Lyrics[]
Troy and Gabriella:
Sorry I'm late!
Chad:
Not good enough, captain!
Taylor:
Not good enough, Gabriella!
Everyone:
Get ya head in the game!
Chad:
There's a choice that you have to make.
Taylor:
And it's pretty plain to see.
Zeke:
You're either out or in
Martha:
You either lose or win
Everyone:
Are you gonna turn your back on history
Taylor:
On the legend that you're apart of
Chad:
On the job that you were born to do
Everyone:
Don't let us down
You gotta come through,
'Cause we're counting on counting on
Counting on you
Everyone:
I don't think so
Chad & Jocks:
Check out the champions who played before
Hail the hero that you could be
Brainiacs:
And put away that dream
Cause there's no "I" in team
And the sacrifice is worth it
We all agree
Jocks:
You just have to keep your focus
Brainiacs:
And forget about you-know-who
Everyone:
Don't let us down
You've gotta come through
'Cause we're counting on you
Jocks:
You're next in line
You're born of the chain
And now that we can make it
Don't break it
Martha:
You're the heir apparent
Taylor:
That's what everyone says
Brainiacs:
Frida Khalo
Indira Ghandi
Rosa Parks
Amelia Earhart
To Gabriella Montez
Gabriella Montez
Gabriella Montez
(Jocks: Bolton Bolton Bolton Bolton Bolton)
Everyone:
Now the pressure is way up high
Which way are you gonna go
You gonna sing a song
Or are you gonna be strong
Trade your fantasies in for the thing you know
The destiny you've been handed
The only thing that you can do
Don't let us down
You gotta come through
'Cause we're counting on you
Now we're counting on you
We're counting on you
So don't let us down
We gotta come through
We're counting on
Counting on
Counting on
Counting on
Gabriella and Troy:
Aarrrgghh!
