This is a musical based off the song parodied in this script

Noah and Joel sitting in desks onstage reading books.

Joel: Done!

Noah: Yeah right, your bookmark is still in the 6th chapter.

Joel: You're just jealous that I'm better. Do you know why?

Music cues in as Joel rises from seat

Joel: (musically) anything you can do I can do better! Everything I do is better than you.

Noah: No it's not

Joel: yes it is

Repeat ending by singing three together

Noah rises from seat

Noah: well anything you can be I can be greater! Sooner or later I'm better than you.

Joel: no your not

Noah: yes I am

Repeated likewise to the first

Joel: I can do division in a single minute

Noah: I can write a story. Yours will always bore me.

Joel: I wrote ten tests in a single day!

Noah: and you got good grades?

Joel: yep

Noah: I got them in spades

    Because everything you have done I've done it better! It's no use fighting when you know it's true.

Joel: no it's not

Noah: yes it is

Repeat disagreement

Joel: well I can sing better!

Singing fight until music is cut of by Megan, who is reading beside them in a desk

Megan: SHUT UP!

Joel and Noah pause, look at each other, then approach Megan. Music starts once more

Both: anything she can do we do it better! What ever we do it's better than her

Joel: that is true

Noah: oh, quite true

Agreement like the disagreement earlier

Both: and anything she could be we could be greater! Simple as that she's no match, for sure

Joel: yes we are

Noah: yes we are

Agreement the same as before except last line of agreement and music is cut off by Megan

Megan: done! (Slams book and walks away)

Both boys stare at her leaving

Both:(slowly) whatever she does, she does it better. Quickly. Consistently...

Boys quickly turn and look at each other with an intense glare.

Both: (fast) Better than you!
