As everyone went inside to work, Jim grabbed a broom and began to sweep.
Jim: I look around here and I want to cry
Rizzo: Me too
Cherry: I feel like the world is passing me by
Gonzo: It is
Peach: And I just can't help but wonder: Am I doomed to wash and dry, and is it a curse I'm under to do it til I die?
Gonzo: Well, I hope not
Rizzo: Yeah
Jim: When I could be an explorer
Gonzo: Sure you could
Jim: Sailing off to distant lands
Rizzo: Not so fast
Cherry: Instead of spending every afternoon just getting dish pan hands
the future looks nowhere that I want to be
All: There's gotta be something better, something better
There's just gotta be something better than this for me
Gonzo: If it's weird and wild, let's go find it! HAHAHAHA!
The crazier the better is what I say
Rizzo: Yeah that's true
To tell the truth
I wouldn't really mind it
Peach: Mind what?
Boys: Let danger call my name
Rizzo: If it does I'm gonna hide
Cherry: I'll put my courage to the test
Gonzo: And I'll be by your side
Rizzo: He'll be by your side
Both: Something more than this
Peach: I know there's so much out there
Peach, Gonzo, & Rizzo: To see
Jim: And I know this life I'm living can't be my destiny
Cherry, Jim & Peach: There's gotta be something better
Something better
There's gotta be something better than this for me
Gonzo: And me
Rizzo: Hey, what about me?
All: There's gotta be something better than this for you and me
"ENOUGH OF ALL THIS SINGING!" Billy Bones' voice bellowed. "I NEED RUM!" He drawed out his sword and broke a glass with candle light. "Alright, alright. Just a small one," He told Jim.
"DON'T BE GIVING HIM ANY MORE RUM!" Mrs. Bulvridge shouted.
"How does she bloody do that?" Billy Bones asked as he looked at Peach.
