Shar wears
this dress, Shenice wears
this one, and Graziella is in
this. All are wearing
black pumps,
tube socks (each one with stripes matching the color of the dress), and Graziella has
nerd glasses. They all have kid-like hair styles (Graziella has pig tails, Shar has a braid, and Shenice has curled "pageant hair"). All three are sitting on a
park bench at the center of the stage. More similarly dressed back-up dancers sit on park benches next to Miss Frank (the set up of the benches looks like half of an arial view of a hexagon), some holding balloons and lollipops. Shar stands up as she sings her verse, all of the girls stand up at the start of the chorus, and the dancers start dancing at the "Walking down Penny Lane" line. Miss Frank sit down on the bench when the ice cream truck sound comes in at the end, while all of the back-up dancers run off stage, as if chasing the ice cream truck.
Lyrics breakdown:
[All]
Buildings come crumbling
Right to the ground
And I can’t help noticing
When I’m looking around
When I’m looking around
Windows can’t see in ‘em
To let me lies
We won’t be taking it
Look ‘em right in the eyes
Look ‘em right in the eyes
[Shar]
Oh, if I had my way
I’d throw everything away
I’d draw it all up again
Keep walking with me
Oh, if I had my way
I’d give everything I have
To make everything okay
Sing it with me
[All]
Darkness falls and kills the light
Don’t surrender, be alright
Fuse blow up like dynamite
And the children keep on singing, singing
Darkness falls and kills the light
Don’t surrender, be alright
Innocence like flying kites
And the children keep on singing, singing
Walking down Penny Lane
Walk, walk of gold
Follow the rainbow
To the end of the road
To the end of the road
Still got me nothing
Nothing but road
They say ‘It’s funny’
I’m not getting the joke
I’m not getting the joke
[Shenice]
Oh, if I had my way
I’d throw everything away
I’d draw it all up again
Keep walking with me
Oh, if I had my way
I’d give everything I have
To make everything okay
Sing it with me
[All]
Darkness falls and kills the light
Don’t surrender, be alright
Fuse blow up like dynamite
And the children keep on singing, singing
Darkness falls and kills the light
Don’t surrender, be alright
Innocence like flying kites
And the children keep on singing, singing
[Graziella]
Grazi, It's us, Miss Frank
I’ll hold you down
Watching the tv, man, kids just want to be famous
And be a big star, rather be known than be nameless
If i had my away, i’d draw it all up again
Can’t take a loss, we must stood up and win
Momma was hurting and she couldn’t spend a penny more
But why nobody have real dreams anymore
Forget the issues and worries this is something about
Supporting optimistic dreams when it’s crumbling down
[Shar + Shenice (while Graziella finishes the rap)]
Sing it with us!
[All]
Darkness falls and kills the light
Don’t surrender, be alright
Fuse blow up like dynamite
And the children keep on singing, singing
Darkness falls and kills the light
Don’t surrender, be alright
Innocence like flying kites
And the children keep on singing, singing
And the children keep on singing, singing (x2)
