A/N: After I saw this, whenever I hear High Hopes, I close my eyes and I see it.
Tonight was Jade Mountain Academy singing night. I hope Tsunami doesn't sing. I also hope she didn't hear me say that.
Tsunami: WHAT?! WHO SAID THAT?!
Starflight: notme
So, I was in my sleeping cave, with the gang.
"I think I'm going to sing I Kissed a Girl" Said Garnet.
"Of course you will," Grit teased
"I'll keep mine a secret" Honeybee annoucned
"Me too" Grit, Hoarfrost and Shadow said in unision.
"Me three!"
TIME SKIP
"Welcome to Jade Mountain Academy's Singing Night! The one thing a non-animus made that I can enjoy!" Starflight yelled, pretending to recite from a scroll that he was holding upside down, facing towards the audiance, that was titled The Art Of Seduction.
"First up we have Cactus and Grit!" Fatespeaker announced
"Let's get this party started!" Sunny screeched, clearly the best annoucncer
"There lived a certain man in Russia long ago" Grit started
"He was big and strong, in his eyes a flaming glow" Cactus helped
"Most people looked at him with terror and with fear
But to Moscow chicks he was such a lovely dear
He could preach the bible like a preacher" Grit said, rocking the disco
"Full of ecstasy and fire But he also was the kind of teacher
Women would desire" Cactus said, not singing as well as Grit
"Ra ra Rasputin
Lover of the Russian queen
There was a cat that really was gone
Ra ra Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on" They sang in unision
"He ruled the Russian land and never mind the czar
But the cassock he danced really wunderbar
In all affairs of state he was the man to please
But he was real great when he had a girl to squeeze" Cactus said, never rocking this part.
"For the queen he was no wheeler dealer
Though she'd heard the things he'd done
She believed he was a holy healer
Who would heal her son" Grit said, singing much better than Cactus
"Ra ra Rasputin
Lover of the Russian queen
There was a cat that really was gone
Ra ra Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
It was a shame how he carried on"
"But when his drinking and lusting and his hunger
For power became known to more and more people
The demands to do something about this outrageous
Man became louder and louder
This man's just got to go, declared his enemies
But the ladies begged, don't you try to do it, please" Cactus said, actually doing a good job
"No doubt this Rasputin had lots of hidden charms
Though he was a brute they just fell into his arms
Then one night some men of higher standing
Set a trap, they're not to blame
Come to visit us they kept demanding
And he really came" Grit sang, doing just as well as Cactus
"Ra ra Rasputin
Lover of the Russian queen
They put some poison into his wine
Ra ra Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
He drank it all and said, I feel fine" Cactus sang
"Ra ra Rasputin
Lover of the Russian queen
They didn't quit, they wanted his head
Ra ra Rasputin
Russia's greatest love machine
And so they shot him 'til he was dead" Grit sang
"Oh, those Russians" They finished together. The academy broke into cheers as Grit and Cactus took a bow.
"Good job, Grit and Cactus! Next up we have, Garnet!" Fatespeaker announced
"Why did you sing that?" asked Garnet
"Because of our aunt, Burn. She might have not been a lover like that, but she certainly was a strong fighter." Grit answered.
"Or maybe Morrowseer." Cactus joked
"Let's start this thing!" Garnet yelled
"This was never the way I planned
Not my intention
I got so brave, drink in hand
Lost my discretion
It's not what, I'm used to
Just wanna try you on
I'm curious for you
Caught my attentionI kissed a girl and I liked it
The taste of her cherry chap stick
I kissed a girl just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don't mind it
It felt so wrong
It felt so right
Don't mean I'm in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I liked it
I liked itNo, I don't even know your name
It doesn't matter
You're my experimental game
Just human nature
It's not what, good girls do
Not how they should behave
My head gets so confused
Hard to obeyI kissed a girl and I liked it
The taste of her cherry chap stick
I kissed a girl just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don't mind it
It felt so wrong
It felt so right
Don't mean I'm in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I liked it
I liked itUs girls we are so magical
Soft skin, red lips, so kissable
Hard to resist so touchable
Too good to deny it
Ain't no big deal, it's innocentI kissed a girl and I liked it
The taste of her cherry chap stick
I kissed a girl just to try it
I hope my boyfriend don't mind it
It felt so wrong
It felt so right
Don't mean I'm in love tonight
I kissed a girl and I liked it
I liked it" Garnets singing wasn't bad, nor the best. Honeybee noticed Guava and Grit pulling something up, then realized that they had made a sign that said GO GET'M LESBIAN!
A female nightwing sang Don't Threaten Me With a Good Time
Clay sang It's Raining Tacos
Fatespeaker sang Cool Kids. Everyone checked their phones (jk)
And Tsunami didn't sing anything (Thank the moons)
Several more songs were sung, and it was late in the evening when Honeybee finally got on stage with Guava, Shadow and Hoarfrost
"Had to have high, high hopes for a living" Honeybee started
"Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing" Shadow sang
"Didn't have a dime but I always had a vision" Guava took her turn
"Always had high, high hopes" Hoarfrost sang, probably trying to sound dignified
"Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Didn't know how but I always had a feeling
I was gonna be that one in a million
Always had high, high hopesMama said
Fulfill the prophecy
Be something greater
Go make a legacy
Manifest destiny
Back in the days
We wanted everything, wanted everything" Honeybee sang, taking up her part
"Mama said
Burn your biographies
Rewrite your history
Light up your wildest dreams
Museum victories, everyday
We wanted everything, wanted everythingMama said don't give up, it's a little complicated
All tied up, no more love and I'd hate to see you waitingHad to have high, high hopes for a living
Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing
Didn't have a dime but I always had a vision
Always had high, high hopes
Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Didn't know how but I always had a feeling
I was gonna be that one in a million
Always had high, high hopesMama said" Shadow sang, giving the que for Guava to start her part
"It's uphill for oddities
The stranger crusaders
Ain't ever wannabes
The weird and the novelties
Don't ever change
We wanted everything, wanted everythingStay up on that rise
Stay up on that rise and never come down
Stay up on that rise
Stay up on that rise and never come downMama said don't give up, it's a little complicated
All tied up, no more love and I'd hate to see you waiting
They say it's all been done but they haven't seen the best of me
So I got one more run and it's gonna be a sight to seeHad to have high, high hopes for a living
Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing" Guava sang
"Didn't have a dime but I always had a vision
Always had high, high hopesHad to have high, high hopes for a living
Didn't know how but I always had a feeling
I was gonna be that one in a million
Always had high, high hopes
Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Shooting for the stars when I couldn't make a killing
Didn't have a dime but I always had a vision
Always had high, high hopes
Had to have high, high hopes for a living
Didn't know how but I always had a feeling
I was gonna be that one in a million" Hoarfrost sang, clearly felling proud
"Always had high, high hopes" The crowd finished
"There's one more song tonight, and it's a acapella group?! What's acapella?!" Starflight asked, still holding the Seduction scroll.
"NOWAY! STARFLIGHT DOESN'T KNOW SOMETHING?! NOWAY!" Tsunami said sarcasticly. I think it was sarcasism. The acapella group walked on stage, and River was in it.
The acapella group each did a part in the song, but whenever River wasn't doing much, the song sucked.
