Lyrics by Maddie Grills. Performed by Maddie, Victoria, Joey, Brooke, and Sally.

Kelsi:
Sharpay, do you yield?

Ryan?:
She’s covered in nachos!
Yes, she yields!

Gabriella:
I’m satisfied

Kelsi::
Hey, we gotta get outta here!

Troy:
Go! You won

COMPANY:
Here comes Ms. Darbus!

Chad:
This should be fun

Darb:
What is the meaning of this? Ryan, please, get a towel for your si-ister 

Ryan:
Yes, ma’am

Sharpay:
Ms. D, Gabby dumped her whole lunch on me
On purpose, see, the whole team did this to me
To ruin Twinkle Town

Ryan:
That’s right!

Coach Dad:
Troy Bolton!

Troy:
Dad!

Coach:
Meet me inside

COMPANY:
Meet him inside! Meet him inside!
Meet him inside, meet him, meet him inside!

Dad:
Son—

Troy:
Listen, dad-

dad:
This sport is hard enough
Without your absence

Troy:
I’ll practice now. Don’t worry dad

Coach:
You missed practice, singing and dancing? You let your team down

Troy:
I’m really sorry dad, but I can’t bail on Gabriella
We made a commitment


Dad:
*Scoffs* ugh

Troy:
What does that mean?

Dad:
Watch your tone
I don’t like that girl showing up, suddenly, you’re no-show


Troy (OVERLAPPING):
Gabriella Montez
That is her name and she’s very
Nice 

She’s just a girl, dad, she’s not scary

Dad:
Well, you’re not just a guy. You’re the team leader
The team’s asking why
‘Cause, what you do

Troy:
No

Dad:
What you do affects the team and the whole school, they look to you to lead,
You can sing about this later  — after the game
   
This game’s important, we need you to win

Troy:
Lots of things are important

Dad:
You’re the playmaker, son, not a singer

Troy, yelling:
Did you ever think maybe I could be both?

……….


dad:
Get to class, Bolton
That’s an order from your coach

troy:
Dad-

dad:
I’ll see you at home

Meet Me Inside

Dear Coach Bolton (Dear Theodosia)

Non-Stop

[COMPANY]
Summer… su-su-summer
Su-su-summer… 


[ZEKE] 
Summer 2007.
How does an athlete, baller
Theater kid, unemployed cishet 

Pick up a job for all his friends? Does he

know he won’t have time for Gabriella til the sun sets?

Have it all, lose it all

You ready for more yet?

LIfeguard, waitress. I’ll be with the head chef.

Ev’ry Wild cat gets a job. We will represent! 

Not so fast. Someone came along to assist him

All of this because a girl wants to sing with him.

He doesn’t know it yet, he hasn’t heard the news

the Evans family owns the place, who fuckin’ knew?

And who’s the person we all have to thank?

Turns out we owe it to Sharpay. Sharpay!

[COMPANY]
Sharpay evans is coming home!
Sharpay evans is coming home!
Sharpay evans is coming home!
Sharpay Evans is coming home!

Sharpay evans is coming home, girl, she’s
Been off in high school for so long!

Aaa-ooo!
Aaa-ooo!


[SHARPAY]

The school has followed Troy to revolution,
There is no more status quo

But the curtain’s up
And I still sing.


[ENSEMBLE]
Aaa-ooo!

[SHARPY]
I helped Gabriella to perform now

I’m movin’ on to better things!

I gotta be at Lava Springs.’

Now my staycation begins…


[ENSEMBLE]
Aaa-ooo!

[SHARPAY]
I want fabulous!

Fabulous!

With my girls, gonna sit at the pool
And maybe take a dip

Out with the old and in with the new

No time for clouds when the sky’s so blue

I’ve got fashion, parties, bling, fabulous everything.


[ENSEMBLE]
Aaa-ooo!

[SHARPAY]

There’s an unread text from Fulton

Haven’t even put my bags down yet

Ryan, be a dear brother, check my phone for me.

It says my parents are throwing a talent show
And that I’m gonna be the star of the stage.

(RYAN)
Slay!

(SHARPAY)
And my songs are already approved...

I just got home and now I’m headed up to rehearse!


[ENSEMBLE]
Headin’ to rehearse!!
Headin’ to rehearse!!

[SHARPAY & ENSEMBLE]
Someone get me an iced tea

And fetch my towel from Turkey (towel from Turkey)

Ready to face 
This summer, 
The whole world according to me! (according to me)

But who’s waitin’ for me when I step in the place?

My man, Mr. Fulton, red in the face

He grabs my arm and
I respond
“What’s goin’ on?”

(Aaa-ooo!)

[FULTON]

Sharpay, we were understaffed for summer, and it almost took a toll.
Troy Bolton got us out of the mess we were in.


[ENSEMBLE]
Aaa-ooo!

[Sharpay]
The wildcats in the kitchen, there is no doubt
They will take over my show!

Star Dazzle is for me, alone. 
Ryan! Where have you been?

[RYAN]
Uh...yoga


[ENSEMBLE]
Aaa-ooo!

[SHARPAY]
We have to win

[Ryan & ENSEMBLE]
And be fabulous!
Fa? Fa? Fabulous?
Fabulous!
I’ve come home to this?

[SHARPAY]
How can I relax with Wildcats in the mix? 
Wildcats, in the mix

[TROY]
I have my first work shift today,

WILDCATS: 
Wildcats!

TROY:
I’ll sneak off to see Gabriella on my break!

[CHAD]
I’m already on my way (On my way)
To picking up some tips. (pick up some tips!)
Ahhh ah!

[FULTON]
Miss Evans, welcome home


[CHAD]
MISS Evans??? Are we really doing this?


[FULTON AND ENSEMBLE]
Miss Evans, welcome home


[COMPANY]
Miss Evans, welcome home
Girl, you’ve been off at high school for so long!

[SHARPAY]
Give me fabulous!


Fabulous (What'd I Miss)

[ZEKE]
Ladies and gentlemen, we coulda been working anywhere in the world this summer, but we’re here in the Lava Springs kitchen. Are you ready for a staff meeting???

The issue on the table: Do we want to spend our summer serving the Evans family? Chad Danforth, you have the floor, bro

[CHAD]
Ball, summer fun, hangin’ with the wildcats
We thought we would be chillin, now we’re wearing chef hats
Don’t get me wrong, I know we needed the money
But this job is so whack, it’s not even funny

[Jason]
Oww

[CHAD]
But what Troy didn’t get
This job would have us serving Sharpay in hairnets
And we don’t even have benefits
Instead of having fun, we’ll be picking up shifts

[TROY]
Come on, Chad.

[CHAD]
Oh don’t forget, ‘miss evans’
If she thinks we’ll call her that
She’ll live to regret it
Uh! We’re your classmates, I’m afraid
Don’t call me for a refill of your pink lemonade
At East High, we are boots on the ground
We’re all great. She just wants to throw her money around
This summer work plan is getting way out of hand
And it’s too many damn hours for any of us to stand
Stand with me, we are THE wildcats team
And pray to Coach we come out of this summer in one piece
Look, when she tried to come for our boy, we got annoyed
Imagine what gon’ happen when we’re here to exploit

[ZEKE]
Thank you, Chad. Troy  Bolton, your response

[TROY]
Chad. That was a real nice explanation
Welcome to employment, it requires cooperation
I know this seems bad, —and looks bleak but
We still have the ingredients to Make this summer sweet
If we collect paychecks, stay out of debt
Our future stays sunny and we save a little money. 
Maybe if we’re lucky, we can get tickets to the knicks!
Take the girls to the mall. Hit the pool for a dip
We’re a champion team, guaranteed!
We’ve faced tougher problems than this, best believe 
“We are boots on the ground. We’re all great”
Yeah! We got this!
Don’t you want that money in your pocket?
And another thing, Mr. Head in the Game
Where do you think your baller idols were before fame?
You think this is my first choice?
To spend my summer stressed
But I think we can find a way to make it the best!
Chad Danforth, why d’you have to be so negative?
Sensitive—you don’t need to be so argumentative
Everybody, we’ll get through this, let’s not be derogative
Let’s keep up the good work, don’t stop clockin’ in
We can still save this summer, I have no doubt
If we all come together
We Can work this out

[FULTON]
Excuse me? Bolton, Danforth, come with me! Ms. Montez, get back to work! I hope no guests have drowned in your absence. Bolton!

[TROY]
Sir!

[FULTON]
A word

[CHAD]
We are on the clock

[TROY/CHAD]
We are on the clock

[trad]
Aha-ha-ha ha!

[TROY/CHAD]
We gotta go and wait some tables ‘cause we are on the clock

[TROY]
The boys are back, wearing uniform slacks and it’s time to attack

[CHAD]
And it’s time to attack

[FULTON]
Can you young men just shut up for a sec?
I know you wildcats are birds of a feather
But I have a new assignment for you two
You boys will be caddies for a golf rendez-vous

[CHAD]
Is our pay the same?

[FULTON]
No, you get a small raise. 

[TROY/CHAD]
Alright man!

[FULTON]
You start in an hour

[CHAD]
This will surely be a breeze, we’re seasoned ballers

[FULTON]
Balling was easy, young man. Caddying’s harder

[TROY]
If you say so, sir.

[FULTON]
You’ll be helping out the Evans’s
This could be your chance to make a good impression
Be professional


[CHAD]
Why should I be seeking the Evans’s approval?

[FULTON]
If you don’t, I may call for your removal

[TROY]
Sir—

[FULTON]
Figure it out, Mr. Bolton. 

[CHAD]
I fuckin hate Mr. Fulton

Kitchen Battle #1 (Cabinet Battle #1)

GABRIELLA & KELSI
One two three four five six seven eight nine!
TROY
Hey what’s up, Dad?
At work weird things are happening to me like
Today I played golf with Sharpay
And also her whole family, you know
Her dad’s a big name at, U of A
They want to get to know me, and take me out to dinner
Because I ball, and I golf, and I also sing
They’re very nice people, but it’s still a little strange
I guess if I talk to them, they might give me a chance to play
TROY & DAD
With the team at U of A
It’d be nice to play at U of A
TROY
Just wanna hangout with the guys
Then I get an invitation
Another one from Sharpay…
GAB
Take a break
TROY
I am on my way
GAB
There’s something we all need to show you
And it cannot wait
TROY
I’ll be there in just a minute, hang on bae
GAB
Troy
TROY
Okay, okay
GAB
Spend some time with the team today
Kelsi’s got a new song to play
She’s been writing it all day
Kelsi, take it away
KELSI
Hey Troy, look
My name is Kelsi
I’m a composer
I wrote this song just
To show ya
And I
Think it’d be fine
If you and Gabriella
Would give it a try
TROY
What!
KELSI
I hear that there’s
A talent show that’s comin’ up

TROY
Uh-huh!

KELSI
And wouldn’t it be fun to show Sharpay up?

TROY
Okay!

KELSI
It’d also be cute if the whole team sang
We can show this club our game! 	 

TROY
Brava!

GAB
Take a break

TROY
Hey, that song is pretty great
GAB
We’ve been working so hard, let’s make time 
For a summer date
TROY
Gabriella, I might have to miss our date=
GAB
It’s just dinner with Sharpay’s father
There’s a pool I know…
TROY
I know
GAB
It’s actually where I work
TROY
I’d love to go
GAB
You and I can swim when the night gets dark…
TROY
I will try to get away
SHARPAY
My Troy-est Bolton
You must come now to dinner
Sit down with me and Daddy
We’ll have so much fun, you’ll see
But before we get int there
I feel I must remind you
Of how important this opportunity could be
And now that we’re here i’ll mention that you also sing
I know those college people like when you do everything
They want to hear you. Will you sing with me?
If not now, will you, please, another day?
You say
TROY & SHARPAY
“Sure, yeah, I’ll sing with you.”
Sharpay
And you can’t just break that promise. You said
TROY AND Sharpay
“Sure, yeah. … I’ll sing with you”
SHARPAY
Anyway, all this to say
I hear there’s a closed practice
With the team at U of A
My dad could get you in there
If you sing with me, but hey
I know you’re very busy
I know technically you’re working
But it could help with college, you could meet and play
TROY & SHARPAY
With the team at U of A
It’d be nice to get into U of A
GAB
Troy, get over here. It’s time for our rehearsal today! Kelsi!
KELSI
Gabriella!
WILDCATS
And the wildcats!
GAB
Troy
TROY:
Hey
KELSI

TROY
Kelsi, tell Gabby, I think if we don’t practice we’ll win anyway
GAB
…you’re not joining us? Wait
TROY
I’m afraid I cannot rehearse today
GAB
Troy, you promised you’d stay
KELSI

The Room Where It Happens

[TROY]
Gabriella!
Guess what just happened!
Fulton just told me I’m being promoted to kids golf instructor!
The Evans even got me shoes as a present!

[GAB]
Sharpay’s buying you clothes?

[TROY]
Chad’s gonna find out any minute

[GAB]
I’m sure he already knows

[TROY]
Let’s go out!
On the town!
With my new dope salary from golfing.

[GAB]
golfing

[CHAD]
What’s all this?

[TROY]
Chad?

[CHAD]
Since when are you a big shot golf man?

[TROY]
Since the Evans’ fam saw me putt putt again!

[CHAD]
We were both playing golf that day

[TROY]
I guess they liked my technique
What can I say?

[Chad]
What about me?

[TROY]
Chad, you know I think you’re great
You’re always the guy stepping up to the plate
But Fulton–

[CHAD]
Wait

[TROY]
—just saw my potential
The opportunities could be exponential

[CHAD]
Wow, I really thought you were my best bro

[TROY]
I thought you’d be happy for me though

[CHAD]
So you’d do this because you think you’re better than me?

[TROY]
I’m not better than you or anyone on the team
I’m just doing what is asked of me

[CHAD]
Hm…. I guess we’ll see

Troy Promoted (Schuyler Defeated)

[ZEKE]
The issue on the table: Troy was invited to practice with the Redhawks 
And we were supposed to scrimmage after work the same day. How will Chad react? 
Remember, Troy’s already on thin ice with the wildcats and gabriella
Should Troy take this shot or choose his team?
Chad Danforth, you have the floor, bro

[CHAD]
When we were losing a game, when we were desperate
We stuck together, give us some credit
We needed a plan of attack with you at the lead
And who had your back?

[Zeke, Jason]
The team!

[CHAD]
In return, we didn’t ask for praise
And now you turn around and accept a raise
And sit with the Evans while we serve you lunch and dinner
I don’t care how you want your roast pork braised!
Stay with your brothers as we sing in Star Dazzle
I know it’s strange coming from me, you might be baffled
But I’d rather do it as a team
You’re playing right into Sharpay’s latest scheme

What do you know of loyalty?
With your shoes, new money, and dressed in a polo tee
Giving little kids high fives
Right before telling them “Now watch this drive”

[ENSEMBLE]
Ooh!!

[CHAD]
Hey, and if ya don’t know, now ya know, bro

[ZEKE]
Thank you, Chad. Troy… Your response

[TROY]
well-

[SHARPAY]
You must be out of your Goddamn mind if you thought
The Evans fam is gonna let Troy Bolton rot
As a waiter in the wings, while he wonders what he wants
Guess you forgot, he’s not throwing away his shot
We got him in with the Red Hawks at their afternoon practice
Why don’t you go ahead and ask him?
“Should we hold you back from all your dreams?”
He’s wasting his time on this pathetic team

[ZEKE]
Enough! Thank you Sharpay

[SHARPAY]
You’re welcome

[TROY]
The last thing I want is another fight

[CHAD]
But bro, you keep ditching Gabriella and me

[JASON]
Hey! Why don’t you invite the Hawks to play with our team?

[TROY]
I think It’s a closed practice…

[CHAD]
Closed practice, my ass!
So high and mighty! While you stab us in the back. You would leave the team behind for a glimmer of clout
Zeke

[ZEKE]
Yeah?

[CHAD]
Let’s see ourselves out

[TAYLOR]
Did you forget Gabriella?

[TROY]
What?

[TAYLOR]
Aren’t you her fella?
You invite her on dates, she gets in trouble
After you show up an hour late

[TROY]
Gabriella understands, she’ll be fine
She’d let me know if I cross a line
I’m just trying to take every opportunity I’ve got
Am I supposed to decline?

[TAYLOR]
I don’t know, Troy

[TROY]
I’m trying to stay employed

[TAYLOR]
By singing with Sharpay?

[TROY]
I don’t think I have a choice

[TAYLOR]
Yeah. Well, someone oughta remind you

[TROY]
What?

[TAYLOR]
You’re nothing without Sharpay behind you

[SHARPAY]
Troy!

[TAYLOR]
Miss Evans is calling

Kitchen Battle #2 (Cabinet Battle #2)

[GABRIELLA:]
It must be nice, it must be nice
To have Sharpay on your side
It must be nice, it must be nice
To have Sharpay on your side

[TAYLOR:]
Ev'ry action has its equal, opposite reactions
Thanks to Sharpay, our team’s been fractured into factions
This summer’s becoming a mess, these rich folks have no compassion
We’re struggling to serve the guests, and Troy’s missing in action
I get no satisfaction witnessing Sharpay’s attraction
The way she simps and schemes and dresses Troy in prep school fashion
Our boys in kitchens, our wildcats, live ration to ration
As Lava Springs patrons spend the day chillaxin’
This bitch is askin' for someone to give her a smack
Somebody gimme some dirt on this fabulous ass so we can at last unmask her
I'll close the curtain on her, someone pull the rope and bop it
While we were all watching, she put Troy Bolton in her pocket

[TAYLOR & GAB:]
It must be nice, it must be nice
To have Sharpay on your side
It must be nice, it must be nice
To have Sharpay on your side

Look back at our Twinkle Towne

[KESLI:]
Which I wrote

[ALL:]
Should we be surprised?
It must be nice, it must be nice
To have Sharpay on your side

[TAYLOR:]
So he gave you a beautiful neck-a-lace

GAB:
Didn’t that mean that he promised to be my number one guy?

[KELSI:]
Look in his eyes!

[TAYLOR:]
See how he lies

[KELSI:]
Now always ditching you and the guys 

[TAYLOR:]
Using Sharpay’s dad’s connections
Building a college career in seconds

[KELSI:]
If we don't stop it Sharpay learns no lesson

[GABRIELLA:]
I thought he was mine :(

[TAYLOR:]
Somebody has to stand up for our gal!

[KELSI:]
Somebody has to boost morale!

[TAYLOR:]
If there's an Evans we want to take down

[TAY & KELSI:]
You can’t just go and remove her crown

[KELSI:]
I write the songs, I have to sit in
Watching her singing and dancing and spinning
If Troy Bolton isn't gon' listen
To us in the thick of it, this is the difference:
Troy is a clown!

[TAY & KELS & GAB:]
Oh!
This summer job isn't employment we chose
Oh!
This summer job’s keeping us all on our toes
Oh!
Let's show this upper-class club who they're up against!
Oh!

[TAY & KELSI:]
East High motherfuckin'

[ALL:]
Wildcats!!

[ALL:]
Oh!

[ALL:]
Let's follow Sharpay and see where she goes

[Ensemble:]
Oh!

[ALL:]
Because every second her audacity grows

[Ensemble:]
Oh!

[ALL:]
If we follow Sharpay and see how she schemes
Roll up your sleeves, look for the keys to Sharpay’s misdeeds 

[ALL:]
It must be nice, it must be nice

[Gab:]
Follow Sharpay and see where she goes

[ALL:]
It must be nice, it must be nice

[WILDCATS:]
We will rescue our bro

[Gab, tay, kelsi:]
We won't be invisible
We won't be denied
Still
It must be nice, it must be nice
To have Sharpay on your side
