Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes: The Musical
Walk me through the basics
Give me everything you've got
Is it angular? Rectangular?
We only got one shot
It's a metal plated box
Sixty centimeters long
Kid, the devil's in the details
So don't get the details wrong
There's a timer in the center
And three buttons on the right
Labeled "Echo, Bravo, Tango"
With a tiny amber light
If the Bravo's in the middle
And the Tango's to the port
Hold down Echo seven seconds
And then give me a report
Something is wrong
And the bomb's still ticking
Seems to me
Like the plot has thickened
Mission control,
I could use a code!
Well just keep talking
And no one will explode!
There are thirty-something digits
On the back-up power node
Add them all to PI and multiply by four
To find your code
If the power node is yellow,
Put the code in in reverse
Once we've finally fried the override,
I'll try to keep it terse
Reach inside the side compartment,
Pull the lever,
Vent the vapor
Then fill out the crossword puzzle
On page five of "Sunday's Paper"
Once you finish,
You'll initiate a reset protocol
In the form of a Sudoku puzzle
That you'll need to solve
Copy that,
But the puzzle's blocked
By a Captcha code
And it's combo locked!
Sounds like we're playing
On expert mode!
So just keep talking
And no one will explode!
There's an image in the corner
Cross your eyes and hold it near
If you back away and focus,
Something 3D should appear
It's an alligator!
Try again
A dolphin?
Come on kid, focus
Santa with a trombone?
Sure, we'll go with that
Now open up the lower tray
And take the scrabble letters
Cause you'll need to spell a word with them,
That's fifty points or better
Once you have the panel open,
Do the Rubik's cube inside
Better move a little quicker
Or I'll them all you died
I've uncovered several wires
Colored purple, red and yellow
If the yellow's in the middle,
Kill of Raph and Donatello
But if two are slightly salmon,
And the yellow's kind of green
Ship whichever wire's higher,
And the wires in between
Give me everything you've got
Is it angular? Rectangular?
We only got one shot
It's a metal plated box
Sixty centimeters long
Kid, the devil's in the details
So don't get the details wrong
There's a timer in the center
And three buttons on the right
Labeled "Echo, Bravo, Tango"

If the Bravo's in the middle
And the Tango's to the port
