Muppet College Dorms: The Next Semester

[The Count]

*Hearing Kyle's song... Hey Kyle... That was a nice song.
But you do realize that you sang that bit in Spanish about yourself right? Cause if you do know that... You made yourself a girl when refering to yourself when singing that part.
Should go back over it and check... *PM or LMK if you want help correcting it.
*Walks off... Hmmm, wonder if Muppet Survivor will have a new episode on tonight. Heard there was someone new joining the cast, but hasn't shown up yet.

Rosita: Well, he did learn the song from me. Maybe he got confused.

 

[The Count]

Yeah... That might be the case Rosita...

*Chuckles a bit at Bryan's posting style lately... But in a good sort of way.
No worries mahn... Is all good, see you next week... If Uncle Deadly doesn't get here first.
*Leaves with a bit of maniacal laughter, as strong thunderbolt can be heard outside.

Hoots: (at the window) Hey, Telly. The bands here for a little moonlight jam. Ya wanna sing something?
Telly: (Sitting on his bed, sad) Oh I dunno...
Hoots: Okay...
Bry: (coming in the door) Hey, Telly.
Telly: *sigh* Hmrmgrm...
Bry: Was that English? Telly, what's up?
Telly: Oh, I'm just sad.
Bry: (sits by Telly) Why? What's wrong?
Telly: What isn't wrong?
Bry: Huh? (looks up and sees the evening news on the television) Oh...
Telly: It's all over and you can't get away from it!
Bry: Makes you sad, huh?
Telly: And mad! I just don't get it. Why does the world have to be like this?
Bry: Well, I understand.
Telly: You do?
Bry: Sure. There are days when I feel exactly the same way you do. Today I did.
Telly: Really?
Bry: Uh huh.

(start to sing as the band freely plays chords underneath)
Live at Five and CNN keep us all abreast
Of breaking stories that can tend to make us anxious and depressed.
Problems with no answers hang on like some nagging cough,
And ev'ry day some brand new "issue" rears its head to tick you off.

(band picks up with a slow swingy feel)

Telly: (sings) Bad guys win, optimism's wearing thin.
Things are spinning out of control.
Cynicisms all the fad.
World events can make us mad as hatters.
Almost ev'ry day some underpinning slips away.
These aren't laughing matters.

Bry: Time bombs tick, people keep on getting sick,
And a nickles not worth a cent.
Telly: (spoken) I'll say.
Bry: Wickedness and greed abound;
Just as peace is gaining ground it shatters.
Hate is here to stay and justice goes to those who pay.
Telly: (spoken) Is that supposed to make me feel better?
Bry: These aren't laughing matters.

The truth is scarier by far
Than anything that Stephen King could write.
The stories in the paper are
A daily small decline and fall spelled out in black and white.

Telly: (sings) What to do?
How to take a brighter view
When your noodle's totally fried?
Bry: Human spirits need to be leavened by some levity...
So take those blues and bounce them off the wall.
Keep your humor, please.
'Cause don't you know, it's times like these
Both: That laughing matters most of all.
(music ends)

Bry: So really, I've learned you have to try and keep up your sense of humor as much as you can. Because with all the scariness going on in the world, you have to remember all the beautiful wonderful things too. Its really the only healthy way to keep on living. And most importantly...you always have your friends to help you through.
Telly: Gee, thanks, Bry! (hugs me)
Bry: No problem! Now what do you say we get some ice cream?
Telly: That's one beautiful thing that never fails to bring a smile to this monster's face!
Bry: I'll go get the others. Hoots, you guys coming?
Hoots: You payin'?
Bry: Why not!
Hoots: Now that brings a smile to my face! Hehehe!

 

[Erine81981]

It's fine Ed. Like Rostia said. She taught me but didn't really teach me how to say guy in spainsh. So yes I did know. Thanks anyways Ed.

Grover: I heard you and Cookie Monster sang one of my songs.

Yep. But I messed up by repeating what Rostia said in my part of the song. But oh well. I was thinking guys. Would ya'll like to do some singing tonight?

Herry: That would sound terrific.

Cookie M: Oh boy another song.

Hold on just a second. *goes out into the hallway* Hey Bryan? Can me and Hoots and the band do a little number?

 

[BEAR]

Bry: Sure, Kyle. No problem. Hey, Hoots! Kyle needs you in his room.
Hoots: Another gig! Come on, guys, let's get to gettin'!

 

[Erine81981]

Out in the Hallway......

Ok. Everyone were going to be playing this little diddy out in the hallway. Got it?

*mutters are heard*

We got Hoots and Herry Monster on the sax,
(Hoots and Herry both yell)
Me and Dip Cat on the drums,
(We both play our drums a little)
Grover and Chip Cat on bass,
(Grover and Chip play a little on their bass guitars) Leo Birdelli on trumpet (plays a note on her trumpet) and last but not least....Mr. Dog and Cookie Monster on piano and keybord. (both yell too) Are ya'll ready to rock?!

Everyone: YEAH!

Then let's kick it!

(Everyone starts jamming out to Jive Bunny with all the old song mixed)

(Saxes and trumpet at the beginning of the song)

Chip and Dip: One, two, three o'clock, four o'clock rock
Five, six, seven o'clock, eight o'clock rock
Nine, ten, eleven o'clock, twelve o'clock rock

Everyone: We're gonna rock around the clock tonight

Chip and Dip: Put your glad rags on, join me, Hon
We'll have some fun when the clock strikes one
We're gonna rock around the clock tonight

Everyone: We're gonna rock, rock, rock, 'til broad daylight
Gonna rock, gonna rock around the clock tonight

Grover: Rock rock rock everybody
Roll roll roll roll everybody
Rock rock rock rock everybody
Roll roll roll roll everybody
Rock rock rock rock everybody
Rock it to the cool with me

(little funny nosies are made inbetween)

Hoots and Cookie Monster: Wake up little Susie, wake up
Wake up little Susie, wake up
We've both been sound asleep
Wake up little Susie and weep
The movie's over, it's four o'clock
And we're in trouble deep
Wake up little Susie, wake up little Susie
We gotta go home

(a bird coos in the background of this part inbetween)

Mr. Dog: You ain't nothing but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time
You ain't nothing but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time
Well you ain't ever caught a rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine

(Drum solo for Me and Dip)

Everyone: Shake, shake, shake, shake, rattle And roll.
I said Shake Rattle And Roll.
I said Shake Rattle And Roll.
I said Shake Rattle And Roll.

Cookie Monster and Grover: A well I bless my soul
What’s wrong with me?
I’m itching like a man on a fuzzy tree
My friends say I’m actin’ wild as a bug
I’m in love
I’m all shook up

Herry and Hoots: The warden threw a party in the county jail.
The prison band was there and they began to wail.
The band was jumpin’ and the joint began to swing.
You should’ve heard those knocked out jailbirds sing.
Let’s rock, everybody, let’s rock.
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin’ to the jailhouse rock

(Keybord and Piano start up)

Mr.Dog and Cookie Monster: Bah-bah-bah-bah, bah-bah-bah-bah
Bah-bah-bah-bah. bah-bah-bah-bah, at the hop! Hop! Hop! Hop! Hop!

(music starts up again like at the start)

(Hoots, Herry and Leo Birdelli end with a horn blazing note)

 

[BEAR]

Hoots: Woo! That was smokin'. Okay, everybody! Take five!
Cookie: (holding up a number 5) Where shall me take it?
Everyone: Cookie!
Cookie: Ha ha ha!
Hoots: Well, on that note--
(is interupted by Birdelli blowin a G note on his horn and, oddly enough, an animated G floats out)
Hoots: (doing a double-take) Was that the letter of the day?
(laughs from the band)
Hoots: Oh man. You guys are too much.








(ooc: hope its okay I used Cookie for that bit, Kyle)

 

[The Count]

Ah... Another day at MC Dorms... Well, had my bowl of cereal and I'm all washed up...
Better head on over to the common room and catch up on my fanfics. Maybe Uncle Deadly and the Count are there already.
