A/N- So each chapter will contain at least one song. All songs will be in script form.

P.S. It will NOT be word for word. I haven't memorized the play, but I know plot events pretty well.

Italics: Song (for the whole story)

Chapter 1- God, I'm Gonna Turn 13

I own nothing.


"Hi, my name's Ross Lynch. I live at 224 West 92nd Street, in the heart of Manhattan. And my life just went to hell."

Ross:

"Picture me, just another cool kid in NYC, near the park and the Met

Life is sweet, Yankees in the Bronx, pretzels on the street, just how good can it get?

Who'd have guess Dad would meet a stewardess?

Mom's depressed and her lawyers are mean

Now I'm stressed, life is a disaster

And I'm cracking from the strain, going totally insane

And I'm just about to turn

Just about to turn

Just about to turn

All:

Thirteen!

Ross:

Everything switches

All:

Thirteen!

Ross:

Everything turns around

All:

Thirteen!

Ross:

End up in stitches

All:

Thirteen!

Ross:

Hide away underground

All:

Thirteen!

Ross:

Can I get through it?

All:

Thirteen!

Ross:

Life has changed over night

All:

Thirteen!

Ross:

How do I do it?

All:

Thirteen!

Ross:

Nothing is going right

All:

The best and the worst

And the most and the least

And the crazy and the scary

And I'm standing on the edge!"

"So here's the thing about turning 13," Ross said. "You immediately become more responsible and 'useful' around the house. Plus, to make things worse, my parents are getting divorced."

Ross:

"Twelve years old, everything that used to be as good as gold starts to crumble and crack

Ross with Others:

Pressure mounts, once it was a joke, now it really counts and there's no going back

All:

Life goes wrong

Noah:

Suddenly they're yelling cause your hair's too long

Aubrey:

Or your room isn't clean

All:

Roll along

Ross:

Every conversation is another lost cause or a list of my flaws

And I'm just about to turn

All:

Just about to turn

God, I'm going to turn

Thirteen!

Noah:

I want a dirt bike

All:

Thirteen!

Raini:

I want to kill my mom

All:

Thirteen!

Rocky:

I want a mustache

All:

Thirteen!

Kiersey:

I want a wonder bra

All:

Thirteen!

When do I get it?

Thirteen!

All of the grown-up stuff?

Thirteen!

How will I make it?

Thirteen!

When am I old enough?

Why is the world feeling suddenly stranger?

Why are my friends acting totally weird?

Why do I feel like my life is in danger?

Why do I feel like my brain disappeared?

Audrey:

How can I get through a year of Spanish?

Cody:

How can I not look dumb in track?

Riker:

How can I gain 20 pounds by Friday?

Calum:

How can I make my voice not crack?

All:

I wanna fly, wanna run, wanna drive

Wanna get rich, wanna get drunk, wanna get out

Wanna get my braces off

Wanna get my nose pierced

Wanna grow my hair long

But all I keep hearing is

No, you're not ready!

No, it's not time yet!

No, it's not right now!

Wait until you're older!

No, you're not ready!

No, it's not time yet!

No, it's not right now!

Wait until you're older!

No, you're not ready!

No, it's not time yet!

No, it's not right now!

Wait until you're older!

Homework

Laundry

Dishes

Courses

Just settle down and hold your horses!

Ross:

But there's one day in October

Where the pieces all will fit

When they have to be together

And pretend they didn't quit

I've got one day in October

And I know it's got to be

The perfect party

I'm becoming a man

I don't know what a man really means

The rule book grows, but no one knows

What all the rules allow

I'm becoming a man

No one tells all the scared in-betweens

Just how we should be strong, be good

With so much pressure now

One day it gets better

One day it makes sense

One day I'll stop talking in the friggin future tense

One day in October

It'll all be great

And I can't wait

I can't wait

I can't wait

Riker:

I can't wait to come to your party

Raini:

I can't wait to come to your party

Aubrey:

I can't wait to come to your party

Cody:

I can't wait to come to your party

All:

Party!

I can't wait

I can't wait

Can't wait

Can't wait

Can't wait

Can't wait

Can't wait

Cant wait for thirteen!

Something is coming

Thirteen!

Something is going up

Thirteen!

Something is humming

Thirteen!

Somebody's growing up!

Thirteen!

Keirsey:

Hey, yeahhh!

Rocky:

No, no, no, no, no, no

Calum:

Hey, yeah, yeah, hey, yeah

Aubrey:

Yeah, yeah, yeah

All:

The best and the worst

And the most and the least

And the crazy and the scary

And we're just about to turn

Thirteen!

Just then, Ross' phone rang. "Hey, mom, what's up? What? Moving?! Where? Indiana?! NO!"
