36-Run Joey Run
As sung by Rachel Berry, Noah 'Puck' Puckerman, Finn Hudson, and Jesse St. James with Brittany S. Pierce and Santana Lopez (Originally by David Geddes)
Season 1 Episode 17: Bad Reputation
Fun Facts:
1)In the episode Prom Queen, Sue Sylvester calls this the worst number New Directions ever did.
2)Ironically, when they are tasked to provide entertainment for the prom, this is the first number Rachel suggests.
3)Sue thinks Will should "apologize to America" for this cover.
4)The song, and the drama that it caused was also mentioned in Laryngitis. This makes it one of the few songs talked about in another episode, after it has been performed.
5)Rachel's past (Puck), present (Jesse) and future (Finn) lovers are all the male leads.
6)Rachel was currently dating Jesse, but he ironically got the least important screen time (Puck sang the most and Finn held her in the death scene).
7)The order of which guy sings the male lead part is in the order of which guy she dated.
8)The other members of New Directions may dislike the memory of this song, as they appear unhappy when Rachel suggests it in Prom Queen.
9)Cory Monteith stated in an interview that the blood on his hands was actually ketchup.
Lyrics:
Brittany and Santana:
Aaaaaaah Aaaaaaaaaah
Rachel (with Santana and Brittany harmonizing):
Daddy, please don't
It wasn't his fault
He means so much to me
Daddy please don't
We're gonna get married
Rachel:
Just you wait and see
Puck:
Every night, the same old dream, I hate to close my eyes
I can't erase the memory,
The sound of Julie's cry
She called me up, late that night
She said, "Joe, don't come over",
My Dad and I just had a fight,
And he stormed out the door.
I've never seen him act this way,
My God, he's goin crazy
Puck (with Santana and Brittany harmonizing):
He said he's gonna make you pay
For what we've done, he's got a gun
Puck with Santana and Brittany:
So run, Joey run, Joey run!
Rachel (with Santana and Brittany harmonizing):
Daddy, please don't
It wasn't his fault
He means so much to me
Daddy, please don't
We're gonna get married
Rachel:
Just you wait and see
Jesse:
Got in my car, drove like mad
'Til I reached Julie's place,
She ran to me, with tear-filled eyes
And bruises on her face
All at once I saw him there,
Sneakin' up behind me (Rachel: Watch out!)
Then Julie yelled, "He's got a gun!"
Finn:
And she stepped in front of me
Then, suddenly, a shot rang out,
And I saw Julie falling
Finn (with Santana and Brittany harmonizing):
I ran to her; I held her close
When I looked down, my hands were red!
Finn:
And here's the last words Julie said:
Rachel:
Daddy, please don't
It wasn't his fault
He means so much to me
Daddy, please don't
We're gonna get married.....
Brittany and Santana:
Aaaaaaah Aaaaaaaaaah
Jesse with Santana and Brittany:
Run, Joey, run, Joey, run,
Finn with Santana and Brittany:
Joey, run,
Puck with Santana and Brittany:
Joey, run,
Puck, Jesse and Finn (with Santana and Brittany harmonizing):
Joey, run, Joey, run.....!
