Variations on the Class-6

by jolly roger brat

If there's one thing Sofia and her friends and family love, it's singing! They even like new people singing old favorites. I own none of the songs; they belong to their original artists.

4. Elena and Gabby's ghostly duet

If James and Sofia can sing this Mary-Kate and Ashley song as they try to help Amber feel better after her encounter with Sir Dax's ghosts in Ghostly Gala, let's see what Elena and Gabby can do with it! I thought it would be fun if, as part of their Halloween party in Miss Milly's class, they sing the song that Amber and James taught them, since everyone likes a good ghost story. Mary-Kate and Ashley's music is not mine.

Elena: It floats up the staircase, it floats down the hall.
Floats into my bedroom, right through the wall.

Gabby: It glides past my dresser, to the bedpost. I swear.
I'm looking at a ghost! Naaaaa!

Elena and Gabby: There's no such thing!
It's not a ghost, because there's no such thing.
I can't be frightened of a globby, green glow,
'Cause I know there's no such thing.

Gabby: It picks up some playing cards and shuffles the pack.
It goes to the kitchen, it fixes a snack.

Elena: It plays the piano, it swings on the swing.
It does a lot considering there's no such thing.

Gabby: Then it boots my computer, as quick as you please.
It floats on the keyboard. It presses some keys.

Elena: "What creature might you be?" comes up on the screen.
I type in, "a human being."

Gabby: Suddenly, the rooms grows as icy as winter,
And something came out of the printer...

Elena and Gabby: "No such thing! You can't be human, cause there's no such thing.
Those human stories, they scare ghosts so,
But we know there's no such to thing!"

Elena: Now hold the phone! I'm really real!

Gabby: "You're not!"

Elena: I am!

Gabby: "Are not!"

Elena: You're wrong, I cried.

Gabby: "All right, let's play a game of cards to decide."
"Okay. Whoever wins the game, that one's real."

Elena: He types out, "You got it. Now deal!"

Gabby: I ask him for aces, he types out "Go fish."

Elena: He asks me for sevens. I type out "You wish!"

Gabby: "Jacks?"

Elena: "Sorry."

Gabby: "Queens?"

Elena: "No."

Gabby: "Sixes?"

Elena: "Uh-uh."

Gabby: "Twos?"

Elena: We play for a hour, and guess what?

Elena and Gabby: I lose!

Gabby: "No such thing. Ah-ha! You don't exist! There's no such thing!"

Elena: It made me crazy to be told where to go
By something who's no such thing.

Gabby: The story now is over, the story is through.
And some of you may even think this story is true.

Elena and Gabby: But, there's no such thing.
It didn't happen, 'cause there's no such thing.
I made the whole thing up, so I outta know.
And I know there's no such thing.
There's no such thing.
There's no such thing.

Elena: I hope!
