#8 AIN'T NO GOIN' BACK (reprise)
VOICE
TOFFEE, TOFFEE...
TOFFEE
Jonny.....?
MISS STRICT
Oh, Jonny, Jonny, Jonny...! Get your mind out of the graveyard, Toffee,
and onto more important matters. Your appearance, for example.
Black is simply not your color.
(STRICT exits. The set changes to the locker hallway.)
VOICE
TOFFEE, TOFFEE,
SAY YOU'LL BE TRUE....
TOFFEE
JONNY, JONNY,
CAN THAT BE YOU...?
VOICE
AS BOUNDLESS AS THE HEAVENS,
ETERNAL AS THE SOUL.
AS DESTINED AS THE SUNSET
WHEN THE CREDITS START TO ROLL.
AS CERTAIN AS THE STARLIGHT
WHEN THE DAY HAS GONE TO BLACK.
YES, IT'S SAID AND DONE.
OUR SOULS ARE ONE!
TOFFEE
JONNY, JONNY,
HOW CAN THIS BE?
VOICE
TOFFEE, TOFFEE,
COME SET ME FREE!
TOFFEE, TOFFEE
ARE YOU READY FOR MORE?
OPEN THE DOOR, TOFFEE,
OPEN THE DOOR.... |
KIDS
ALL THE BAD TIMES,
SAD AND SCARY,
LEAVE 'EM IN
THE CEMETERY.
JUST IMAGINE
WHAT'S AHEAD.
LIFE IS JAM
AND GINGERBREAD.
NO USE DWELLING
ON THE DEAD!
TAKE EACH MOMENT
AS IT COMES.
IF LIFE'S THE PITS
THEN FIND THE PLUMS.
MARCH WITH US
AND HEED THE DRUMS OF --
RULES, REGULATIONS,
AND RE... |
(TOFFEE is about to open the locker, when it explodes.
A phosphorescent green JONNY lurches out, a spectacular display of decomposition
and decaying flesh.)
