"Chapter Two" A Babysitters Club Song

Feb 07, 2011 16:19

So, I write songs about things, because I'm easily amused and often bored, and I wrote a musical version of all of those oh-so-thrilling chapter twos. No offense is meant by any of this. It's all in good fun. And, seriously, I had so much fun writing this.

Kristy had the great idea that brought us all together
Afternoons in Claudia's room made us Friends Forever
Mallory writes in the notebook, while Jessi stretches her legs
We swap stories and eat junk food, except for Dawn and Stace
Abby tells a joke or two, and maybe hums an Elvis tune
While Mary Anne surveys the room, and asks for a tissue
We spend our weekends with the Newtons, Perkins, and Papadakises
We'll sit for the for the Kids in Miss Coleman's class, like Kristy's Little Sis

As I sit on a hidden Nancy Drew, I think about this club
And what else can I do but describe the people I love
We've got an Asian and a ginger, a black one and a Jew
It's all part of Scholastic's plan to appeal to all of you
We're the Babysitters Club and we're a pretty dibble crew
And anyone else who wants to sit in Stoneybrook is screwed

There's Kristy, she's an athlete, and she's a lesbian
Mary Anne can't wear make up, but she had a boyfriend
Claudia can't spell worth shit, but she has a phone
Stacey can't eat fudge and comes from a broken home
Jessi is a dancer, but more importantly, she's black
Mallory hates boys and gym, but her parents sure like sex
Dawn's a California girl who loves the environment
And no one cares about Abby who has asthma and a twin

As I sit on a hidden Nancy Drew, I think about this club
And what else can I do but describe the people I love
We've got an Asian and a ginger, a black one and a Jew
It's all part of Scholastic's plan to appeal to all of you
We're the Babysitters Club and we're a pretty dibble crew
And anyone else who wants to sit in Stoneybrook is screwed

There's more to Stoneybrook than just the eight of us
I forgot to mention the alternate members of our little club
Shannon is the rich bitch out to pad her resume
And Logan liked Mary Anne and they made a big mistake
What a long strange trip it's been to our Graduation Day
We got stranded on an island and drove 'cross the USA
We solved mysteries, faced Cokie Mason, even went to camp
Armed only with our Kid Kits and the best friends you'll ever have

As I sit on a hidden Nancy Drew, I think about this club
And what else can I do but describe the people I love
We've got an Asian and a ginger, a black one and a Jew
It's all part of Scholastic's plan to appeal to all of you
We're the Babysitters Club and we're a pretty dibble crew
And anyone else who wants to sit in Stoneybrook is screwed

Mods: "snark" was the most accurate tag I could find. There's nothing for videos.
