Song 1
I’m comin’ up so you better get this party started
I’m comin’ up so you better get this party started
Get this party started on a Saturday night
Everybody’s waitin’ for me to arrive
Sendin’ out the message to all of my friends
We’ll be lookin’ flashy in my Mercedes Benz
I got lotsa style, check my gold diamond rings
I can go for miles if you know what I mean
I’m comin’ up so you better get this party started
I’m comin’ up so you better get this party started
………….
Pumpin’ up the volume, breakin down’ to the beat
Cruisin’ through the west side, we’ll be checkin’ the scene
Boulevard is freakin’ as I’m comin’ up fast
I’ll be burnin’ rubber, you’ll be kissin’ my ass
Pull up to the bumper, get out
of the car
License plate says “Stunner number one Superstar”
I’m comin’ up so you better get this party started (x2)
Song 2
Her name is Noelle. I have a dream about her
She rings my bell. I got gym class in half an hour
Oh how she rocks
In keds and tube socks
But she doesn’t know who I am
And she doesn’t give a damn about me
‘Cause I’m just a teenage dirtbag baby
Yeah I’m just a teenage dirtbag baby
Listen to Iron Maiden baby with me
………………………………
Her boyfriend’s a dick. He brings a gun to school
And he’d simply kick…my ass if he knew the truth
He lives on my block
And he drives an Iroc
But he doesn’t know who I am
And he doesn’t give a damn about me
‘Cause I’m just a teenage dirtbag baby
Yeah I’m just a teenage dirtbag baby
Listen to Iron Maiden baby with me
Song 3
La-la-la, la-la-la-la-la (x4)
I just can’t get you out of my head
Boy, your loving is all I think about
I just can’t get you out of my head
Boy, it’s more than I dare to think about
Every night, every day
Just to be there in your arms
Won’t you stay? Won’t you lay?
Stay forever and ever and ever and ever
La-la-la, la-la-la-la-la…
………………………………..
There’s a dark secret in me
Don’t leave me locked in your heart
Set me free
Feel the need in me
Set me free
Stay forever and ever and ever and ever
La-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
Song 4
You, you’re such a big star to me
You’re everything I wanna be
But you’re stuck in a hole
And I want you to get out
I don’t know what there is to see
But I know it’s time for you to leave
We’re all just pushing along
Trying to figure it out, out, out
All your anticipation pulls you down
When you can have it all
You can have it all
So come on
So come on, get it on
I don’t know what you’re waiting for
Your time is coming, don’t be late, hey, hey
So come on
See the light on your face
Let it shine, just let it shine
Let it shine
………………………………….
(Hey) Hey (Let me know ya) let me know ya
(You’re all that matters to me) you’re all that matters to me
(Hey) let me show ya (let me show ya)
(You’re all that matters to me) you’re all that matters to me
So come on
Oh, come on, get it on
I don’t know what you’re waiting for
Your time is coming, don’t be late, hey, hey
So come on
See the light on your face
Let it shine, just let it shine
Let it shine
Song 5
I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy’s eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
“Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!”
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Catholic choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can’t explain
Once you go there was never
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world
….
I hear Jerusalem bells a ringing
Roman Catholic choirs are singing
Be my mirror, my sword and shield
My missionaries in a foreign field
For some reason I can’t explain
I know Saint Peter won’t call my name
Never an honest word
And that was when I ruled the world
Song 6
When the world leaves you feeling blue
You can count on me. I will be there for you
When it seems all your hopes and dreams
Are a million miles away. I will reassure you
We’ve got to all stick together
Good friends are there for each other
Never ever forget
That I’ve got you and you’ve got me
So, reach for the stars
Climb every mountain higher
Reach for the stars
Follow your heart’s desire
Reach for the stars
And when that rainbow’s shining over you
That’s when your dreams will all come true
………………
Don’t stop. Gotta keep moving
Your hopes have gotta keep building
Never ever forget
That I’ve got you and you’ve got me
So, reach for the stars
Climb every mountain higher
Reach for the stars
Follow your heart’s desire
Reach for the stars
And when that rainbow’s shining over you
That’s when your dreams will all come true
Song 7
Riding through the city on my bike all day
‘Cause the filth took away my license
It doesn’t get me down and I feel okay
‘Cause the sights that I’m seeing are priceless
Everything seems to look as it should
But I wonder what goes on behind doors
A fella looking dapper, and he’s sitting with a slapper
Then I see it’s a pimp and his crack whore
You might laugh, you might frown
Walking ’round London town
Sun is in the sky, oh why, oh why
Would I wanna be anywhere else?
Sun is in the sky, oh why, oh why
Would I wanna be anywhere else?
When you look with your eyes
Everything seems nice
But if you look twice
You can see it’s all lies
Song 8
They tried to make me go to rehab, I said ‘no, no, no’
Yes I’ve been black but when I come back you’ll know know know
I ain’t got the time and if my daddy thinks I’m fine
He’s tried to make me go to rehab, I won’t go go go
I’d rather be at home with Ray
I ain’t got seventy days
Coz there’s nothing, there’s nothing you can teach me
That I can’t learn from Mr Hathaway
Didn’t get a lot at class
But I know it don’t come in a shot glass
They tried to make me go to rehab, I said ‘no, no, no’
Yes I’ve been black but when I come back you’ll know know know
I ain’t got the time and if my daddy thinks I’m fine
He’s tried to make me go to rehab but I won’t go go go
Song 9
Remember those walls I built
Well, baby, they’re tumbling down
And they didn’t even put up a fight
They didn’t even make a sound
I found a way to let you win
But I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now
It’s like I’ve been awakened
Every rule I had you break it
It’s the risk that I’m taking
I ain’t never gonna shut you out
Everywhere I’m looking now
I’m surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you’re my saving grace
You’re everything I need and more
It’s written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
Pray it won’t fade away
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
Song 10
Hey hey baby I wanna know
If you’ll be my girl
(repeat)
When I saw you walking down the street
I said “That’s the kind of girl I’d like to meet”
She’s so pretty looks just fine
I’m gonna make her mine all mine
Hey hey baby I wanna know
If you’ll be my girl
(repeat)
……………………………………
When you turn and walk away. That’s when I want to say
Come on baby give me a whirl. I wanna know if you’ll be my girl
Hey hey baby I wanna know
If you’ll be my girl
(repeat)
HALFTIME
Song 11
Stop making the eyes at me, I’ll stop making the eyes at you
What it is that surprises me is that I don’t really want you to
And your shoulders are frozen (cold as the night)
Oh, but you’re an explosion (you’re dynamite)
Your name isn’t Rio, but I don’t care for sand
And lighting the fuse might result in a bang, b-b-bang-oh
I bet that you look good on the dance floor
I don’t know if you’re looking for romance or
I don’t know what you’re looking for
I said, I bet that you look good on the dance floor
Dancing to electro-pop like a robot from 1984
Well, from 1984
Song 12
Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards, one blow from caving in?
Do you ever feel already buried deep?
Six feet under screams, but no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there’s still a chance for you
‘Cause there’s a spark in you
You just gotta ignite the light, and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July
‘Cause, baby, you’re a firework
Come on, show ’em what you’re worth
Make ’em go, “Oh, oh, oh”
As you shoot across the sky
Baby, you’re a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make ’em go, “Oh, oh, oh”
You’re gonna leave ’em all in awe, awe, awe
Song 13
There′s a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch, it’s bringing me out the dark
Finally I can see you crystal clear
Go ahead and sell me out and I′ll lay your ship bare
See how I’ll leave with every piece of you
Don’t underestimate the things that I will do
There’s a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch and it’s bringing me out the dark
The scars of your love remind me of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
The scars of your love they leave me breathless
I can’t help feeling
We could′ve had it all, Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside of your hands, and you played it to the beat
Song 14
No clouds in my stones
Let it rain, I hydroplane in the bank
Coming down with the Dow Jones
When the clouds come, we gone, we Roc-A-Fella
We fly higher than weather, in G5’s or better
You know me (you know me)
In anticipation for precipitation, stack chips for the rainy day
Jay, Rain Man is back
With Little Miss Sunshine, Rihanna, where you at?
You have my heart, and we’ll never be worlds apart
Maybe in magazines,but you’ll still be my star
Baby, ’cause in the dark, you can’t see shiny cars
And that’s when you need me there, with you, I’ll always share.
Because
When the sun shine, we shine together, told you I’ll be here forever
Said I’ll always be your friend, took an oath, I’m a stick it out to the end
Now that it’s raining more than ever, know that we’ll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella,
You can stand under my umbrella, -ella, -ella, eh, eh, eh
Under my umbrella, -ella, -ella, eh, eh, eh
Under my umbrella, -ella, -ella, eh, eh, eh
Under my umbrella, -ella, -ella, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh, eh
Song 15
If you see me walking down the street
Staring at the sky, and dragging my two feet
You just pass me by. It still makes me cry
But you can make me whole again
And If you see me with another man
I’m laughing and I’m joking, doing what I can
I won’t put you down, ‘cause want you around
You can make me whole again
Looking back on when we first met
I cannot escape and I cannot forget
Baby you’re the one, you still turn me on
You can make me whole again
………………………………
Time is laying heavy on my heart
Seems I’ve got too much of it
Since we’ve been apart
My friends make me smile
If only for while
You can make me whole again
Looking back on when we first met
I cannot escape and I cannot forget
Baby you’re the one, you still turn me on
You can make me whole again
Song 16
I love the way she fills her clothes
She looks just like them girls in Vogue
I love the way she plays it cool
I think that she is beautiful
She’s so lovely (x 7)
She’s pretty, a fitty
She’s got a boyfriend though and that’s a pity
She’s flirty turned thirty
Ain’t that the age a girl gets really dirty
I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know how we’ll make it through this
I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know
…………………………
I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know how we’ll make it through this
I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know
I love the way she bites her lip
I love the way she shakes them hips
I love the way she makes me drool
I think that she is beautiful
She’s so lovely
(Repeat)
Song 17
I think I did it again
I made you believe we’re more than just friends
Oh baby
It might seem like a crush
But it doesn’t mean that I’m serious
‘Cause to lose all my senses
That is just so typically me
Oh baby, baby
Oops, I did it again
I played with your heart, got lost in the game
Oh baby, baby
Oops, you think I’m in love
That I’m sent from above
I’m not that innocent
………………………..
You see my problem is this
I’m dreaming away
Wishing that heroes, they truly exist
I cry, watching the days
Can’t you see I’m a fool in so many ways
But to lose all my senses that is just so typically me (Oh baby, oh)
Oops, I did it again
I played with your heart, got lost in the game (Oh baby, baby)
Oops, you think I’m in love
That I’m sent from above
I’m not that innocent
Song 18
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
When the day is dawning, on a Texas Sunday morning
How I long to be there, with Marie who’s waiting for me there
Every lonely city, where I hang my hat
Ain’t as half as pretty, as where my baby’s at
Is this the way to Amarillo?
Every night I’ve been hugging my pillow
Dreaming dreams of Amarillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me
Show me the way to Amarillo
I’ve been weeping like a willow
Crying over Amarillo
And sweet Marie who waits for me
Sha la la la la la la la…
Song 19
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, Caught in a bad romance
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, Caught in a bad romance
Ra-ra-ah-ah-ah, Roma-roma-ma
Gaga, ooh la-la, Want your bad romance
I want your ugly, I want your disease
I want your everything as long as it’s free
I want your love. Love, love, love, I want your love, hey
I want your drama, the touch of your hand (hey)
I want your leather-studded kiss in the sand
I want your love. Love, love, love, I want your love
(Spoken)
You know that I want you. And you know that I need you
I want it bad. Your bad romance
(Sung)
I want your love, and I want your revenge
You and me could write a bad romance
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
I want your love, and all your lover’s revenge
You and me could write a bad romance
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh. Caught in a bad romance
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh. Caught in a bad romance
Song 20
Coming out of my cage and I’ve been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down because I want it all
It started out with a kiss how did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss, it was only a kiss
Now I’m falling asleep and she’s calling a cab
While he’s having a smoke and she’s taking a drag
Now they’re going to bed and my stomach is sick
And it’s all in my head but she’s touching his chest now
He takes off her dress now
Let me go
And I just can’t look, it’s killing me
And taking control
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea
Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis
But it’s just the price I pay
Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
‘Cause I’m Mr. Brightside
(Adding Up The Scores)
We get it on most every night
When that moon is big and bright
It’s a supernatural delight
Everybodys Dancing In The Moonlight
Dancing In The Moonlight
Everybodys feeling warm and bright
It’s such a fine and natural sight
Everybodys Dancing In The Moonlight
Winners’ Song
We are the champions, my friends
And we’ll keep on fighting till the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
‘Cause we are the champions
