2011 Pantomime ‘The tunnel’
Everyone
(Pantomime opener) ‘You can’t stop the beat’ by Hairspray
You can’t stop an pantomime
As we perform it in our hall
You can try to stop the music, girl
But ya know you never will
And you can try to stop my dancin' feet
But i just cannot stand still
Cause the world keeps spinnin'
Round and round
And my heart's keeping time
To the speed of sound
I was lost til i heard the drums
Then i found my way
You’ll enjoy our show
Ever since this old show began
A woman found out if she shook it
She could shake up a man
And so i'm gonna shake and shimmy it
The best that i can today
'Cause you cant stop
The motion of the ocean
Or the sun in the sky
You can wonder if you wanna
But i never ask why
And if you try to hold me down
I'm gonna spit in your eye and say
You’ll enjoy our show
You can't stop a pantomime
when the lights lit up a stage
You can try and stop the hands of time
But ya know it just can't be
And if they try to stop us, teachers,
I'll call the D O C Ser-vi-ceees
Cause the world keeps spinning
Round and 'round
And my heart's keeping time
To the speed of sound
I was lost til i heard the drums
Then i found my way
You’ll enjoy our show
Ever since we first saw the light
A boy and girl liked to shake it
On a pantomime night
And so i'm gonna shake and shimmy it
With all my might today
'Cause you cant stop
The motion of the ocean
Or the rain from above
You can try to stop the paradise
We're dreamin' of
But you cannot stop the rhythm
for the love of a show today
You’ll enjoy our show !
Tahnee’s part
Isabella’s part
You can't stop a pantomime
when the lights lit up a stage
You can try and stop the hands of time
But ya know it just can't be
And if they try to stop us, teachers,
I'll call the D O C Ser-vi-ceees
Cause the world keeps spinning
Round and 'round
And my heart's keeping time
To the speed of sound
I was lost til i heard the drums
Then i found my way
You’ll enjoy our show
Ever since we first saw the light
A boy and girl liked to shake it
On a pantomime night
And so i'm gonna shake and shimmy it
With all my might today
'Cause you cant stop
The motion of the ocean
Or the rain from above
You can try to stop the paradise
We're dreamin' of
But you cannot stop the rhythm
for the love of a show today
You’ll enjoy our show !
Chorus Song
Blue Skies
Blue skies smiling at me
Nothing but blue skies do I see
Bluebirds singing a song
Nothing but bluebirds all day long
Never saw the sun shining so bright
Never saw things going so right
Noticing the days hurrying by
When you're in love,oh my how they fly
Blue days, all of them gone
Nothing but blue skies from now on
Clumsy Kevin’s Song
‘That’s Amore’
When the Moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie that’s just clumsy
When you trip on a line like you’ve had too much wine that’s just
clumsy
Pots that clang, bangle bangle bang bangle bangle bang and you
fall in the cellar
Feet of clay, stumble stumble stray stumble stumble stray and they
yell ‘clumsy fella’
When you slip like a dork get your eye with your fork that’s just
clumsy
How can I even hope that I’ll ever find someone to love?
So I walk in a dream even though I’m not dreaming; just clumsy
‘Scuse me but you see, down inside, deep in me, I’m not clumsy.
Flooper and Grimace’s song
’Money makes the world go round’
Money makes the world go round
The world go round, the world go round
Money makes the world go round
It makes the world go round
A mark, a yen, a buck or a pound
A buck or a pound, a buck or a pound
Is all that makes the world go round
That clinking, clanking sound
Can make the world go round
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money, money
If you happen to be rich and you feel like a night's
entertainment
You can pay for a fun escapade
If you happen to be rich, and alone, and you need
A companion, you can ring tingaling for a friend
If you happen to be rich and you find you are left by your
mother
Tho you moan and you groan quite a lot
You can take it on the chin
Call a cab, and begin to recover on your fourteen carat
yacht
Grimace WHAT
Money makes the world go round
The world go round, the world go round
Money makes the world go round
Of that we both are sure
On being poor
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money
Money, money, money, money, mon
Money makes the world go round
The world go round, the world go round
Money makes the world go round
The clinking, clanking sound of money
Money, money, money, money, money, money, money
Get a little, get a little
Money, money, money, money
Mark, a yen, a buck or a pound
That clinking, clanking, clunking sound
Is all that makes the world go round
It makes the world go round
Blue Rinse Fairy
‘Friend like me’
Well feral Cheryl was bored today
She was sitting there all drip
But Cheryl you’re in luck today
cause I’m sending you on a trip
You were sitting there like a loser, girl
With nothing else really to do
So I have got a plan in mind
Your joining clumsy Kevin too!
Feral Cheryl girl
You look like misery,
Let me take your wish
Jot it down
You ain't never had a fairy like me
No no no
Life is your restaurant
And I'm your maitre d'
C'mon whisper what it is you want
You ain't never had a fairy like me
You needed a boy fairy
You're the boss
Our shining star,
Say what you wish
It's yours! True dish
How about a little more thanklava?
Havea look at audience "A"
And maybe audience "B"
I'm in the mood to help you girl
You ain't never had a fairy like me
Ha ha ha no no
Ha ha ha no no
Ha ha ha no no
You ain't never had a fairy like me
Can your friends do this?
Do your friends do that?
Do your friends pull this,
Out their little hat?
Can your friends go, poof!
Well, looky here
Can your friends go, Abracadabra, let 'er rip
Then make the sucker disappear!
So don’t just sit there sadlygirl
I can answer all your prayers
You’ve got me here now, in a whirl
I’m the fairy for all your fairs
I’ve got an urge to help you out
So what’s ya wish? I wanna know
You’ve got a list that's pretty long,
All you have to do is ask Oh Oh Oh
Bored little Cheryl girl, have a wish or two or three
I'm on the job, you big nabob
You ain't never had a fairy, never had a fairy
You ain't never had a fairy, never had a fairy
You ain't, never, ever, had a fairy like me,
ha ha no no ha ha no no
You ain't never had a fairy like me!
Chorus Song
‘Anything Goes’
A normal day he’d do the shopping
But now there is nothing stopping
Our hero’s toes
There Kevin goes
Good authors they will write her ventures
And tales will be told through dentures
Of all her woes
There Cheryl goes
The world has gone mad today, so much bad today
And we’ve lost our way, but we’ve hope today
For they’re on their way, to bring us back some day
What we need, so we suppose
If we get back the things we lack then we’ll get the community-here
back on track
And end all our woes
If we get back the things we lack then we’ll get the community-here
back on track
There they both go.
CHORUS : shouts ‘goodbye’, ‘good luck’ etc as they leave
Baker’s Song
”Oh a baker, keeps on baking, Wholemeal sourdough and fluffy
white
He’s an artiste, is a baker, And he works hard, day and night
Then a gangly, clumsy footed, lanky clanking streak of lard
Comes gal-lopping through the back gate and makes a mess of my
back yard
I’m a baker, so I’m patient, Waiting, waiting for bread to rise
But that patience, gets sorely tested, Once our Kevin, has arrived
Lovely croissants, spiral meringues, gluggy chocolate, pie supreme
All are flattened, in an instant, it’s a nightmare, not a dream.
I’m a baker, so I’m patient, Waiting, waiting for bread to rise
But that patience, gets sorely tested, Once our Kevin has arrived
Is there a reason, we must suffer, Kevin’s manners, so slapdash
Yes I’m angry, but I don’t think, what I’m saying, is too rash
I’ve discussed it, with the others, Widow Twankey, Farmer Brown,
And we reckon Clumsy Kevin should leave our little town
Yes we reckon Clumsy Kevin should leave our little town.
Flooper, Grimace and Procs
‘Pork Walk’ same as ‘Time Warp’
Flooper
It's astounding, time is fleeting
Madness takes its toll
But listen closely,
Grimace
Not for very much longer
Flooper
I've got to, keep control
I remember, doing the Pork Walk
Drinking, those moments when
The blackness would hit me and the void would be calling
Porks / Dancers
Let's do the pork walk again...
Let's do the pork walk again!
Flooper
It's just a jump to the left
Everyone
And then a step to the right
Flooper
With your hands in the air
Everyone
You bring your knees in tight
it's the awkward walk that really drives you insane,
Let's do the Pork Walk again!
Let's do the Pork Walk again!
Head Pork
It's so dreamy, oh fantasy free me
So you can't see me, no not at all
In another dimension, with voyeuristic intention
Well-secluded, I see all
Flooper
With a bit of a mind flip
Head Pork
You're there in the time slip
Flooper
And nothing can ever be the same
Head Pork
You're spaced out on sensation,
Flooper
like you're under sedation
Everyone
Let's do the Pork Walk again!
Let's do the Pork Walk again!
Grimace
Well I was walking down the street just a-having a think
When a pork of a pig gave me an evil wink
He shookin me up, he took me by surprise
He had a pickup truck and the devil's eyes.
He stared at me and I felt a change
Time meant nothing, never would again
Everyone
Let's do the Pork Walk again!
Let's do the Pork Walk again!
Flooper
It's just a jump to the left
Everyone
And then a step to the right
Flooper
With your hands in the air
Everyone
You bring your knees in tight
it's the awkward walk that really drives you insane,
Let's do the Pork Walk again!
Let's do the Pork Walk again!
The Terror
‘The Masochism Tango’
My hands they are hairy and scary
I’m not like those silly fluffy fairies
I’ve got bad breath and I’ll scare you to death
Because I’m the Terror of the Tunnel
My eyes are like red burning embers
There’s a risk that you’re going to be dismembered
I’ll blacken your eye, set fire to your tie
Because I’m the Terror of the Tunnel
At my command, before me here you stand
I’ll fart upon demand
I’m gross as gross can be
There’s no retreat, I’ll gnash you with my teeth
Or crush you with my feet, so don’t you try to flee
My heart’s hard as stone or mahogany
And I love to exert exquisite agony
A big nasty troll, who lives in a hole
That’s me, I’m the Terror of the Tunnel
A big nasty troll who lives in a hole
That’s me, I’m the Terror of the Tunnel.
