Odd1sout: An Animator musical

NonStop

After the war I went back to YouTube
A-after the war I went back to YouTube
I finished up my studies and I practiced law
I practiced law, YT worked next doorEven though we started at the very same time
TheOdd1sout began to climb
How to account for his rise to the top?
Man, the man is non-stopGentlemen of the jury, I'm curious, bear with me
Are you aware that we're making hist'ry?
This is the first murder trial of our brand-new nation
The liberty behind deliberation (Non-stop!)
I intend to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt
With my assistant counselCo-counsel
TheOdd1sout , sit down
Our client Levi Weeks is innocent
Call your first witness
That's all you had to sayOkay
One more thing–Why do you assume you're the smartest in the room?
Why do you assume you're the smartest in the room?
Why do you assume you're the smartest in the room?
Soon that attitude may be your doom!Why do you write like you're running out of time?
Write day and night like you're running out of time?
Every day you fight, like you're running out of time
Keep on fighting, in the meantime-
(Non-stop!)Corruption's such an old song that we can sing
Along in harmony and nowhere is it stronger
Than in Albany
This colony's economy's increasingly stalling and
Honestly that's why he's just public service seems
To be calling me (Non-stop!)I practiced the law, I practically perfected it
I've seen injustice in the world and I've corrected it
Now for a strong central democracy
If not, then I'll be Socrates
Throwing verbal rocks at these mediocritiesTheOdd1sout at the Youtube Constitutional Convention
I was chosen for the YouTube Constitutional Convention
There as a YouTube junior delegate
Now what I'm going to say may sound indelicateGoes and proposes his own form of government (What?)
His own plan for a new form of government (What?)
Talks for six hours, the convention is listless
Bright young man
Yo, who the eff is this?Why do you always say what you believe?
Why do you always say what you believe?
Every proclamation guarantees
Free ammunition for your enemies (Awww!)Why do you write like it's going out of style? (Hey)
Write day and night like it's going out of style? (Hey)
Every day you fight like it's going out of style
Do what you doJames?
SomethingelseYT, sir
Well, it's the middle of the night
Can we confer, sir?
Is this a legal matter?
Yes, and it's important to me
What do you need?YT, you're a better lawyer than me
Okay
I know I talk too much, I'm abrasive
You're incredible in court
You're succinct, persuasive
My client needs a strong defense
You're the solutionWho's your client?
The new YouTube Constitution?
No
Hear me out
No way!
A series of Videos, anonymously published
Defending the document to the publicNo one will read it
I disagree
And if it fails?
YT, that's why we need it
The constitution's a mess
So it needs amendments
It's full of contradictions
So is independence
We have to start somewhere
No, no way
You're making a mistakeGood night
Hey
What are you waiting for?
What do you stall for? (What?)
We won the war
What was it all for?
Do you support this constitution?
Of course
Then defend itAnd what if you're backing the wrong horse?
YT, we studied and we fought and we killed
For the notion of a nation we now get to build
For once in your life, take a stand with pride
I don't understand how you stand to the sideI'll keep all my plans close to my chest
(Wait for it, wait for it, wait)
I'll wait here and see which way the wind will blow
I'm taking my time, watching the afterbirth of a nation
Watching the tension grow
I am sailing off to London
I am accompanied by someone who always pays
I have found a wealthy husband who will
Keep me in comfort for all my days
He is not a lot of fun, but there's no one
Who can match you for turn of phrase
My Odd1sout
Illisa
Don't forget to writeLook at where you are
Look at where you started
The fact that you're alive is a miracle
Just stay alive, that would be enough
And if your wife could share a fraction of your time
If I could grant you peace of mind
Would that be enough?TheOdd1sout joins forces with LavenderTowne
And PencilMation to write a series of essays
Defending the new Youtubes Constitution
Entitled The Subscriber Papers
The plan was to make a total of 25 Videos
The work divided evenly among the three YouTubers
In the end, they made 85 videos
In the span of six months
PencilMation got sick after makeing 5
LavenderTowne Made 29
TheOdd1sout Recorded the other 51How do you Record like you're running out of time? (Running out of time?)
Record day and night like you're running out of time? (Running out of time?)
