Hi I'm Jess. Jessica-Rose. I'm an only child. And I'm adopted by a couple.

"Hi." I say shyly as I get into the car. My new mum sat there smiling. Beaming. I sit down in the back of the car while my new dad hoists my case into the boot. I guess it was heavy cause he was heavy. "What have you got in there?!" He asks me.
"Makeup" I say quietly. I then list, in a whisper "my amp and mike too." The radio gets turned up full volume. "Flashlight light your my flashlight...." Pitch perfect. Good song. Next came in my favorite.
(I sing quietly in the back)

(Finders keepers, losers weepers)

Welcome to the end of eras
Ice has melted back to life
Done my time and served my sentence
Dress me up and watch me die
If it feels good, tastes good
It must be mine
Dynasty decapitated
You just might see a ghost tonight

And if you don't know, now you know

I'm taking back the crown
I'm all dressed up and naked
I see what's mine and take it
(Finders keepers, losers weepers)
Oh, yeah
The crown...
So close I can taste it
I see what's mine and take it
(Finders keepers, losers weepers)
Oh, yeah

Sycophants on velvet sofas
Lavish mansions, vintage wine
I am so much more than royal
Snatch your chain and mace your eyes
If it feels good, tastes good
It must be mine
Heroes always get remembered
But you know legends never die

And if you don't know, now you know

I'm taking back the crown
I'm all dressed up and naked
I see what's mine and take it
(Finders keepers, losers weepers)
Oh, yeah
The crown
So close I can taste it
I see what's mine and take it
(Finders keepers, losers weepers)
Oh, yeah

Mortal kings are ruling castles
Welcome to my world of fun
Liars settle into sockets
Flip the switch and watch them run

Oh, yeah, oh
(Finders keepers, losers weepers)
I'm taking back, back, taking back, back
The crown
I'm all dressed up and naked
I see what's mine and take it
(Finders keepers, losers weepers)
Oh, yeah
The crown
So close I can taste it
I see what's mine and take it
(Finders keepers, losers weepers)
Oh, yeah

(Finders keepers, losers weepers)
(Finders keepers, losers weepers)

They applaud me guess I sung really loud. "Thanks." I whisper. Dad gets out a camera. "Hi best friends!" I hadn't seen there faces other than the beaming smile of mums. I giggle "this is gonna sound so fan girlish but I love your videos. Both of you!" I wasn't sure if they were laughing at me or what I said. "We're home!" Mum (wow!) says loudly.
"So as you know we have adopted a little girl who's not that little really!" He looks at me and I nod. He points the camera at me. "Hi I'm JessicaRose" I say! "I'm twelve years old. And can't believe I got adopted my Tanya & Jim! Thanks!"

After I had settled in I unpacked my amp and microphone. Also my DJ booth.
I began spinning some tracks. "What are you doing hunnie?" Asks Tan. As she walks in. I was totally oblivious to her spinning some tracks. I recorded it and started singing. Still not realizing Tan was there. Tanya clapped at the end. I blushed. Grabbing my laptop I put everything together.
"Tanya? Can I borrow a camera?" She runs off and grabs me one and a tripod. I record my video and edit and put the track on. "Tanya! Jim! Can you come here for a second?" They come upstairs "what d'ya think?"
