Note: This takes place in Metru Nui. We are going to add Broadway to the Bionicle world, just so you know. Later characters may be added and we shall repost the entire list, incase you forget who is who. We are also using the script to help us. Names, lyrics, and some words were changed to fit the story. All Matoran wear clothing.
Chapter 6: Why Guys do Things for Their Dolls
The Mission Band marched along Broadway, playing 'Follow the Fold.' Amaya held up a sign that read "There is no peace unto the wicked— Proverbs 23, 9 (X'ed out) Isaiah 57, 22." Kai followed with a trombone, Tamaru behind her with a cornet, Kongu behind him with drums and cymbals, and Hahli in the rear with her tambourine. Sky follows them, Hahli receptive to his company. The pretty Ga-Matoran gave an annoyed flounce. None of them notice Takua following them, stalking them. Kopeke walked after Takua, who'd just noticed him.
"Hey, Takua!" Kopeke called, observing the direction of his friend's gaze. "What are you looking at?" Takua looked at him delighted.
"Sky was just following Miss. Hahli, and you should have seen her." He imitated her snootiness. "She give him a look that would have cooled off a Kane-Ra Bull at mating time."
"Great! Just so he won't take her to Le-Koro."
"Le-Koro! He couldn't take this doll to Ga-Metru— Where's Hewkii? He ought to start lining up the game."
"I don't know— I suppose trying to see Macku. She's mad at him again." He peered off at the Colloseum clock.
"That Miss. Macku. She is always taking his mind off honest work."
"Yes, it's too bad that a smart businessman like Hewkii has to go and fall in love with his own fiancée."
"Kopeke, that is his weakness, and we should be tolerant, because I am told that it is a worldwide weakness. Look!"
What's playing at the Roxy (He pointed to the movie theater across the road)
I'll tell you what's playing at the Roxy (He pointed to himself)
A picture about a Po-Matoran,
So in love with a Ga-Matoran (Fluttered his eyes)
That he sacrifices ev'rything
And moves all the to Biloxi
That's what's playing at the Roxy.
(What's in the daily news) (He picked up a newspaper)
(I'll tell you what's in the daily news)
He showed a newspaper to Takua. The Ta-Matoran read a bit of it.
(Story about a guy) (He pointed to the story)
(Who bought his wife a small ruby,)
(With what otherwise would have been his daily dues)
(That's what's in the daily news.)
He put the paper away.
What's happening all over? (Spead his arms out to Broadway)
I'll tell you what's happening all over.
Guys sitting at home by a television set,
Who one used to be something of a Rover.
That's what's happening all over
Love is the thing that has licked 'em
And it looks like Hewkii's just another victim.
Yes sir,
When you see a guy, (He pointed both hands at himself)
Reach for stars in the sky, (Pointed to the sky)
You can bet that he's doing it for some doll. (Did a girlish pose)
(When spot a john waiting out the rain)
Kopeke pulled up the collar of he blue checkered coat.
(Chances are he's insane) (swirly signs on both sides of his head)
(As only a John can be for a Jane.)
When you meet a gent
Paying all kinds of rent
For a flat that could flatten the Taj Mahal! (Raised hands upward, palms up)
Call it sad, (Frowned)
Call it funny, (Smiled)
But it's better than even money (Box stepped around each other)
They pounded their fists.
That the guys only doing it for some doll.
Kopeke leaned against his friend.
(When you see a joe) (Right hand in 'L' shape over eyes and on forehead)
(Saving half of his dough)
(You can bet there'll be a mink in it for some doll.)
When a bum buys wine
Like a bum can't afford (Pulled out his pockets)
It's a cinch that the bum
Is under the thumb of some little broad.
(When you meet a mug,)
(Lately out of the jug,)
(And he's still lifting platinum folderol)
He gestured his hand with plucking.
Call it hell, (Pointed downward)
Call it heaven, (Pointed upward)
It's probably twelve to seven
That the guy's
They pounded their fists.
Only doing it for some doll. (They pointed to a Ga-Matoran)
A pretty Ga-Matoran, followed by a Le-Matoran lugging around tons of boxes, walked past them. Takua and Kopeke watched as the Ga-Matoran dropped a handkerchief on the ground. The Le-Matoran bent down and picked it up, dropping a few boxes as he did so. He handed her hankie to her and scooped up the boxes. The two continued down the street, him dropping boxes every three bios.
(When you see a sport)
(And his cash has run short)
(Make a bet that he's banking it on some doll.)
When a guy wears tails
With the front gleaming white
Who the hell do you think
He's tickling pink (Kopeke acted like a female, hand over mouth, and pretending to giggle. Takua held his other hand while on one knee)
On Saturday night?
(When a lazy slob takes a good, steady job)
(And he smells from Vitalis and Barbasol
Call it dumb, (Kopeke pointed to Takua, Takua pointed to himself, as if offended)
Call it clever, (They both pointed to Kopeke, who smiled)
Ah, but you can give odds forever
That the guy's only going it
For some doll, some doll, some doll,
The guy's only doing it for some doll!
