Roman's Dream

I just had a really scary dream
Involving monsters, ghouls and the game Yahtzee
But the worst part of that scary dream
I could not be all I was meant to be.
I’m feeling it now, I’m feeling it now, today’s the
day I make myself anew I know the
way to go cause I’m the one they’re looking
for-ward to and I see future success
I just had a really epic dream
Involving scuba, cheetahs and my girlfriend Alli
And the best part of that epic dream
My best friend was right next to me
Roman my man, you’ve got a chance to change our
lives are looking up and we are flying
higher everyday, not a care in the
whole wide world is at our feet and we are
Taking a bite out of our lives, seize the day
and night we fight the fight and become heroes
conquering our enemies, they will not
stand against our destiny, no!
[Guitar Solo]
Roman my man, you’ve got a chance to change
Our lives are looking up and we are flying
higher everyday, not a care in the
whole wide world is at our feet and we are
Taking a chance and making plans to be all
We can be everything in our
Dreams are taking hold and growing we won’t
Waste a day waiting, no, not on
THIS CON-QUEST

He’s a silly boy
With a silly life
Thinking he had a chance
Just look at his face
Just look at his jaw
Just look at his posture
Just look at his hair
Just look at his clothes
Just look at this picture
You’ve got to know you’re nothing special
Coming late without a call
It’s very clear here, Roman
that you have dropped the ball
For this prestigious company we need it all
You son have got to see that
You’re not what we’re looking for
Listen up, open your fool ears
Listen boy this isn’t a game
Your childish ways will not get
You very far in life
I can’t believe you thought that you
Even had a chance
You child have got to see that
You’re not what we’re looking for
You come late and think that you can shine
You thought you were gonna do just fine
I don’t know why you walked through that door
But you aren’t what we are looking for
Just look at your shoes
Just look at your tie
Just look at your resume
Just look at your watch
Just look at your shirt
Just look at your Facebook
Don’t you know your social life will
Always affect your work
We need adults in this place
Not bumbling toddlers now
I don’t believe that you could
Even run your own life
You son have got to see that
You’re not what we’re looking for
You come late and think that you can shine
I think you will sully what is mine
I don’t know why you walked through that door
But you aren’t what we are looking for
You’re a fool and just a silly child
You have nothing that is worth my while
I doubt you will ever find a job
As you leave watch out for the door knob
Just look at yourself
Just look at yourself
Just look at yourself
Just look at yourself
Just look at yourself
Just look at yourself
You’re a silly boy
With a silly life
Thinking you had a chance
You come late and think that you can shine
Run back to the unemployment line
You’re a silly boy
With a silly life
Thinking you had a chance
I doubt you will ever find a job
As you leave watch out for the door knob

Maybe you didn’t get the job
I won’t say you failed, but
Success maybe alluded you
That’s okay
You weren’t cut out for that anyway
You my man
Were made just for cosplay
Cosplay
Clipping, cutting, sewing, molding
Cosplay
Changing form and growing wings
And flying to the top
Knowing there is nothing that can ever make you stop
Cosplay
It is what you love in life
Cosplay
You are the best!
You are the best!
In the world
And it makes you happy and that cannot be so bad.
You can defeat all of your insecurities
Never look back as you charge
Finding your self
in somebody else
It’s just amazing
what you can do with
lumps of old fabric
moldable plastic parts
If you believe
You can achieve
Everything that you could want
Cosplay it’s the answer
It’s the solution
Max and I will guide you
on this adventure
On!
Friend, can’t you see?
We’re here to help you be
Massively successful,
More than you could ever be
At that Blah Company
Follow your dreams and you will see that
You can conquer anything.
Roman can’t you see
This is who you’re meant to be
Cosplay is in your bones
And you’ll never be alone
Cosplay
This must surely make you happy
Cosplay
We want you to know
You run the show
And so do we
Because cosplay is something that you do with her and me
Cosplay
Turning into someone else
Cosplay
Having some fun
with all your friends
Namely us
Cosplay is exactly the thing you’ve been looking for

What The Con's About
02:55
|
|||
Thousands of artists here
Selling plushies, prints, and glassware sets
Batman and superman
Muscle bound heroes showing off their pecs
But you’re not built that way
Your chest has flab and your stomach’s round
But that’s okay
Because we will welcome you anyway
You’re at the Con
You’re at the Con
Fulfilling all your greatest dreams
Cuz at the Con
You can be all you want to be
We won’t break you down
We’ll build you up
We believe that you’re enough
Come as you are
Do what you want
Be a hero, villain, or alien
Pure fun throughout
Can’t live without
Cuz that is what the con’s about
It’s about the things you dream of doing
All the tail you dream of screwing
Shopping, shipping, sweat pools, slipping
Breaking bank and costume ripping
Energy drinks, lots of weird kinks
Business cards with sketchy links
All of the major studios
Plus indie rigs with online shows
We won’t break you down
We’ll build you up
We believe that you’re enough
Come as you are
Do what you want
Be a Jedi, Sith, or Boba Fett
Pure fun throughout
Can’t live without
Cuz that is what the con’s about
Cuz that is what the con’s about
You can wear anything
Or nothing - there’s no difference to us
Be who are and say what you want
Cuz you matter and we don’t mind
What the con’s about
It’s what the con’s about
What the con’s about
That is what the con’s about

My Chance
03:32
|
|||
I’ve been having a really rough time
All my well-laid plans have fallen through
But now I see what looks to me like my chance
A chance is all I need
And I’m looking forward to everything
I know I can win, I can be the King
No more dumpster diving just to eat
I’m gonna knock ‘em right out of their seats
This is my chance with Marvel
My chance to be a marvel
See me shine, see me glow
With Marvel
My life is out to change
This contest is my opportunity
’Cause now I have a perfect path
Ahead of me
I am ready
I'm seizing each and every opportunity
My heart is beating, telling me
Everything is looking up today
I finally found the way
My chance with Marvel
Wouldn’t it be a marvel
To be a part of such a thing
As Marvel
Who knew something silly as cosplay
Could make me happy and still pay
I can see my future now
My destiny is finally found
My chance with Marvel
My chance with Marvel
This could be everything
With Marvel

The Quest

They told me I’d never find a job
But I’m here
Fuck you!
I’ve got cash from the mob!
I told you that you could follow your dreams
Now look at us
Our pockets bursting at the seams
We took a chance
Chasing after this Marvel-ous chance
Though we almost died at the end of a lance
We’re here now to sing and dance
We finally found the way
The way
Paved
With cold hard cash
Joy is flowing
Confidence growing
All is going
Our way
Now
And my best friend
Will be there every step of the way
Basking in the sweet glow
Of our victory
I believe
Nothing here can go wrong
Success is surely
Guaranteed
Every story
Has it’s glory
Shortly before
Shit goes wrong
“Wait, what?”
[Overlapping:]
My chance with Marvel
It’s what the con’s about
Cosplay! This will surely make you happy
My chance with Marvel
It’s what the con’s about
Cosplay! This will surely make you happy
Sun is setting
And I’m betting
The world is turning ‘round
On this
Con-Quest!

Sew
02:18
|

SEW
Now we’ve got the dough
SEW
And we’re making clothes
SEW
All the ladies know
SEW
That we’ve got the flow, now
Some silly little boys with their cue ball chins
Thinking only ladies can thread and pin
Suffer through holes in their dirty socks
They just don’t know that sewing ROCKS!
But me, Roman, I’m big and strong
And my spool thread is thick and long
It makes tight stitches
for these neat britches
That I’m making with all my riches
Spitting rapid fire beats as I sew down these sheets, listen to the sexy verse I preach
I don’t need a pattern when I sew, I just know, now see if you can follow my cross-stitched flow
Cutting and snipping the fabric is ripping but that’s okay sew it together and make it all better, yeah that’s the way
Foot’s pedaling, meddling with the gelding of the thread, fabric getting pierced by the needle, just the head
SEW
Now we’ve got the dough
SEW
And we’re making clothes
SEW
All the bros know
SEW
That we’ve got the flow, now
Rolling in cash from our business deal
Making tight threads with our sewing wheel
Pulling together a winning piece
Eating food, paying off the lease
Making the vision come together
With lace, velvet, cotton, and leather
Gonna gussy up for the cosplay duel
Gonna win big, first place, we rule!
Over and under, we’re tearing asunder, frustration, inward and outward, causing fabric mutilation
Sewing is to Max like music is to Bose, my brand new combination keepin the judges on their toes
Sewing is a unisex activity, so fuck your gender normativity
Breaking the mold, these partners of old, excuse me folk for being so bold
SEW
Now we’ve got the dough
SEW
And we’re making clothes
SEW
The audience knows
SEW
That we’ve got the flow
SEW
We’re living big
SEW
Take another swig
SEW
We’re making it rain
SEW
All aboard the swag train
SEW
All the ladies now!
SEW
All the fellas now!
SEW
Non-binary!
SEW
That’s how we do

Crossroads
02:05
|

Why is it
That as soon as I get the chance of my life
Things change
And now I’m standing on the edge of a knife
I did exactly what I had to do
Now I have to choose between my destiny and saving you
Max and Alli
My friends to the end
Against the chance for my life to begin
On one side lies love
But what has that done for me
On the other lies fate
But what is destiny
And I find that
Half of what I need is down both paths
I can’t have both
I don’t know what to do
I can’t see
Into the future
But I have to decide now
Can I walk into Marvel
Knowing who I left behind
Can I follow after Max
Knowing what I’m giving up
I’m torn between two visions
And one impossible decision
[Vocal Solo]

Here Together
02:29
|
|||
Together, you and I
Are flying really high
Hand in hand we sail the skies
Though we’re tied to this chair
The feeling of your hair
Sends me into memories of us
Back when we first met
When we got our feet wet
In the rivers of this awesome love
From across the cafe room
Your bright eyes seemed to zoom
Past my eyes and deep into my soul
You bumbled into me
Awkward as could be
You chatted me up, quite adorably
You could say I was hooked
On your wits and looks
I wondered if you could be right for me
And just look at us now
The enemies we’re facing down
We’re ready to conquer the galaxy
Throw caution to the wind
And with your precious grin
We’ll get through thick and thin here together
My endless love for you
Gives me the strength to
Look at you and see a happy ending

Cosplay
We have worked so very hard
Cosplay
Now we show off
The things we’ve done
For Stan Lee
Hoping that he likes it and will give us some money
Cosplay
This is what the Con’s about
Cosplay
Follow your heart
You can’t go wrong
When you can be
Anything you wanted and all that you can conceive
Cosplay
Clipping, cutting, sewing, molding
Cosplay
Changing form and growing wings
And flying to the top
Knowing there is nothing that can ever make you stop
Cosplay
Flowing gowns and flowered crowns
Cosplay
We have it all! It is all here!
And there is us
When we’re all together you have people you can trust

Showdown
02:28

You don’t understand our power
We will kill you in this hour
Poor Ginny will not have died in vain
There is just one thing we need
Give it to us or you’ll bleed
Give us Roman you won’t have to fight
You, have attacked, and now you’re gonna meet your doom
You, think that we, are afraid and will back down
We’re, gonna go, all the way right now
That, is what, your mama said last night when I was having sex with her! her! her!
We are the heroes of this con
We are the cons, we’ll take you on
GIVE US ROMAN
GO FUCK YOURSELF
This is the last chance that you have
Surrender now or face our wrath

Finale

Food and shelter
You need more than that
Unless you want to swelter
In the heat
Of a life void of opportunity
To be the best you that you could ever be
Me and my cousin, we live for each other. I love that boy just like he’s my brother.
Love and trust, one another, I didn’t turn him in when I was under cover
You’re all my friends, I love you all! Let’s celebrate my victory with a bar crawl!
Fuck you all! You’ll rue the day! Don’t think this ends just ‘cause they’re putting me away!
The bonds between us
Holding us together
They will see you through
Any kind of weather
Love comes in many forms
And out of it our dreams are born
Friends, lovers, family, things
It is true that love gives you wings
We kicked their ass and we made up. I’m telling you babe that life’s not so rough.
We’re living the life, me and my girl. I’m ready for the future with my beautiful pearl.
The choices I’ve made, led me here, I’ll never again succumb to fear
My life begins anew each day. Facing every challenge that’s thrown my way
Roman you just got your dream job
And you’ll be working with, a genius
Yo my name is Stan Lee and I’m here to say,
To you motherfuckers that I saved the day
I’ve become
Just what I’ve always dreamed
It worked out
Just so fantastically
Today was the day we took a chance to change our
Lives are looking up and we are flying
Higher everyday not a care in the
Whole wide world is at our feet and we are
Winners leading this
Con-Quest!
