[Team StarKid, Joey Richter, Lauren Lopez, Corey Dorris, Jeff Blim, Robert Manion - Show Stoppin Number lyrics]
It's a show stoppin' number
A real showstopper
A show stoppin' number, come on
Something to shock 'em
To bring them a-crawling
A big-time box office draw
With the press and the glamor
We'll kill the reviews
Spotlight on Mr ingénue
So fill up your tumbler
Got a show stoppin' number for you
Professor, please
If they find us they will kill us!
A show stoppin' number
Is something you die for
A real catchy, earwormy tune
An award-winning score
That seeps in and out of your pores
A ditty to make the chorus girls swoon
It'll unify humanity in a thundering chorus
No exit's from this Broadway venue
So splash those shiny cymbals
Got a show stoppin' hymnal for you
(spoken) this song's pretty good
Huh? I bet you didn't know I was also
A composer in fact, while I've
Been preparing for the apocalypse
I've also been writing my own musical
Do you mind if I give you the pitch?
We don't have time
Fuckin' go for it!
It's called: Working Boys: A New Musical it's
The story of a group of
Old college chums sure, they found success
In the business world still
They can't help but long
For the simpler times, back in that beat-up
Old house at the edge of
Campus but those glory days
They're gone for good
Or are they? This here is the title number!
(sung)
Business calls, I'm up to my ass in shit
What is this business?
Markets are crashing and I'm at
The edge of my wit's i just can't take it
When all I want to do
Is spend the day with Greg and Steve
And Stu and Mark
And Leighton and Chad
(spoken)
Ring, ring the phone rings i answer it
Oh, hey Greg i'm swamped
With business stocks, bonds, golden
Parachutes remember those days on
The football field
Greg? Last weekend feels like ages ago
What? Today? After work? On the football
Field? The old stomping ground, eh
Greg? Just you and me and Steve and Stu
And Mark and Leighton and Chad
Five o'clock i'll see you then, Greg
I'll see you then
(sung) all I want to do
Is spend the day with Steve and
Five o'clock can't come soon enough
Five o'clock can't come soon enough
Five o'clock can't come soon enough
I can't wait to get home to my boys
A show stoppin' number a real showstopper
An aria to rule them all
They'll throw us their money
At full price admission
The world will come crumblin' down
Hamilton, move over
Your new competition's in town
Hey Henry!
Greg! Is that really you?
Professor, no! That's not Greg!
Been a long time
Hey boys, wanna toss that pigskin around?
Stu! You haven't aged a day! Is it
Five o'clock already? It must be!
Come on
Henry we've got some catching up to do
Working boys, we're up in our ass in shit
What is this business?
Five o'clock can't come soon enough
Five o'clock can't come soon enough
Five o'clock can't come soon enough
I can't wait to get home to my boys!
A real showstopper
A show stoppin' number, come on
Something to shock 'em
To bring them a-crawling
