Getting Ready (Extended)
[ARCHIE]
Only got one shot
Better get it right
I'm getting ready
Gotta look real hot
'Cause it's Friday night
I'm getting ready
I'm getting ready today
I'm getting ready to say
"I'm not that weird geek you think I must be"
I'm getting ready to move
I'm getting ready to prove
Kendra just needs a love god like me
[EVAN]
Big night tonight
Then everyone comes to my Bar Mitzvah
[ARCHIE]
Gotta wear a tie
[EVAN]
If this goes right
Then everyone comes to my Bar Mitzvah
[ARCHIE]
Gotta zip my fly
[EVAN]
If we can get in and Brett's rеady for action
But Kendra's distracted by Archie's distraction
So thеy never kiss, Lucy gets satisfaction
And everyone comes to my party, so
[ARCHIE & EVAN]
I'm getting ready to go
I'm getting ready and knowing
I may only get this one chance
[BRETT]
Check-itty out, check-itty out
Check-itty out, check-itty out
According to this site
The perfect moment for the making out to begin
According to this site
Is twenty-nine minutes and eighteen seconds in
'Cause then we hit this scene
[BOYS, spoken]
Oh, wow
[BRETT]
Where this girl named Heidi
And this weird little dude named Kurt
Are locked in a cabin
Hiding out from the stabbin'
And then Heidi starts taking off her shirt
[BRETT & BOYS]
And it's magic time
It's totally magic time
[BRETT]
'Cause when the actors on the screen get sweaty
It's when my two lips had better get ready
[BRETT & BOYS]
Because it's magic time
It's finally magic time
[KENDRA]
First I lie to my mom
Next I sneak into an R-rated movie
[LUCY, spoken]
It's a very cool date
[KENDRA]
And by the end of the night
I'm gonna kiss the boy I like
[LUCY, spoken]
Mmm hmm
[KENDRA]
I mean, how much excitement can one heart take?
It's like every nerve in my skin's awake
The things that I said I did were all so fake before
'Cause I'm a rebel
I'm not that sweet little girl you know
[LUCY, spoken]
No?
[KENDRA, spoken]
No!
(sung)
'Cause I'm a rebel
Get out of my way 'cause here I go
[LUCY, spoken]
Go, go
[BRETT]
In twenty-nine minutes when the mood is right
[KENDRA]
Just look out world, 'cause it's magic time tonight
[PATRICE]
Someone has to stand up for what's right
Someone has to say, enough!
This stops now
This stops tonight
Tonight
[ARCHIE]
I'm getting ready, it's true
[EVAN & ARCHIE]
I'm getting ready to do
Something that makes them / her
Accept me at last
[ENSEMBLE]
I'm getting ready, all right
Nothing can stop me tonight
I'm getting ready, ready, ready
Now!
