Scene 7 – Business Woes (Part 2)

Scene 7 – Business Woes  (Part 2)

Set: office (continued)

Scene: Tommy reached for his coat and prepares to leave to meet Allison.

The management team exits the office.

Mgmt team member 2 remains behind sensitive to what’s going on and approaches Tommy.

Tommy looks up “I used to think that life balances out over the long haul you know, the good and the bad, until I saw Les Mis”.   

Mgmt team member 1 sticks his head back in Tommy’s office and says “Did I remind you today that you have the worst job in the company?”

Tommy rushes out.

Management team member starts the song various co workers pass through the doorway. During the first and second verse they assemble around the coffee machine filling their mugs. At the second chorus they all sing backup hoisting their coffee cups like beer steins in a pub. At the end of the song as the chorus fades they put down their cups and quietly exit the office.

Cue the music

Song-Live to fight another day

 

Well we run for the hills and we swim for the shores

Just to get away

And we climb to the treetops and ride out the tempest

I’m proud to say

And no more shall we fear what comes our way

We live to fight another day

When we’re faced with the darkness we look to the stars

Just to guide our way

And we navigate waters we just won’t allow ourselves

Led astray

And no more shall we fear what comes our way

We live to fight another day                     We live to fight another day

And when we’re together I’m happy

And when we stand tall I’m proud

We’ll weather the storms together

We will sing our songs out loud!

Well we’re bloodied and bruised but we land on our feet

And we face the day

And we take on all comers our clothing is tattered

Our nerves are frayed

And no more shall we fear what comes our way

We live to fight another day               We live to fight another day

Oooh Rah   oooh rah  aye
