CONSTANCE: Our first song is by Father Louis P. Marcus, our choir conductor. He was inspired by traditional African folk music—specifically The Lion King. It’s about our hometown, Uranium. Enjoy OCEAN: URANIUM! CHOIR: URANIUM THAT'S OUR TOWN OUR FRIENDLY TOWN OCEAN: URANIUM CHOIR (Underneath next line): URANIUM THAT'S OUR TOWN OUR HIGHWAY TOWN (OOH) NOEL: THE SKY IS ALMOST BLUE HERE GRAIN ELEVATORS TOO, HERE CHOIR (Underneath next line): THE PRIDE AND JOY OF SWEET SASKATCHEWAN (OOH) CONSTANCE: WE CAME HERE FOR THE HALF-LIFE AND STAYED HERE FOR OUR WHOLE LIFE CHOIR: TO GIVE THE WHOLE WIDE WORLD PLUTONIUM! OCEAN: URANIUM CHOIR: URANIUM THAT'S OUR TOWN OUR FRIENDLY TOWN OH NO NO WE WILL NEVER LEAVE THIS TOWN AT ALL! CHOIR (tracked): LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA… KARNAK: In my part of the story, I read all of the children's fortunes- I felt their hopes, thoughts, dreams, knowing they would board the doomed rollercoaster... And could tell them nothing. I even suggested that they ride The Cyclone CHOIR: AAH... KARNAK: On Monday, September 14th, thеy would board The Cyclone rollercoastеr at 6:17 PM At 6:19, the same rollercoaster's front axle would break, causing it to derail at the apex of the loop-de-loop, hurtling the children to their deaths! CHOIR: AAH! AND THEN YOU'RE SAILING THROUGH SPACE YOU DON'T KNOW UP FROM DOWN AND YOU FEEL A LITTLE STRANGE FROM ALL THAT SPINNING 'ROUND AND EVERYTHING YOU LOVED AND EVERYTHING YOU DREAMED AND EVERYTHING YOU FEARED AND EVERYTHING THAT SEEMS SO OH, SO TERRIFYING IT'S FAR BEHIND ON THE GROUND LIKE OUR FAR-FROM-THE-CITY-LITTLE-ITTY-BITTY-PRETTY HOMETOWN JUST A TEENY, TINY DOT ON A WEE BLUE BALL AND WE'VE ALL BEEN SPINNING NOEL, MISCHA & RICKY: ALL BEEN SPINNING CHOIR: ROUND AND ROUND AND ROUND AND ROUND AND ROUND ROUND AND ROUND AND ROUND AND ROUND AND ROUND AND ROUND AND ROUND NOEL, MISCHA & RICKY: URANIUM...
