Karaoke Night 3: Solos Chapter 2, a ninja turtles fanfic

Chapter Two

Master Splinter sighed. "Are you ready, Michalangelo?"

"SHELL, YEAH!" Mikey yelled excitedly.

"Here we go, then." Master Splinter turned on the screen.

It's . . .

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Even though the sound of it

is something quite atrocious

If you say it loud enough you'll

always sound precocious

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Um diddle diddle diddle

um diddle ay!

"Let me guess...He picked this song for himself?" Raph asked.

"Oh, will you stop? Try to have fun? Ok?" Leo replied.

"Yeah, right...I'd rather fight the Shredder alone then have fun here..."

"Really?"

Raph thought what it would be like fighting the Shredder alone. "No."

Because I was afraid to speak

when I was just a lad

Me father gave me nose

a tweak

and told me I was bad

But them one day I learned

a word

That saved me achin' nose

The biggest word I ever heard

And this is how it goes: Oh!

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Even though the sound of it

is something quite atrocious

If you say it loud enough you'll

always sound precocious

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Um diddle diddle diddle

um diddle ay!

"He's such a freak..." Raph said.

"At least he's having fun! And trying to make everyone else have fun! The least you could do is pretend!" April whispered.

"Why are you yelling at me? Look at Casey!"

"Casey's not complaining, though. You are."

"He's not complaining because he's asleep!"

April turned around and saw Casey's head on the table snoring. "Idiot..."

He traveled all around

the world

And everywhere he went

He'd use his word and all

would say

"There goes a clever gent"

When dukes and maharajas

pass the time of day with me

I say me special word and then

they ask me out to tea

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Even though the sound of it

is something quite atrocious

If you say it loud enough you'll

always sound precocious

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

Um diddle diddle diddle

um diddle ay!

"Casey...?" April started poking Casey.

So when the cat had got

your tongue

There's no need for dismay

Just summon up this word

and then

You've got a lot to say

But better say it carefully or it

could change your life . . .

She's

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!

"Casey...?" April started poking Casey again.

"Thank you! Thank you!" Mikey started bowing.

"Very good, Mikey..." Raph barley clapped. "This is so boring..." Raph whispered to himself.

"Raph! You can go next!" Mikey hopped off the stage.

"What?" Raph glared at him.

"Come on! You never have any fun! This is your biggest chance in a lifetime!" Mikey started dragging him up on the stage.

"I'll take the Shredder now!" Raph turned back around to Leo.

Leo shook his head.

Donnie just laughed his head off.

"I'll get you next, Donnie! I swear I will!" Raph shook his fist.

"Master Splinter?" Mikey asked. "You can play the song now."

"Master Splinter...Don't." Raph glared at him.

"Just get it overwith like I did," Master Splinter turned the song on. "The faster you do it, the faster you'll be able to get on with whatever you want to do."

Proud of your boy
I'll make you proud of your boy
Believe me, bad as I've been ma
You're in for a pleasant surprise

I've wasted time
I've wasted me
So say I'm slow for my age, a late bloomer
Okay, I agree

"What the shell is this?" Raph asked.

That I've been one rotten kid
Some son, some pride, and some joy
But I'll get over these lousin' up,
Messin' up, screwin' up times

"What? I never screw up!" Raph glared at Mikey. "Remind me to kill you after this..."

"This is hilarious!" Leo laughed and whispered to Donnie.

"I know! I mean, how many times a day do you hear Raph sing?" Donnie tried so hard not to laugh.

You'll see ma, now comes the better part
Someone's gonna make good
Cross his stupid heart
Make good and finally make you
Proud of your boy

Tell me that I've been a louse and a loafer
You won't get a fight here, no ma'am
Say I'm a goldbrick, a goof-off, no good
Well that couldn't be all that I am

Water flows under the bridge
Let it pass, let it go
There's no good reason that you should believe me
Not yet, I know, but

"I gotta get out of here..." Raph said under his breath.

Someday and soon
I'll make you proud of your boy
Though I can't make myself taller,
Or smarter or handsome or wise

I'll do my best what else can I do?
Since I wasn't born perfect
Like Dad or you
Mom I will try to
Try hard to make you
Proud of your boy

"Am I done, yet?" Raph asked.

"You didn't even do anything except complain." Mikey said.

"So? At least I got up on the stage. What else do you want?"

"To sing, maybe."

"Sorry. Ask me later."

"Then--"

"Not litterally, though."

"Raphael, who is going to sing next?" Master Splinter asked.

Raph turned around and gave Donnie and Leo an evil smile. "I was going to call Donnie up there and make him embarass himself, but I heard Leo make that comment about me, so I say Leo can go next."

"I'm going to kill you..." Leo got up and walked on stage.

"Ha. Ha." Raph sat down.

"Are you ready, Leonardo?" Master Splinter yawned.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah..." Leo gave Raph one more glare before he started. Raph smiled and waved as a reply.

Where is the moment we needed the most
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue skies fade to grey
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carryin' on

You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces everytime
And I don't need no carryin' on

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

"Why am I singing this? This isn't me." Leo stated.

"Just shut up and sing!" Raph yelled.

"Oh, like you did?" Leo shot back.

"Shut up..." Raph glared at him.

"We're suppose to be having fun tonight, but so far all I've seen are turtles and rats glaring at each other..." April shook head.

Well you need a blue sky holiday
The point is they laugh at what you say
And I don't need no carryin' on

You had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down and you really don't mind
You had a bad day

Oh... Holiday...

Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well oh that strong
And I'm not wrong

"I like this song!" Donnie started bouncing in his seat. "It has a good beat!"

"I know, me too!" Mikey agreed.

Raph rolled his eyes. "I hope I die in my sleep tonight..."

So where is the passion when you need it the most
Oh you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost

Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me don't lie
You work at a smile and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
You've seen what you like
And how does it feel for one more time
You had a bad day
You had a bad day

Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day
Had a bad day

"Ok! Ok! I am done! I'm not singing anymore songs!" Leo walked off stage.

"You have to sing one more song." Mikey said.

"What?" Raph walked over to him.

"We're all doing duets after this." Mikey smiled.

"Really?" Donnie asked. "This is awesome!"

"This is stupid..." Raph banged his head on the same wall again.

Leo stopped him. "Will you knock it off? Either your going to give yourself a really bad headach or your going to crack your skull open!" Leo started walking Raph back to the table they were sitting at.

"Leo, who's next?" Donnie was already on stage.

"Um, I guess you can be?" Leo got confused.

"Thanks! Hit it, Master Splinter!" Donnie was about to start singing but then they heard a door open.

"Now who did you invite?" Raph asked.

"No one." Mikey admitted truthfully.

"No one?"

"I'm serious. And I normally don't say that."

"So, how can I trust you?"

"Anyone for a fight?" Shredder randomly asked.

"What are you doing here?" Leo asked.

"Dad and I got bored and decided to come fight you guys." Karai replied.

"We're kinda in the middle of something, though," Raph said. "Even thought I would rather fight, but..."

"You can join us!" Mikey smiled.

"What? Are you nuts!" Raph exclaimed.

"Apparently so!" Mikey grabbed Shredder's arm. "Follow me!"

"I can walk myself, Turtle!" Shredder broke out of Mikey's grip.

"Then hurry up." Mikey was already on the stage.

Shredder stepped up. "What am I doing?"

"We're having a karaoke night! Your going to play with us, ok?" Mikey asked.

"How old is he?" Karai asked.

"Five." Raph answered.

"I'm--What?" Shredder looked around and watched Mikey leave the stage.

"Wait, Mikey!" Donnie said. "I thought I could go next! I wanna sing!"

"You will." Mikey said.

"When?" Donnie sounded depressed.

"After Karai."

"Since when am I singing?" Karai asked to Leo.

"Who knows?" Leo answered.

"When's Karai singing?" Donnie asked.

"After Shredder sings." Mikey answered.

"When's Shredder singing?"

"Right now."

Donnie looked up at Shredder and handed him the microphone. "Ok." Donnie still sounded depressed, but sat down at the table next to Mikey.

"Seriously," Leo leaned over to Raph. "Who's the oldest? Mikey or Donnie?"

"Mikey, but Donnie is acting like the youngest, now can you let me pay attention?" Raph replied quickly.

"You want to listen to Shredder sing?"

"This is the only time that I'll be able to see my enemy make a fool of himself. I'm not missing a single second of it."
