An Organized Life
by Vanities the Musical

(Performed by Lauren Kennedy (Mary), Anneliese Van Der Pol (Kathy) and Sarah Stiles (Joanne)

Everything in life depends on good preperation
Cheerlearders need to live up to demands
If we're not afective then we have to work harder
Know our routines like the back of our hands
We need to drill them all
So that the job gets done
We need to run these cheers
So we can cheer each one
We need to rouse the crowd
But never crowd the team
And then the team will love us
And the crowd will cheer us
And the world will know
We're as perfect as we seem

Hey you gotta organize friday evening
You got your varsity game of football
You gotta stair on the sidelines
Helping them win

Then we'll go with our guys to some perfecrt setting
Finish them out with a little petting
And that's how you begin to have an organized life

Now we got to decide the theme for the football dance
It's less than a mile away
Themes for the football dance are always so corney
Well I was thinking about over the rainbow
I think that sounds more like the prom
ShouldnIt the football dance have something to do with football

Yes now I'm sorry but I know what I'm doing
Over the rainbow is what it will be
I don't know I sorta think we need something better
Well over the rainbow sounds perfect to me
We'll need some big balloons
No I think balloons are squear maybe
We'll decorate the gym in lots of colors
I know what shoes I'll wear... what are you gunna wear?
I'll buy a tight nit dress
I'll get a new hair style
I'll make a big huge rainbow and use chicken wire
And stuff it full of tisue colored by the mile

And we'll have an organized night of dancing
We'll have our over the rainbow outfits
Be in charge of the punch bowl
Starting the trends
We'll be girls to the rest of the mires
Some planing and chicken wire
We're 3 best friends live an organized organized life

Life is full of drama
Life is full of dreams and promises
But its up to you to make it through and pass each test
You can make it

I know we can run this house show
So simply follow me
And we can be the best

Now when the dance is done they pick the football queen
I really hope its you
I'm sure you get it marry
I don't know what you mean
I hope you get it
No I hope it's you
Now come on
If not I'll slit my throught
There's only one thing certain
One of us will get it
But to just make certain
We should maybe fix the vote and so we need to organize all of our boyfriends
We need to infulence all of there team mates
We need to through them a party
That's how this goes
Since we know that the team controls all the inputing
Nothing is wrong with some self promoting
Let's just go to those who have an organized organized life

So now we have an organized plan of action
Most organized to our advantage
Taking charge of our class mates
Pulling some strings
Popularity's yours if you go and win it
Power begins with how you get it
And preparation wins when you have an organized life
Take care of little things
You'll have an organized life

I Cant Imagine
by Vanities the Musical

(Performed by Lauren Kennedy (Mary), Anneliese Van Der Pol (Kathy) and Sarah Stiles (Joanne)

I can't stand the idea of a new school with new people
What if they all hate us
I'd die
What if Gary, Jim and Ted don't wanna go with us
I would just die
What if we don't get in the same sorority
Oh my god I would really die

Since we started senior year
Theres one thing on my mind
What happens when the tree of us leave high school far behind

What if I don't get admited but both of you do
What if all the got left is a dorm room for two
I would not get by no I think I would die
If I can't share collage with you
I can't imagine I can't imagine
Not having both of you there at my side
I can't imagine no I cant imagine
Not being with you the rest of the ride
Yes I know I still have Ted who's in my head and heart
But you are the most important thing in my life
I can't imagine us ever being apart

Maybe Jim and I will live together
You can't do that it's not right
Besides the collage won't let you
Freshman stay in the dorm
We got to have a plan
So much to think about sororities our boyfriends

One thing just occurred to me
That fills me up with fear
What happens if that brend up there is still around next year
What if every girl is pretty and looks like a star
What if every girl has money and drives her own car
Can we play the game when its not the same as it is right here where we are

I can't imagine I can't imagine
Not being popular part of that group
I can't imagine no I cant imagine
People won't love us whatever we do

All life long we've been adored
Which makes me sort of proud
Cause that is the most important thing in this life
I can't imagine us being one of the crowd

Right now we're fine right here we're great
Our world is how it's supposed to be
I keep in line my path is straight
As I hold both of you close to me

Hurrying into the future
But not letting go of the past
Taking account of what matters and making it last

Imagine where we are
Imagine what comes next

I can't imagine uh huh I cant imagine
Everything's perfect the way it is here
I can't imagine no I cant imagine
How we will be In a year next year
Who we are the things we do
Took four years to maintain
Now this is the most important time in my life
I can't imagine oh I cant imagine
I can't imagine why it should change

I Dont Wanna Miss A Thing
by Vanities the Musical

(Performed by Lauren Kennedy (Mary), Anneliese Van Der Pol (Kathy) and Sarah Stiles (Joanne)

Isn't it amazing
I can feel this great like the whole worlds waiting on me

When I snap my fingers people all count out
And I guess thats how it was meant to be

My futures near so I'm aiming straight ahead
Cause it's all garenteed I will get what I need
Like my parents always said

I'm telling you (uh oh)
I don't wanna miss a thing (no)
I know I can have it all (whoa)
I want the american dream
My mom and dad both promised
That I'll have it on a string
I'll be living in bliss
And I don't wanna miss a thing

Everyday is Christmas
The whole year long and theres nothing wrong about that

I get all I ask for
From a teddy bear to a troll doll wearing a pill box heat

As for my goals theres no secret in my search
Be a mother and wife for the rest of my life
With a few short breaks for church

So sing it now (uh oh)
I don't wanna miss a thing (no)
I'm not gunna be denied (whoa)
I want the american dream
And I'll have the perfect husband
And the perfect diamond ring
Moving on with a kiss
And I don't wanna miss a thing

I wanna have a couple kids
I wanna join a country club
I wanna live just like a queen
I'm Miss America

I wanna bake a casserole
I wanna make a jello mold
I wanna cook but never clean
I wanna have the perfect house
I wanna aford the perfect Tv set
i wanna look like Doris Day

I wanna man to cherish me
I wanna man whos organized
I wanna man who listens when I say
Now listen to me baby

(Uh oh)
I don't wanna miss a thing (no)
I don't wanna miss the bus (whoa)
I want the american dream
And together we will grab it
And together we will sing

Nothings better than this
Nothings better than this
I don't wanna miss
I don't wanna miss no
i don't wanna miss a thing

Fly Into the Future
by Vanities the Musical

(Performed by Lauren Kennedy (Mary)

There she goes again
Look at Chatty Kathy
Keeping track of life with her paper and pen

Then there's poor Joanne
Desperate to marry
Bringing up her wedding again and again

This would be my world
This is what I'm in for
Years of planning parties and being a wife

Sing song
Lime green
I don't want to be mean but this isn't my scene
And I feel like I need something bigger
From life

Growing up was stifling cause I was never free
School is getting stale and I'm sick of this sorority
Think I need some distance a place to disappear

So it's adios and away I go and I'm kind of scared but the moments here to
Fly into the future
Gonna roll gonna ride so that no one can find me
I'm flying into the future
Moving on with my life and leaving all this behind me

Free from textbooks, free from Texas, free from folks who give me flack
I'm gonna fly into the future
Time to fly
And I'll never look back

I could grab my pencil and make some little plan
I could be a housewife and settle down to serve a man
I could take a job with my Bachelor's Degree
But I think I'll go to the Colosseum and take some bachelors home with me and

Fly into the future
Where there's no one to boss me or judge how I'm living
There's only me and my future
Plus a couple Italian boys who like what I'm giving
No commitment, no conditions, no connections that can last

Not when I fly into the future
Once I fly
I'll be through with my past

Mama is a coward
Mama is a drunk
Mama sleeps with Howard when she gets in a funk

Howard's kinda creepy
Howard's kinda crude
Howard's really fat and walks around in the nude

Dad ran off with Julie
Mama hates his guts
He's okay but truly my whole family is nuts

Mama doesn't like me
I don't even try which is why I just gotta say goodbye and fly into the future

I'll be up in the sky soon as Braniff can take me
And fly me into the future
Where the freedom I find is gonna make me or break me

No restrictions, No relations, No ridiculous demands
Watch Mary fly into the future
Watch her fly
See her fly
And we'll see where she lands
And we'll see where she lands
And we'll see where she lands.

Cute Boys With Short Haircuts
by Vanities the Musical

(Performed by Anneliese Van Der Pol (Kathy)

Seems like one of those "where did I go wrong?" days
Cant stop crying and I guess I'm not so strong days
Lost the only guy I ever had
It's been one of those seems like I've been scared years
Cant get out of bed and life is kinda hard years
No one ever made me feel so sad

Now all I see are cute boys
With short haircuts walking by in a blur
And all I see is him and me
The way we always were
Thats how it goes when cute boys with short haircuts
Set your senses astir
He says he's true and ditches you for her

When you find a man you don't wanna share him
But there's someone always thinking she can spare him
Laying out the perfect little trap
You can play it safe sure you got a smart plan
Soon it's just another love can fall apart plan
Guess sometimes we all could use a map
Just stear us through

The cute boys with short haircuts
In a maze of their own
And here I am a little lamb so lost and all alone

Out numbered by the cute boys with short haircuts
Sitting high on some thrown
I'm here below unseen and so unknown

There was a time when everyone would notice me
Before whatever strength I had was gone
I want the things to be the way they used to be
But nothing stops the world from moving on

And nothing stops the cute boys with short haircuts
Who surround me each day
Not so grand we're in demand
But pretty like they say
Not pretty like the cute boys with short haircuts
With the games that they play
The games of all the cute boys with broud shoulders
Lovin' all they survey and loving all these cute boys
With low voices and no morals and no interest

Cute boys with short haircuts
Never looking my way
So here I sit and thats how it will stay
Thanks to shaterd trust and some slight disgust
no more cute boys with short haircuts
And I guess thats just okay

Argument
by Vanities the Musical

(Performed by Lauren Kennedy (Mary), Anneliese Van Der Pol (Kathy) and Sarah Stiles (Joanne)

FLORENCE
I would have thought in the average affair
That the first hint of trouble would be
Oh so small; barely perceptible, easy to miss
Why is ours on TV?

THE RUSSIAN
Listen - you know as I do
Nothing's altered at all
I have no intention

FLORENCE
Your personal life's
The lead on the news!
How do we ignore that?

THE RUSSIAN
I do and I must because otherwise I say
Goodbye to my hopes of retaining my title
If I should succumb to emotional blackmail I'm done

FLORENCE
Looking after number one!

THE RUSSIAN
What do you mean?

FLORENCE
I mean it's always I this and I that
What happened to us?

THE RUSSIAN
All that I'm saying is I must make certain
That nothing distracts me from chess
When I've won
Then I'll attend to the secondary things

FLORENCE
Things like me I suppose!

THE RUSSIAN
No, no - you're reacting
Exactly the way that they want

FLORENCE
It's the way I have to
If I feel concerned I can't put it off
And come back to it later

THE RUSSIAN
Well if you're determined to jump when they tell you
Then maybe it's best that you do it alone
Watch "TV, read the papers, have the miserable time of your life
You could even call my wife!

Friendship Isnt What It Used to Be
by Vanities the Musical

(Performed by Lauren Kennedy (Mary), Anneliese Van Der Pol (Kathy) and Sarah Stiles (Joanne)

Three pretty girls in a schoolyard,
Playin' games and makin' noise
You wouldd think they had been best friends forever
Talkin' algebra and boys

They were each of them after the big brass ring
So they swore they'd never be apart
And if it rang a little false...
Still, it was said with all their heart

Laughing, dancing,
Off on a spree!
Not that none of it meant a thing... But friendship isn't what it used to be


Three college girls at the movies
Falling hard for Steve McQueen
You would think that they had so much in common
If you stumbled on the scene

Then you peel back the layers of teenage ties
And a lot of what they shared is gone
They left each other far behind
And never noticed they moved on

Life flows, time flies
People roam free
No one says it and nothing dies
But friendship isn't what it used to be

Once we were sure we'd go so far,
Joined like a single blazing star!
Goes to show...
Here we are...

Three women stuck at a crossroads,
At a loss to reconnect...
You would think them a mess of contradictions,
And for once you'd be correct

It's apparent that none of us made the grade
But at least not in the way we planned
But what has happened to our love
Is harder still to understand

Years race, lives change,
Makes sense to me...
Why the hell should it feel so strange?
All relationships rearranged!
And the fact is, some friends won't fade
Some... You don't see.

Guess you just call a spade a spade,
Make your peace with the choices made,
Swallow hard at the price you've paid...

And friendship...
Isn't what it used to be.
