Time To Play

Alright, until Mr. Schneebly comes back from the faculty meeting, I am in charge
Say's who?
Say's me, the band manager
Get it?

Hey! Ain't got all day
Get moving
Only 36 hours, 'til the battle
You, no one comes through, that door
On it, security roll out
No distractions, no delays
This is for our resumes!
So, it's time to go, hardcore

No talk, no gum smacking
Cell phones away
Go punk, or start packing
Get to work, it's time to play
Wake up, stop daydreaming
Do as I say
Get those guitars screaming
Clear the room, it's time to play

You, go on and cue, the light board
Fade down to three and then back up to seven
You, show them the new, hot move
Right, a five, six, seven, eight!
Look rebellious, act more crude
Bring your best bad attitude
Band, get ready and
Let's groove!

Hips out, and heads banging
Work that sashay
Now bring, the whole gang in
Hustle up. It's time to play
Hands high, and fists pumping
Sneers on display
Let's get, this joint jumping
Bring it on, it's time to play!

Has the microphone been tested? Check!
What about the stand? Check!
Please stay tanned and rested, and await my next command
Are the pyrotechnics ready?
I'll check
And synced to the routine, check!
I'm counting on you Sophie, don't screw up the fog machine, duh!
Who's the got speaker cable? Come on this isn't hard!
I'm ordering it!

Get extra if you're able, put it on your mother's card, right!
What about the song list? Printed like I said? Uhh
If you brought the wrong list, I swear to god you're dead
Got the flanger? Yup
The phaser? Yup
The pedals and effects? Yup
Make sure he remembers, or I'm breaking both your necks
Sure!
Keep your voices rested, warm up before you sing, right
I'm of course prepared, and that means just one thing

You, can we review the costumes?
I'm still working out some looks
Jeez! Don't be a tease, let's go
Well, I'm thinking a grunge, punk, glam kinda look
Look we don't have time to waste
While you try to find some taste
Fine, here's the design
Hell no!
Ditch the sequence

Amps cranked, and drums beating
Don't stop half way
Let's leave, some ears bleeding
Turn it up, it's time to play

Don't slack, there's no cruising
No way, Jose!
This band is not losing
Bring the noise, it's time to play
Rock the mics, it's time to play
World watch out, it's time to play!

Moses on the move
Oh my gosh!
World watch out, it's time to play!
