Song 10: "Finale Medley"

Pupils 7,8,9 and 10 onstage (ALL sing)

What is this strange machine?

Should we just turn it on?

Covered in dust, looks like it's been here for years

I've got a feeling that something

Really strange has begun.​

The Genius Machine

The Genius Machine

So small, yet so powerful

So bad, yet so good

Step back and hope for the best

From our Genius Machine

Pupils 7,8,9 and 10 exit stage, PE teacher and footballers enter

Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo

Doo doo doo

Look into my anxious eyes

Can't you see how worried I am?

Yeah yeah yeah

I am a defender and my team mate 

Has just brought down a man.

Yeah yeah yeah

The referee's just blown their whistle

They really did go in very hard.

Now all we can do is hope and pray

That they do not now reach for a card

Got to defend a free kick

Oh, oh, oh

How to defend a free kick

Oh, oh, oh

Now we're pretty good at this

No we're not too shoddy

Don't let that ball get past your body

Oh...no... 

Got to defend a free kick.

PE teacher and footballers exit stage. History teacher and pupils enter

Anglo Saxons lived long ago

They came from Europe, see how they row

Landed in Anglia, in the East

To celebrate, they had a feast.

Wooden house were what they built

They drove out the Celts and felt no guilt

Used helmets, armour, sword and shields

And when they were done, they farmed their fields

 

Anglo Saxons...yeah

Anglo Saxons...yeah

Anglo Saxons...yeah

Anglo Saxons...yeah

History teacher and pupils exit stage. Caretaker and cleaners enter.

Now you see me as a figure of fun

Working in the background fixing the school.

Back in the 80s yeah, I was the one

I was a legend, man I was so cool.

I strutted like a peacock

On the dancefloor and stage

I was a fashion icon, defining an age

I moved throughout society

With such style and flair

A party wasn't happening

If I wasn't there!

So take me back to the 80s

Take, take me back to the 80s

Life was so great in the 80s

Oh I belong in the 80s...yeah!

Caretaker and cleaners exit. Mr Johnson, Nigel and Hubert enter

Don'tcha Know? Don'tcha Know?

Don'tcha Know who I am?...I said

Don'tcha Know? Don'tcha Know?

Don'tcha Know who I am?

I'll move millions of records...yeah, yeah, yeah

Sell out stadiums and halls...yeah, yeah, yeah

I'll have fans in ev'ry country

My music will have broken down walls

So I just don't understand it

That puzzled look when you look at my face

Surely you must have heard of me

Like everybody else in the human race.

Tell me...yeah, yeah

Tell me...yeah, yeah

Tell me...yeah, yeah

Tell me that you know who I am!

 

I'll be the King of Rock n roll...uh, uh, huh!

I'll be the King of Rock n roll...uh, uh, huh!

I'll be the King of Rock n roll...uh, uh, huh!

I'll the King of Rock n Rooooooll!

 

Thank you very much
