someday you'll find us on broadway

After reading more of my archives, I'm really really amused about how damned superficial I used to be, not to mention how naive. But the funniest thing I've come across so far has to be the lyrics to the never-completed opera, "Little Orphan Lisha" *coughs* you know who you are */coughs*.
It's A Hard Knock Life (parody of Annie; to the tune of "It's A Hard Knock Life"):
Chorus:
It's a hard knock life for us
It's a hard knock life for us
Instead of sleeping, we do math
Instead of dreaming, there's teacher wrath!
It's a hard knock life!
(That's all that's been recorded graphically.)
Tomorrow (pardoy of Annie; to the tune of "Tomorrow;" written by Lisha on a particularly hot day):
The sun will come out tomorrow
Bet your knickerbottoms there'll be sorrow
We'll all die
The sun'll come out tomorrow
Scorch our faces off and noses
Tomorrow
We'll all fry!
Tomorrow, tomorrow
I hate you, tomorrow
Why can't you be far away?
Freak Society (pardoy of "Yellow Submarine")
(lyrics by Lisha, Sophie, and me doing the last two lines)
Chorus:
We all live in a freak society
A freak society
An idiocracy
We all live in a freak society
A big bureaucracy
With much monopoly!
Chorus:
It's a hard knock life for us
It's a hard knock life for us
Instead of sleeping, we do math
Instead of dreaming, there's teacher wrath!
It's a hard knock life!
(That's all that's been recorded graphically.)
The sun will come out tomorrow
Bet your knickerbottoms there'll be sorrow
We'll all die
The sun'll come out tomorrow
Scorch our faces off and noses
Tomorrow
We'll all fry!
Tomorrow, tomorrow
I hate you, tomorrow
Why can't you be far away?
(lyrics by Lisha, Sophie, and me doing the last two lines)
Chorus:
We all live in a freak society
A freak society
An idiocracy
We all live in a freak society
A big bureaucracy
With much monopoly!
