Something in the Air

(Cast of High School Musical: The Musical: The Series)

Oh, yea-yeah

I've been waiting for this moment
It's a start of something great
And a chance to turn the page
It's my year, I'm gonna own it
Gonna take more care of me, put my self first
'Cause I deserve to be

Hanging 'round the fire when it starts to snow
Opening to someone under mistletoe
I can't wait to see what the future holds
All around I'm feeling it, I'm feeling it

There's something in the air
About to go off right now
Line up all around
I feel it coming, something in the air
A time to look forward to
Get ready for something new
I feel it coming, somеthing in the air
Something in the air

Gеtting comfy in my onesie, yeah
Let's kick back and take a break
I hopes it's an ordinary day
There's not time to relax
Got moves to make, got ground to break
Get the reindeer out the way
I'm gonna make this season's sleigh

The end and the beginning of another year
Taking in the memories that we've made right here
The tree is going up
And my roots are going down
All around, I'm feeling it
Are you feeling it?

There's something in the air
About to go off right now
Line up all around
I feel it coming, something in the air
A time to look forward to
Get ready for something new
I feel it coming, something in the air
Something in the air

Holding your hand when it gets cold
Promise me you'll never let go
It's winter break, but we'll never break apart
The season of celebrating
The memories we'll be making
Making a change, making a start
I'm gonna make my mark

There's something in the
There's something in the

There's something in the air (Air)
About to go off right now (Right now, aye)
Line up all around (Oh)
I feel it coming, something in the air (Air)
It's time to look forward to (Come on, come on)
Get ready for something new (New)
I feel it coming, something in the air (Aye)
Something in the air
There's something in the air (Yeah)
Something in the air (Aye, aye)
I feel it coming, something in the air

The Perfect Gift

(Joshua Bassett)

I still remember the first time we ever kissed
We didn't need no mistletoe to know what loving is
Through every up and down, there's one thing that stays true
Christmas is better every second it's with you

I don't got much to give
So I hope you think this is

The perfect gift that I could give
To the perfect gift that ever lived
Yeah, this song's the second best that I could do
When the perfect gift is you, you
When the perfect gift is you, you

I can't pretend that this has been the perfect year
You held my hand through every tear
You were a home for me when I had no one there
And I promise you that I'm not going anywhere

I don't got much to give
So I hope you think this is

The perfect gift that I could give
To the perfect gift that ever lived
Yeah, this song's the second best that I could do
When the perfect gift is you, you
When the perfect gift is you, you

When seasons change and I've lost my way
It'll be okay with you by my side
And darlin', that's why

This song's the second best that I could do
When the perfect gift is you, you
When the perfect gift is you, you
When the perfect gift is you, you
When the perfect gift is you

Bet On It

(Joshua Bassett)

Everybody's always talkin' at me
Everybody's tryin' to get in my head
I wanna listen to my own heart talkin'
I need to count on myself instead
(Did you ever) lose yourself to get what you want?
(Did you ever) get on a ride, then wanna get off?
(Did you ever) push away the ones you should've held close?
Did you ever let go? Did you ever not know?

I'm not gonna stop, that's who I am
I'll give it all I got, that is my plan
Will I find what I lost? You know you can
Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet on it (bet on me)
I wanna make it right, that is the way
To turn my life around, today is the day
Am I the type of guy who means what I say?
Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet on it

How will I know if there's a path worth takin'?
Should I question every move I make?
With all I've lost, my heart is breakin'
I don't wanna make the same mistakes
(Did you ever) doubt your dream will ever come true?
(Did you ever) blame the world, but never blame you?
(I will never) try to live a lie again
I don't wanna win this game if I can't play it my way

I'm not gonna stop, that's who I am (who I am)
I'll give it all I got, that is my plan (that's my plan)
Will I find what I lost? You know you can (you know you can)
Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet on it (bet on me)
I wanna make it right, that is the way
To turn my life around, today is the day
Am I the type of guy who means what I say?
Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet on it

Oh, hold up
Gimme room to think
Bring it on down
'Body's always talk, always talkin'
Gotta work on my swing
Gotta do my own thing
Oh, hold up
'Body's always talkin' at me

It's no good at all
To see yourself and not recognize your face
Out on my own, it's such a scary place, ooh
The answers are all inside of me
All I gotta do is believe

I'm not gonna stop
Not gonna stop 'til I get my shot
That's who I am, that is my plan
Will I end up on top? You can
Bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet on
You can bet on it, bet on it, bet on it, bet on it (bet on me)
I wanna make it right, that is the way
To turn my life around, today is the day
Am I the type of guy who means what I say?
Bet on it, bet on it
Bet on it, bet on it (you can bet on me)

High School Musical 2 Medley

(Cast)

[Fabulous]

[Joe Serafini:]
It's out with the old and in with the new
Goodbye clouds of grey, hello skies of blue
A dip in the pool, a trip to the spa
Endless days in my chaise
The whole world according to moi

[Joe Serafini & Frankie Rodriguez:]
I want fabulous, that is my simple request
All things fabulous, bigger and better and best
I need something inspiring to help me get along
I need a little fabulous, is that so wrong?

[Frankie Rodriguez:]
Take it, Ash

[You Are the Music in Me]

[Julia Lester:]
Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, yeah
You are the music in me

[Julia Lester & Sofia Wylie:]
You know the words "Once upon a time"
Make you listen, there's a reason
Come on, roomie
When you dream, there's a chance you'll find
A little laughter, or happy ever after

[Olivia Rodrigo & Joshua Bassett:]
You're harmony to the melody
Echoin' inside my head
A single voice (Single voice)
Above the noise
Like a common thread
Ooh, you're pullin' me

When I hear my favorite song
I know that we belong
Oh, you are the music in me
Yeah, it's livin' in all of us
It's brought us here because
You are the music in me

Na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na, yeah, yeah, yeah
You are the music in me

Everybody, all for one
Our real summer has just begun

Feel the rhythm of the drums

We're gonna have fun in the sun

[Frankie Rodriguez:]

[All:]
Everybody, one for all
And all for one
All for...

Belle

(Cast)

[CARLOS:]
Little town, it's a quiet village
Every day like the one before

[KOURTNEY:]
Little town, full of little people
Wakin' up to say

[E.J.:]
Bonjour!

[GINA:]
Bonjour!

[BIG RED:]
Bonjour!

[SEB:]
Bonjour!

[ASHLYN:]
Bonjour!

[RICKY:]
There goes the baker with his tray, like always
The same old bread and rolls to sell

[SEB:]
Every morning just the same
Since the morning that we came
To this poor provincial town

[E.J.:]
Good morning, Belle!

[ASHLYN:]
Bonjour, good day
How is your family?

[GINA:]
Bonjour, good day
How is your wife?

[STEPH:]
I need six eggs
That's too expensive!

[BIG RED:]
There must be more than this provincial life

[KOURTNEY:]
Look, there she goes, that girl is so peculiar
I wonder if she's feeling well

[KADEN:]
With a dreamy, far-off look
And her nose stuck in a book

[GINA:]
What a puzzle to the rest of us is Belle

[ASHLYN:]
Oh, isn't this amazing?
It's my favorite part because you'll see
Here's where she meets Prince Charming
But she won't discover that it's him 'til chapter three

[RICKY:]
Right from the moment when I met her, saw her
I said she's gorgeous and I fell

[E.J.:]
Here in town there's only she
Who is beautiful as me

[CARLOS:]
So I'm makin' plans to woo and marry Belle

[GINA:]
Madame Gaston
Can't you just see it?

[KOURTNEY:]
Madame Gaston
His little wife

[ASHLYN:]
No sir, not me
I guarantee it

[SEB:]
I want much more than this provincial life!

[LILY:]
I want adventure in the great wide somewhere
I wanted more than I can tell
And for once it might be grand
To have someone understand
I want so much more than they've got planned

[ENSEMBLE:]
Look, there she goes, that girl who's strange but special
A most peculiar mademoiselle

[GIRLS:]
It's a pity and a sin

[BOYS:]
She doesn't quite fit in

[ENSEMBLE:]
'Cause she really is a funny girl
A beauty, but a funny girl
She really is a funny girl
That Belle!

The Best Part

(Olivia Rodrigo)

I think of you in the window
Every night, I've been counting the days
I see your face almost every night
'Cause I just wanna be there when you wake
Sure, maybe, Salt Lake is not close
Denver always seems so far away
But I'm still breathing you in deep
But I hope you know that we're still close

Because
The best part is knowing there's something in my dreams that always make me smile, it's you
Even when you and I are worlds apart, I hold you in my heart
The best part is knowing there's someone in my life that makes it all worthwhile
Even when I'm a thousand miles away, I wish that I could stay with you
It's you

When I don't know what to do, no I'm
I shouldn't fear, 'cause I'm
Never givin' up, never givin' up on you, baby
I wish that you were here
There's no need to be blue

Because
The best part is knowing there's something in my dreams that always make me smile, it's you
Even when you and I are worlds apart, I hold you in my heart
The best part is knowing there's someone in my life that makes it all worthwhile
Even when I'm a thousand miles away, I wish that I could stay with you
It's you

You, you, with you
You, you, it's you, with you
I wish that I could stay with you
It's you

Beauty And The Beast

(Dara Reneé)

Tale as old as time (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
True as it can be (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Barely even friends
Then somebody bends
Unexpectedly (Ooh-ooh-ooh)

Just a little change (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Small to say the least
Both a little scared (Scared, ooh-ooh-ooh)
Neither one prepared
Beauty and the Beast

Ever just the same (Ooh-ooh, oh-oh-oh)
Ever a surprise (Surprise)
Ever as before (Before)
And ever just as sure (Sure)
As the sun will rise

Tale as old as time (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Tune as old as song (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh-oh-oh)
Bittersweet and strange
Finding you can change (Change)
Learning you were wrong (Ah-ah)

Certain as the sun (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, oh-oh)
Rising in the east
Tale as old as time (Time)
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the Beast (Beauty and the Beast)

Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the Beast

Red Means Love

(Julia Lester & Larry Saperstein)

I'm a Pisces, you're a Gemini
You're the brightest star in the East High sky
So I'll do anything I have to
Here's my choreography, do my moves impress you?
If only high school were a musical
With catchy words and melodies
I'll tell you that you're beautiful
So here goes nothin', why wait?
Five, six, seven, eight

Roll out the red carpet (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Like it's opening night
We'll paint the town red (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
With our name in lights
You caught me red-handed
'Cause I can't get enough
I'll put some color in your world, girl
Red means love

I can't believe you're mine, are they green with envy?
The school could riot, we could start a frenzy
Let's see, maybe I can sing on key
Like la-la-la, or do-re-mi and you
Oh, yeah, we go together
I'm your Fred
And I'm your Ginger
We can dance on clouds forever
You and me

Roll out the red carpet (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Like it's opening night
We'll paint the town red (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
With our name in lights
You caught me red-handed
'Cause I can't get enough
I'll put some color in your world, girl
Red means love

So cue the confetti (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
And the chorus line
I hope they're all ready (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
For this two of a kind
You caught me red-handed
Now I can't get enough
I'll put some color in your world
'Cause red means love

I'll put some color in your world
'Cause red means love
Let's put some color in the world
'Cause red means love

Granted

(Olivia Rodrigo)

How can something shake up every dream I hoped for?
Wakin' up to everything around me turned cold, mm
Don't wanna go back to second-guessin' my world
But all I left behind has got me feelin' so torn, mm

Am I takin' it for granted?
Everything that I've been granted
I keep lyin' awake with these dreams in the dead of the night
'Cause somethin' don't feel right
Will I take it all for granted?
And be leavin' empty-handed?
Oh, I feel shaken, everything's changin' within me

It feels so dramatic how erratic I think
Chasin' everything but leave the one that chased me, oh
So much movin' forward just to take a step back
When all I ever wanted I already had, mm

Am I takin' it for granted?
Everything that I've been granted
I keep lyin' awake with these dreams in the dead of the night
'Cause somethin' don't feel right
I won't take it all for granted
And be leavin' empty-handed
Oh, I feel shaken, everything's changin' within me

Will my heart lead me home? 'Cause I can't do this anymore
Tryna be somebody else
If I never left, I'd never know just how far I didn't have to go
To finally feel like myself

Am I takin' it for granted?
Everything that I've been granted
I keep lyin' awake with these dreams in the dead of the night
'Cause somethin' don't feel right
I won't take it all for granted
And be leavin' empty-handed
Oh, I feel shaken, everything's changin' within me

Am I takin' it for granted?

A Dancer's Heart

(Sofia Wylie)

Woah

It's time to turn it up
Let the music take over your body
And dance like everyone is watchin'
Your moves inspire me
To be the best I can be
Not alone, but in harmony, fearlessly

This rhythm's hot like the sun
Don't you dare disagree
If you think so, then come and join me

When you move, I move, we move
Together as one
It don't matter who you are
When we dance, we're all stars
Different in so many ways, but when we hit the stage
We all share the same thing
A dancer's heart

(Come on)
(Yeah, yeah)
(Oh, woah)

The truth's in every turn
One, two step, I have learned so much from you
And the way you groove
We got nothin' to lose

This rhythm's hot like the sun
Don't you dare disagree
If you think so, then come and join me

When you move, I move, we move
Together as one
It don't matter who you are
When we dance, we're all stars
Different in so many ways, but when we hit the stage
We all share the same thing
A dancer's heart

Turn the music up, let the rhythm move your body
No more to discuss, go and grab someone
Stranger or a friend, it don't matter in the end
Let this feelin' take over your life

When you move, I move, we move
Together as one (Together as one)
It don't matter who you are
When we dance, we're all stars
Different in so many ways, but when we hit the stage
We all share the same thing (We all share the same thing)
A dancer's heart
When you move, I move, we move
Together as one
It don't matter who you are
When we dance, we're all stars
Different in so many ways, but when we hit the stage
We all share the same thing
A dancer's heart

The Climb

(Joe Serafini)

I can almost see it
That dream I'm dreamin', but
There's a voice inside my head sayin'
"You'll never reach it"
Every step I'm takin'
Every move I make feels lost, with no direction
My faith is shaken

But I, I gotta keep tryin'
Gotta keep my head held high

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waitin' on the other side
It's the climb

The struggles I'm facin'
The chances I'm takin'
Sometimes might knock me down, but
No, I'm not breakin'
I may not know it
But these are the moments
That I'm gonna remember most, yeah
Just gotta keep goin'

And I, I gotta be strong
Just keep pushin' on, 'cause...

There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waitin' on the other side
It's the climb
Yeah, oh
There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes you're gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waitin' on the other side, yeah
It's the climb, oh

Yeah, it's all about the climb
Ooh-ooh-ooh, yeah
It's the climb

Home (Ashlyn Version)

(Julia Lester)

Yes, I made the choice
For Papa, I will stay
But I don't deserve to lose my freedom in this way
You monster!

If you think that what you've done is right
Well then, you're a fool
Think again

Is this home?
Is this where I should learn to be happy?
Never dreamed
That a home could be dark and cold
I was told
Every day in my childhood
Even when we grow old
"Home will be where the heart is"
Never were words so true
My heart's far, far away
Home is too

Is this home?
Is this what I must learn to believe in?
Try to find something good
In this tragic place
Just in case
I should stay here forever
Held in this empty space
Oh, but that won't be easy
I know the reason why
My heart's far, far away
Home's a lie

What I'd give
To return
To the life that I knew lately
But I know
That I can't
Solve my problems going back

Is this home?
Am I here for a day or forever?
Shut away
From the world until who knows when
Oh, but then
As my life has been altered once
It can change again
Build higher walls around me
Change every lock and key
Nothing lasts
Nothing holds all of me

My heart's far, far away
Home and free

The Rose Song

(Olivia Rodrigo)

All my life, I've seen myself through your eyes
Wonderin' if I am good enough for your time
You love me but for all the wrong reasons
Am I somethin' to you and not someone?
'Cause I feel trapped on this pedestal you put me on
You tell me that I'm beautiful but I think that's an understatement

'Cause I am more than what I am to you
You say I'm perfect but I've got thorns with my petals, too
And I won't be confined to your point of view
I'm breakin' through the glass you put me in
'Cause my beauty's from within, oh
My beauty's from within, oh

So, I am done livin' my life just for you
You watched me wither and now you watch me bloom
You're hidin' in the dark but I'm reachin' for the sun, woo

'Cause I am more than what I am to you
You say I'm pretty but I've got magic that you never knew
And I won't be confined to your point of view
I'm breakin' through the glass you put me in

'Cause I am more than what I am to you
You say I'm perfect but I've got thorns with my petals, too
And I won't be confined to your point of view
I'm breakin' through the glass you put me in
'Cause my beauty's from within

---

Around You

(Kate Reinders & Derek Hough)

Yeah

Think I won't keep up, got a lot to prove
But you ain't ever seen everything I can do, let me show ya
Oh, no, I'd never say that
Right now you'll bring me back
And it's never ever been me versus you, no

Always settin' fires whenever we're put together
We can't even be in the same room
Can't even pretend that I can get you out my head, 'cause
I'm overthinkin' 'bout you

Why do I always get like this whenever I'm around you?
Around you (Around, around, around you)
And how do you get under my skin when I don't wanna let you in?
Let's face it that maybe we like this as much as we hate it
And I can't take it
Why does it always come to this whenever I'm around you?
Whenever I'm around you

Mm-hmm-mm, goin' head-to-head
Gonna watch my back (Better watch your back)
'Cause I've seen it all before, lookin' at our past
Ooh, you're so dramatic
I'm not
Just stop, gonna lose my head (My head)
It's like you're tryna push me right to the edge

Always on the wire whenever we get together (Together)
We can't even be in the same room (Same room)
Can't even pretend our situation will get better
I'm overthinkin' 'bout you

Why do I always get like this whenever I'm around you?
Around you
And how do you get under my skin when I don't wanna let you in?
(Don't wanna let me in)
Let's face it that maybe we like this as much as we hate it
And I can't take it (Oh, no, no)
Why does it always come to this whenever I'm around you?
Whenever I'm around you

Ah-ah-ah (Around), ah-ah-ah (Around)
Ah-ah-ah (You)
Around you
Does the struggle ever end?
Do enemies become friends?

Why do I always get like this whenever I'm around you?
Around you
And how do you get under my skin when I don't wanna let you in?
(How does this feel like this?)
Let's face it that maybe we like this as much as we hate it
And I can't take it (I can't take it)
Why does it always come to this whenever I'm around you?
(Whenever I'm around you) Whenever I'm around you

Around you
Whenever I'm around you (Whenever I'm around you)
Whenever I'm around you (No, I can't be around you)
I can't be around you (But I wanna be around you)
I wanna be
Around you

The Mob Song

(Cast)

[Ricky:]
Through the mist, through the woods
Through the darkness and the shadows
It's a nightmare, but it's one exciting ride

[Howie:]
Say a prayer, then we're there
At the drawbridge of a castle
And there's something truly terrible inside

[Ricky:]
It's a beast

[Howie:]
He's got fangs

[Ricky:]
Razor-sharp ones

[Howie:]
Massive paws, killer claws for the feast

[Ricky:]
Hear him roar, see him foam

[Howie:]
But we're not coming home 'til he's dead
Good and dead

[Ensemble:]
Kill the beast
Kill the beast

[East High Students:]
Light your torch, mount your horse
Screw your courage to the sticking place
We're counting on Gaston to lead the way
Through a mist, through a wood
Where within a haunted castle
Something's lurking that you don't see every day

[North High Students:]
It's a beast
One as tall as a mountain
We won't rest 'til he's good and deceased
Sally forth, tally ho
Grab your sword, grab your bow
Praise the lord and here we go

[Antoine:]
We're not safe until he's dead
He'll come stalking us at night

[Carlos:]
Set to sacrifice our children
To his monstrous appetite

[Antoine:]
He'll wreak havoc on our village if we let him wander free

[Carlos:]
So it's time to take some action, boys
It's time to follow me

[Ensemble:]
We don't like
What we don't understand
In fact, it scares us
And this monster is mysterious at least
Bring your guns, bring your knives
Save your children and your wives
We'll save our village and our lives
We'll kill the beast
Kill the beast

[Lily:]
Hearts ablaze, banners high
We go marching into battle
Unafraid although the danger just increased

[Ashlyn:]
Raise the flag, sing the song
Here we come, we're fifty strong
And fifty Frenchmen can't be wrong

[Ensemble:]
We'll kill the beast

Gaston

(Cast)

[Big Red:]
Gosh, it disturbs me to see you, Gaston
Looking so down in the dumps
Every guy here'd love to be you, Gaston
Even when taking your lumps
There's no man in town as admired as you
You're everyone's favorite guy
Everyone's awed and inspired by you
And it's not very hard to see why

No one's slick as Gaston
No one's quick as Gaston
No one's neck's as incredibly thick as Gaston
For there's no man in town half as manly
Perfect, a pure paragon
You can ask any Tom, Dick, or Stanley
And they'll tell you whose team they prefer to be on

[Ensemble:]
No one's been like Gaston
A kingpin like Gaston

[Big Red:]
No one's got a swell cleft in his chin like Gaston

[E.J.:]
As a specimen, yes, I'm intimidating

[Ensemble:]
My, what a guy, that Gaston

[E.J.:]
When I was a lad, I ate four dozen eggs
Every morning to help me get large
And now that I'm grown, I eat five dozen eggs
So I'm roughly the size of a barge

[Ensemble:]
No one shoots like Gaston
Makes those beauts like Gaston

[Big Red:]
Then goes tromping around wearing boots like Gaston

[E.J.:]
I use antlers in all of my decorating

[Ensemble:]
Say it again
Gaston

If I Can't Love Her

(Roman Banks)

And in my twisted face
There's not the slightest trace
Of anything that even hints at kindness
And from my tortured shape
No comfort, no escape
I see, but deep within is utter blindness

Hopeless
As my dream dies
As the time flies
Love, a lost illusion
Helpless
Unforgiven
Cold and driven
To this sad conclusion

No beauty could move me
No goodness improve me
No power on earth
If I can't love her
No passion could reach me
No lesson could teach me
How I could have loved her
And make her love me, too
If I can't love her, then who?

Long ago I should have seen
All the things I could have been
Careless and unthinking, I moved onward

No pain could be deeper
No life could be cheaper
No point anymore
If I can't love her
No spirit could win me
No hope left within me
Hope I could have loved her
And that she'd set me free
But it's not to be
If I can't love her
Let the world be done with me
If I can't love her
If I can't love her
If I can't love her

You Ain't Seen Nothin

(Cast)

Some days you've gotta take some time to breathe
Let your heart off the leash
'Cause it ain't meant to shine in one place
Remind yourself at times that time can wait
Just 'cause you take a break
Don't mean the lights are out on Broadway

We build monuments in our sleep
Climb mountains too high to reach
There's so much more than they see on the daily
Strength in numbers, second to none
Come up like we're number one
Recharged and ready to run, run, run

Roarin' louder than thunder
But you'll never see it comin', see it comin'
As long as we've got each other
Watch out, 'cause you ain't seen nothin', ain't seen nothin'

No stress, ain't overdressed, we keep our cool
Playin' by our own rules, no divide, that's how we conquer
Time out don't mean we're 'bout to step aside
Just maintenance for the ride
That's gettin' better, faster, stronger

Ain't no rainin' on this parade
'Cause we're a force that's self-made
Do what we do, and we do it our way

Roarin' louder than thunder
But you'll never see it comin', see it comin'
As long as we've got each other
Watch out, 'cause you ain't seen nothin', ain't seen nothin'

Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
You ain't seen nothin', ain't seen nothin'

When they go low (They go low), we go high (We go high), we go high
When they go low, we go high
When they go low, we go high
When they go low (They go low), we go high, we go high
We go high, we go high, we go high

Roarin' louder than thunder
But you'll never see it comin', but you'll never see it comin'
As long as we've got each other
Watch out, 'cause you ain't seen nothin', you ain't seen nothin'

Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
You ain't seen nothin' (No), ain't seen nothin' yet
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah
You ain't seen nothin', ain't seen nothin' yet

Let You Go

(Joshua Bassett)

Close the book before it turns to tragedy
Tear the tree house down, give up the fantasy
Nothin' to regret, since the day we met
Glad we took a chance makin' our own world
Perfectly imperfect like it had to be

Who thought that one first kiss
Would turn into two heartbreaks?
'Cause, since we were young, I swore
I'd never walk away

I love you so much that I've gotta let you go
It couldn't last forever
And I hope you find better
I can't forget us, can't pretend we ain't broken
It was good together
Now I've gotta let you go

I'll always be in love with who you used to be
I'll save the photographs and keep the memories
The ribbon in your hair, the secrets that we shared
The way that you would stare at me across the room
We laughed until we cried, it feels like yesterday

Who thought that one first kiss
Would turn into two heartbreaks?
'Cause, since we were young, I swore
That I'd never walk away

I love you so much that I've gotta let you go
It couldn't last forever
And I hope you find better
I can't forget us, can't pretend we ain't broken
It was good together
Now I've gotta let you go

I'm pickin' up pieces left and right
Now that our hearts are both untied
It'll take time, it'll take time
No one can say we didn't try
I'll think of these days all my life
It'll take time, it'll take time

I love you so much that I've gotta let you go
It couldn't last forever
And I hope you find better, yeah
I can't forget us, can't pretend we ain't broken
It was good together
Now I've gotta let you go

In A Heartbeat

(Frankie Rodriguez)

[Frankie Rodriguez:]
Mmm-mmm, mmm-mmm-mmm
(Ooh-ooh)

[Frankie Rodriguez (Joshua Bassett):]
I scream at the top of my lungs, you keep it all bottled up
We're different that way (Different that way)
But please don't ever change (Don't ever change)
It might feel like it's only us
Lookin' for our kind of love, and maybe that's true
But I'm so glad that it's you

[Frankie Rodriguez:]
I wish you knew that you're fantastic
I'll be right here, whatever happens

When all's said and done
You'll always be the one that I keep comin' back to
In a heartbeat, I'd choose you
Hope you know you'll never dance alone
So, don't you worry, don't need to
In a heartbeat, I'd choose you

[Frankie Rodriguez & Joshua Bassett:]
You make me feel like myself
Why would I go anywhere else?
How crazy I am (Crazy I am)
Somehow, you understand (You understand), yeah
You're the sweetest guy I've ever met (I've ever met)
I'm as lucky as lucky can get, too good to be true
Knowin' somebody like you

I wish you knew that you're fantastic
But I don't have to tell you, this is magic

When all's said and done
You'll always be the one that I keep comin' back to
In a heartbeat, I'd choose you
Hope you know (I hope you know), you'll never dance alone
So, don't you worry, don't need to
In a heartbeat, I'd choose you

(Oh-oh-oh-oh) In a heartbeat, in a heartbeat, I'd choose you
(Oh-oh-oh-oh) Don't you worry, you can trust me, I won't lose you
The future, we can't control
But all I know is everything that I need
I have with the boy who chose me

When all's said and done
You'll always be the one that I keep comin' back to
In a heartbeat, I'd choose you
Hope you know (I hope you know), you'll never dance alone
So, don't you worry, don't need to
In a heartbeat, I'd choose you

You (In a heartbeat), you (In a heartbeat)
I'd choose you (In a heartbeat)
In a heartbeat
Ooh (In a heartbeat)
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (In a heartbeat)
I'd choose you (In a heartbeat)
In a heartbeat

Be Our Guest

(Cast)

Be our guest
Be our guest
Put our service to the test
Tie your napkin 'round your neck, cherie
And we provide the rest
Soup du jour
Hot hors d'oeuvres
Why, we only live to serve
Try the grey stuff, it's delicious
Don't believe me? Ask the dishes
They can sing
They can dance
After all, Miss, this is France
And a dinner here is never second best
Go on, unfold your menu
Take a glance and then you'll
Be our guest
Oui, our guest
Be our guest
Beef ragout
Cheese souffle
Pie and pudding "en flambe"
We'll prepare and serve with flair
A culinary cabaret
You're alone
And you're scared
But the banquet's all prepared
No one's gloomy or complaining
While the flatware's entertaining
We tell jokes
I do tricks
With my fellow candlesticks
And it's all in perfect taste that you can bet
Come on and lift your glass
You've won your own free pass
To be out guest
If you're stressed
It's fine dining we suggest
Be our guest
Be our guest
Be our guest
Life is so unnerving
For a servant who's not serving
He's not whole without a soul to wait upon
Ah, those good old days when we were useful
Suddenly those good old days are gone
Ten years we've been rusting
Needing so much more than dusting
Needing exercise, a chance to use our skills
Most days we just lay around the castle
Flabby, fat and lazy
You walked in and oops-a-daisy!
It's a guest
It's a guest
Sakes alive, well I'll be blessed
Wine's been poured and thank the Lord
I've had the napkins freshly pressed
With dessert
She'll want tea
And my dear that's fine with me
While the cups do their soft shoeing
I'll be bubbling, I'll be brewing
I'll get warm
Piping hot
Heaven's sakes! Is that a spot?
Clean it up! We want the company impressed
We've got a lot to do
Is it one lump or two
For you, our guest
She's our guest
She's our guest
She's our guest
Be our guest
Be our guest
Our command is your request
It's ten years since we had anybody here
And we're obsessed
With your meal
With your ease
Yes, indeed, we aim to please
While the candlelight's still glowing
Let us help you
We'll keep going
Course by course
One by one
'Til you shout,enough, I'm done
Then we'll sing you off to sleep as you digest
Tonight you'll prop your feet up
But for now, let's eat up
Be our guest
Be our guest
Be our guest
Please, be our guest

Something There

(Cast)

[Ashlyn:]
There's something sweet, and almost kind
But he was mean and he was coarse and unrefined
And now he's dear, and so unsure
I wonder why I didn't see him there before

[Ricky:]
She glanced this way, I thought I saw
And when we touched, she didn't shudder at my paw
No, it can't be, I'll just ignore
But then, she's never looked at me that way before

[Ashlyn:]
New, and a bit alarming
Who'd have ever thought that this could be?
True, that he's no prince charming
But there's something in him that I simply didn't see

[Carlos:]
Well, who'd have thought?

[Kourtney:]
Well, bless my soul

[Kaison:]
Well, who'd have known?

[Kourtney:]
Well, who indeed?

[Carlos:]
And who'd have guessed they'd come together on their own?

[Kourtney:]
It's so peculiar

[Carlos, Kourtney & Kaison:]
Wait and see, a few days more
There may be something there that wasn't there before

[Kaison:]
Perhaps there's something there that wasn't there before

[Kourtney:]
There may be something there that wasn't there before

Second Chance

(Cast)

Who knew that love could be so bittersweet
Oh, when it finally meets the end?
But there is somethin' in this summer wind
A moment to begin again
I know that every time a door is shut
A window opens up for me
It's all wide open down this road I'm on
I'm findin' who I want to be

I've got a second chance to fly
I've got a second chance to fall
What can make the tide turn?
What can make the fire burn?
A second chance is all

Was I a fool to read between the lines?
Did I misread the signs that much?
Who would've thought we'd come this far as friends?
Maybe that should've been enough
Maybe I'm safer when I'm on the run
No time to open up my heart
Maybe I'll hide behind my walls again
Instead of tearing them apart

I've got a second chance to fly (Another chance to fly)
I've got a second chance to fall (Another chance to fall)
What can make the tide turn?
What can make the fire burn?
A second chance is all

(I'm finding who I wanna be)
(Begin again, begin again, begin again)
I thought I knew what I want
I'm safer when I'm on the run
(I'm finding who I wanna be)
(Begin again, begin again, begin again)
I thought I knew what I want
I'm safer when I'm on the run

I've got a second chance to fly
I've got a second chance to fall
What can make the tide turn?
What can make the fire burn?

A second chance is all
I've got a second chance to fly

(It was just another chance to fall)
I've got a second chance to fall

I wonder what can make the tide turn?
(What does it take?)
What can make the fire burn?

A second chance is all

(I'm finding who I wanna be)
(Begin again, begin again, begin again)
I thought I knew what I want
I'm safer when I'm on the run
(I'm finding who I wanna be)
Begin again, begin again

A second chance is all

Home (Lily Version)

(Olivia Rose Keegan)

Yes, I made the choice
For Papa, I will stay
But I don't deserve to lose my freedom in this way
You monster!

If you think that what you've done is right
Well then, you're a fool
Think again

Is this home?
Is this where I should learn to be happy?
Never dreamed
That a home could be dark and cold
I was told
Every day in my childhood
Even when we grow old
"Home will be where the heart is"
Never were words so true
My heart's far, far away
Home is too

Is this home?
Is this what I must learn to believe in?
Try to find something good
In this tragic place
Just in case
I should stay here forever
Held in this empty space
Oh, but that won't be easy
I know the reason why
My heart's far, far away
Home's a lie

What I'd give
To return
To the life that I knew lately
But I know
That I can't
Solve my problems going back

Is this home?
Am I here for a day or forever?
Shut away
From the world until who knows when
Oh, but then
As my life has been altered once
It can change again
Build higher walls around me
Change every lock and key
Nothing lasts
Nothing holds all of me

My heart's far, far away
Home and free
