But the mighty ZIM will make fair better noise than your puny human vocal cords could ever produce! Mwahahaha! I shall, of course go-

Red/Purple: Right after us!

Zim: My Tallest! What do you-

Red: Since we're taller than you are, we get to go first!

Purple: And we got a great song to do... Is stage equipped for a smoke machine?

Red: And lasers?

Megumi: Uh huh. Comes standard. So, what are you guys gonna sing?

Red: That's for us to know, and you to find out...

A/N... Again: In case anyone was wondering, Fillmore (the DJ) is from this neat new Disney series that I adore and highly recommend. He's in my fic because... Well, because 1) I needed a DJ, I wasn't about to do it, and he's DJ material, and 2) because it's my fic and I can do whatever the heck I want to, so... Nya. Oh and one more thing. While not an activist, I do in fact support Dib/Gretchen romance. Sorry all you ZADR lovers, but if Dib weren't straight I'd have nothing to fantasize about.
