Shade: The Rusical

In the city of drag queens there's a fine line

between being shady and being a lady.

This is Penny, which will she choose?

I just got off the bus

I don't drink, or eat or cuss

You're new in town

It's time to knuckle down

Start swimming to the top before you drown

Who are you?

We are the pageant queens (oh, fancy)

We're elegant machines

In gowns we strut, we don't need corny smut (what?)

Let's hold back and see which way she leans

Who are you?

We are the comedy queens (oh cute)

Humor always justifies the means

While she's there telling a joke (look!)

I'm right behind you poke (oh!)

So don't listen to them 'cause there just full of beans (literally!)

Who's that?

Wait!

She's the shady queen, horrid queen

No one wants to see her

On her own, all alone no one wants to be her

Listen up pretty pup

She's on her way to six feet underground

Yes, and nothing nice, nothing good ever goes her way so

Miss "off the bus" stick with us

Even Ru would say so

Who?

(Gasp)

Rupaul!

Oh!

Turn around

We are the better queens, the safer queens

The lighter queens, the brighter queens

The wiser queens advisor queens

The ones who you should stick with

Penny, you really wanna be a star?

Yeah I do!

No! Don't do it! don't girl!

She's got testicles! I've seen them!

She's a man with one eye!

There's a hole in your heart

There's place in your soul, apassion so strong it makes your blood boil

All your dreams come alive, all your wishes will grow

If you take a swig of this fish oil

Drink for me

Oh, I'd really like to but I shouldn't I-

Drink for me!

But I do want to be a big, big star

Drink for me!

Don't do it! Don't do it!

Drink for me!

You'll lose it! You'll lose it!

Well I'm gonna be the greatest star

And nothing and no one's gonna keep me down

And you, and you, and all of you

I'll make you love me

Don't do it! Don't do it!

Oh I can't get it open

Here!

Don't do it! Don't do it!

Watch me be your star

All t all shade

Thanks to fish oil, our good little Penny became one bad Penny

But, she got that fame

'Cause I'm the biggest star

And I'm going far, just a miracle in front of you

Oh, and if you don't believe

I will show you, I'll teach you, I'll school, you I'll beat you

And punch you, and crunch you, I'll take you

And make you thank me

When you love me

That's how you do it, back rolls

Did you see what she said to me!?

Back rolls!

Heard it!

Can you believe, can you believe she even said that?

Yes she really did.

Oh yes she really, really went there.

Well I'm not gonna stick around and be a part of her show!

But you have to!

Girl, the paycheck!

Oh, right mhmm

No, I'll never love anyone else like I love myself

Oh no, no, no, no I'll never love anyone else

Ai dios mio! The's going down! Too much fish oil!

Now's our chance!

Watch us rise to the top

'Cause we're the fresh fish on the scene

We're the new girls in town

We're stepping right over this queen

She's been throwing some shade

And now we don't give a damn

Take away her fish oil and there ain't nothing left there, man

Woo!

Center stage another chapter time to turn the page

And finally I'm the star!

No, I'm the star!

No I'm the star!

No girl! (mumbled fighting)

Oh the shade, the shade of it all

Look at yourself shady ladies

You should be ashamed of what you've become

Oh, I never thought that you would do this

So let me remind you of just one thing

Take each other's hands and come together

Cause we are each other's family all 2,603,040 sisters

This is our land and we are the queens

Time to take a stand and come together (we come together)

Cause we are each other's family (we're all family) all 2,603,040 sisters (many queens)

This is our land and we are the queens

So even if you're a pageant queen

Or a comedy queen

Or a fishy queen

A shady queen

Or just a big damn girl

We are a family!

Back rolls!
