After Today

[Max]

Max: (singing)
They've been laughing since I can remember,
But they're not gonna laugh anymore!
No more "Maxie the geek"!
No more "Goof of the week" like before!

Girl tearing up test: (singing)
No more algebra tests 'til September!

Boy: (singing)
No more looking at losers like him!

Boy with crib notes on arm: (singing)
No more having to cheat!

Another Boy: [steals Max's lunch] (singing)
No more mystery meat!

Yet Another Boy: [snapping jock strap] (singing)
No more gym!

Yet Another Another Boy: [snapping jock strap] (singing)
No more gym!

Yet Another Boy: [snapping jock strap] (singing)
No more gym!

Yet Another Boy: (shouting)
No more gym!

Girl with credit cards: (singing)
Gonna move to the mall!

Beach Boy: (singing)
Gonna live in the pool!

Max: (singing)
Gonna talk to Roxanne and not feel like a fool!

All: (singing)
'Cause after today I'm gonna be cruising!

Max: (singing)
After today she'll be mine!

All: (singing)
After today my brains'll be snoozing!

Max: (singing)
If I don't faint, I'll be fine!

Twin Girls: (singing)
I've got forty more minutes of Home Economics!

Twin Boys: (singing)
Then down with the textbooks...

Trekkie Boy: (singing)
And up with the comics!

Max: (singing)
Just think of all of the time I've been losing
Finding the right thing to say!

All: (singing)
But things'll be going my way, after today!
[Roxanne passes by Max. Max waves, but Roxanne does not see him.]

Max: (singing)
She looked right through me!
And who could blame her?
I need a new me,
Plus some positive proof
That I'm not just a goof! And...

All: (singing)
After today I'm gonna be cruising!
Two Girls in black: (singing)
No more pep rallies to cut! (spoken) Yech!

All: (singing)
After today my brains'll be snoozing!
School Bus Driver: (singing)
I'm gonna sit on my butt!

Max: (singing)
I've got less than an hour
And when this is ended,
I'll either be famous...

Principal Mazur: (singing)
Or you'll be suspended!

All: (singing)
Just think of all of the time I've been losing
Waiting until I could say:
Gonna be on my own, kiss the parents good-bye!
Gonna party from now 'til the end of July!
Things'll be going my way after today!

[school bell rings]

Max: (singing)
I wish that this was the day after today!
