An ALW ParodySo I wrote this about a year ago, but I just realized today that I could post it. Hahahaa. One of my drama teachers (let's just all him Tommy Q) really hates ALW, so for his birthday, my friend and I wrote a little parody of several shows. Neither of us are lyricists (at all), but it was pretty fun to write.
Some of the lyrics are random references to plays we've done, but a lot of them are just fun drama references. If you can imagine this being performed by two girls in the tech shop, it will help.
Random tidbits that might help you understand this: He's obsessed with diet coke, RLind is the nickname of Girl 1 who makes a lot of dance mixes for our drama classes), in the Odyssey Girl 2 (aka me) had to stand on a little platform fifteen feet above the ground for the entire show, Tommy Q has never posted a cast list on time ever
Tommy Q Superstar
Girl 1 (playing Tommy Q) [To the tune of "Memory"]
May first. See my birthday on the calendar.
See a cake on the counter. How the years fade away.
Like the power drill, I yearn to turn my face to the sun.
I am waiting for my birthday.
Girl 2 [to the tune of "Jellicle Cats"]
Are you now forty-one? Born in one-nine-six-six?
Can you just forty-one cokes? Or dance to RLind's dance mix?
Because Tommy Qs are and Tommy Qs do
Tommy Qs do and Tommy Qs would
Tommy Qs would and Tommy Qs can
Tommy Qs can and Tommy Qs do.
Girl 2 [to the tune of "Think of Me"]
Please cast me.
Give me a good part, when I audition next year.
Remember me that one year in Odyssey, when I conquered my fear
[of heights]
And when you find that once again you long to post the cast list up (ON TIME)
If you ever find a moment, spare a part for me.
Both [to the tune of Go, Go, Go Joseph]:
Go, go, go Tommy, you know what they say.
Go, go, go Tommy, you'll make it some day.
Shalala Tommy, you're doing fine.
You and your productions ahead of the time.
Both [to the tune of Jesus Christ Superstar]
Tommy Q, superstar,
Do you know you're what they say you are?
Tommy Q, superstar
We hope we've made your birthday go well so far!
Well that's about it. Hahaha. We had a fun time writing and performing it. Now the only problem is that we have to figure out how to top it for this year!
