You're in the Band

Yeah! Come on in, c'mon
Fast, fast, fast! Come in, come in
Quickly! Don't let anyone see you
What's going on Mr. Schneebly?
You want to know what's going on?
I will let you know what is going on, little miss sunshine
How come none of you told me you could play music?
What difference does it make?
What difference?
I thought you all were a bunch of little douchebags
But now I know that you're soul brothers and soul sisters

You! Zack
You ever play electric guitar?
No, my dad won't let me
Oh really?
He thinks it's a waste of time
Oh yea? Well, let's waste that time together, shall we?
Take a hold of your axe and try to pluck out this riff
That's good, that's good
Now, let your shoulders relax, you don't wanna be so stiff
Already better, yeah!
Keep on going don't stop, take it over the top
Squeeze out every last drop, make each note really pop
Give it one final whop!
And yes, you're in the band

Uh, you! What is your name?
Katie (Katie!)
Turn a cello this way and it's practically like a bass
Pop the strings when the play and watch how you shred my face
Woah, woah! Somebody find my face! She's shredding it off!
Oh no, it's right here, it's right here
Keep on rockin' each note, grab it right by the throat
Keep the rhythm afloat, don't forget to emote
And that's all that she wrote!
Baby you're in the band

Piano man!
Laurence
If you play the piano, you can play the keys
I only play classical
So just loosen it up and strut your expertise
Take a look at this music and let your mind expand
Woah, woo, woah, yes, yeah
You're in the band

Now, who is going to be my drummer?
I play percussion
Only because he's too stupid to play anything else
Shut up! (Shut up!)
Sit your butt at the skins and try to whack out a beat
That's good, that's good for my grandma, who's uh, dead
Feel the groove in your pins, then slowly turn up the heat
Ay, now he's playing like my grandma who's alive! Alright
With a rat-a-tat-tat on the bass and hi-hat
Make it juicy and fat, yes exactly like that!
And now shut it down flat
You're in the band

I need a couple of roadies
I need someone on tech
Who wants to be security? (I will!)
Can I be the stylist? (Check!) Yes!
Mr. Schneebly, I still don't have a job
Well how about being manager?
Is that something you could swing?
It means I'm putting you in charge of the whole damn thing!
We've got our band

Yes! Freddy, keep playing like that
Katie, look at me, come in on G (where did it?)
Yeah, just like that, exactly like that
Zack, my man, look at me
Crunchy chords high up on G
Just like, just like
Yeah, that's exactly what I'm looking for!
Alright, Lawrence, take me to the moon, baby!
Yes!

Ladies, look at me and do everything I do
Watch
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do

Now repeat after me, I pledge allegiance to the band!
(I pledge allegiance to the band!)
And I promise to give Mr. Schneebly full command!
(I promise to give Mr. Schneebly full command!)
And with me in control of the band as a whole
We will rock and we'll roll, with our heart and our soul

If you're in raise your hand!
I'm in the band! (Yes!)
I'm in the band!
I'm in the band!
I'm in the band! (Aw, my man!)
I'm in the band!
I'm in the band! (Yes!)
You're in the band!
We're in the band!
You're in the band!
We're in the band!
You're in the band!
