Don’t Stop Me

0

DJ:
WE’VE LOCKED THE DOORS
HENCHMEN:
WE’VE LOCKED THE DOORS
DJ:
PUT THE FIREWALLS UP
HENCHMEN:
PUT THE FIREWALLS UP
DJ:
NO ONE LEAVIN’ ANYTIME SOON
HENCHMEN:
WE’VE LOCKED THE DOORS
DJ:
I’VE SHARPENED MY BLADES
HENCHMEN:
WE’VE SHARPENED OUR BLADES
DJ:
SO GET READY FOR A CUT
HENCHMEN:
GET READY FOR A CUT
DJ:
TONIGHT’S THE NIGHT
WE’RE GONNA PLAY YOUR FAVORITE TUNE
TYE:
What is he talking about?
DJ:
I AM THE DJ
WHEN I SAY DANCE YOU DANCE
YOU READ THE TERMS
HENCHMEN:
YOU READ THE TERMS
DJ:
YOU READ THE CONDITIONS
HENCHMEN:
YOU READ THE CONDITIONS
DJ:
I AM THE DJ
YOU NEVER HAD A CHANCE
I RIGGED THE GAME
MY STACKS OF WAX
NO MATTER YOUR CHOICE
IT’S ALL THE SAME
YOU’RE GONNA FUCK IT ALL UP
YOU’RE GONNA FUCK IT ALL UP
(Several extras race toward the DJ. The DJ magically blasts them all.)
DJ:
HUZZAH HUZZAH TO THESE FRESH TEEN MINDS
HENCHMEN:
HUZZAH HUZZAH TO THESE FRESH TEEN MINDS
DJ:
SPUNKY ORIGINAL
SEXY DERANGED LITTLE MINDS
WITH YOUR OPINIONS, PREFERENCES
AND YOUR JUDGEMENTS
WELL DON’T YOU THINK IT’S TIME
THAT WE PUT YOU TO THE TEST
CLAMP THE VISE ALONG YOUR SPINE
STACK THE BRICKS UPON YOUR CHEST
BECAUSE EVERY LITTLE THING YOU’VE DONE
HAS MADE YOU WHO YOU ARE
AND NOW THERE’S NOWHERE LEFT TO RUN
THIS IS IT
THAT’S WHAT YOU GET
YOU TRIED SO HARD TO BE A STAR
WE MADE YOU CARE
BUT IN THE END YOU’LL NEVER PLEASE US
AND THE WORLD IS TICKING DOWN IN SELF-DESTRUCT MODE ANYWAY
JAYNIE:
Why didn’t they tell us about this in Topeka!
MO:
Ohhh, this must be what they meant by no survivors—
JAYNIE:
What?
MO:
It came up during the correspondence. “No Survivors Dance-a-thon.” I thought it was just sensationalist PR
DJ:
I AM THE DJ
WHEN I SAY DANCE YOU DANCE
YOU READ THE TERMS
ALL:
We READ THE TERMS
DJ:
YOU READ THE CONDITIONS
ALL:
WE READ THE CONDITIONS
DJ:
I AM THE DJ
YOU NEVER HAD A CHANCE
I RIGGED THE GAME
MY STACKS OF WAX
NO MATTER YOUR CHOICE
IT’S ALL THE SAME
YOU’RE GONNA FUCK IT ALL UP
ALL:
GONNA FUCK IT ALL UP
DJ:
YOU’RE GONNA FUCK IT ALL UP
ALL:
GONNA FUCK IT ALL UP
GRACE:
Why isn’t anyone helping us? They can still see us, right?
Who’s coming to save us?
JANELLE:
As soon as the adults find out - it’s only a matter of time before they fix this
HENCHMEN:
THIS IS YOUR DYSTOPIAN PARABLE
WHERE EVERYTHING IS DARK AND TERRIBLE
DJ:
I’M AFRAID THEY’RE ALL WATCHING
GO ON AND WAVE HELLO
YOUR PARENTS AND YOUR TEACHERS
EVERYONE YOU’VE EVER KNOWN
THEY ALL LOVE TO SEE YOU SUFFER
THEY ALL LOVE TO SEE YOU SQUIRM
YOU’VE ALWAYS KNOWN
YOU’VE ALWAYS KNOWN
GRACE:
They’re watching? How can they all be watching and not doing anything?
DJ:
THERE’S NO ESCAPE
YOU ARE DONE
IT’S TOO LATE
YOU WILL NEVER BEAT YOUR DEMONS
YOU ARE YOU
IT’S TOO LATE
DJ and HENCHMEN:
THERE’S NO ESCAPE
YOU ARE DONE
IT’S TOO LATE
YOU WILL NEVER BEAT YOUR DEMONS
YOU ARE YOU
IT’S TOO LATE
(x2)
(DJ hits the BUZZER)
