The Mad Ones
Emma Hunton & Krystina Alabado
[KELLY, spoken]
Tell me the part about the candles

[SAM]
Uh...

[KELLY, spoken]
Do not pretend you don't have it memorized

[SAM, spoken]
The only ones for me are the mad ones. Mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time

[KELLY]
If we’re gonna go, we gotta go tonight...

[SAM, spoken]
The ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars...

[KELLY]
Oh...
If we're gonna go, we gotta go tonight
Go tonight
Go tonight
I'm in!
[SAM, spoken]
For what?

[KELLY]
We’re taking the risk
We're the fools who will never learn
Pushed to the edge, out on the ledge
Will you die out or burn, burn, burn?
Don't ask if you can
No, that's a mistake girls make
'Cause those good old boys
They had their good old days
But now they're gone, and now their world
Is ours to take...
We're mad to go
Mad to drive
Mad to be alive
We're chasing stars
A thousand suns
The mad... mad ones
Whoa-oh-oh-oh

[SAM]
Whoa-oh-oh-oh

[KELLY]
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
[SAM]
Whoa-oh-oh-oh

[KELLY]
We break the lock
We kick the door
Mad...

[SAM]
Mad...

[KELLY & SAM]
To reach for more

[KELLY]
We make the rules
We make a vow to be mad
Girl, we’re what matter now
Okay, first thing’s first, you have to go tell that TA I'm not coming back

[SAM, spoken]
What?

[KELLY]
If we’re gonna go, we gotta go tonight
Screw it, he'll figure it out
If we're gonna go, we gotta go tonight
Where are my keys?
[SAM, spoken]
Just calm down, there's planning involved. What are we living on, who’s paying our cell phone bills?

[KELLY, spoken]
Well, A...

[SAM, spoken]
Kelly!

[KELLY]
And two, Sam
If we're gonna go, we gotta go tonight
Go tonight
Go tonight

[SAM]
You're drunk!

[KELLY]
You're drunk!
If we're gonna go, we gotta go tonight
Go tonight
Go tonight

[SAM, spoken]
I am drunk, and I only have a permit! We can't-

[KELLY, spoken]
Stop saying 'can't'!

[SAM, spoken]
Stop telling me what to do!

[KELLY]
If we're gonna go, we gotta go tonight
If we're gonna go, we gotta go tonight

[SAM]
If we're gonna go, we gotta go tonight

[KELLY & SAM]
Go tonight
Go tonight...

[SAM]
Without any plan
Just the keys and the radio

[KELLY]
Yeah!

[KELLY & SAM]
Living for us
Kicking up dust

[SAM]
We just pick up and go, go, go

[KELLY, screaming]
YEAH!

[SAM]
It's never or now

[KELLY]
Never or now, yes!

[KELLY & SAM]
Time to take your foot off the brake...

[SAM]
Yeah, those good old boys
They had their good old days

[KELLY & SAM]
But now they're gone
And now their world

[KELLY]
Is ours to take

[SAM]
It's ours to take

[KELLY & SAM]
We're mad to go
Mad to drive

[KELLY]
Mad

[SAM]
Mad

[KELLY & SAM]
To be alive
We're chasing stars
A thousand suns

[SAM]
The mad

[KELLY]
Mad

[KELLY & SAM]
Mad ones

[SAM]
Whoa-oh-oh

[KELLY]
Whoa-oh-oh

[SAM]
Whoa-oh-oh

[KELLY]
Whoa-oh-oh

[KELLY]
If we're gonna go, we gotta go tonight
Go tonight, go tonight
If we're gonna go, we gotta go tonight
Go tonight

[SAM]
But we didn't go, didn't go
Go that night
Did we?

[KELLY]
No, we didn't go, didn't go
Go that night

[SAM]
I mean, obviously
The whole thing went south
Per usual, Kelly's only plan was running her mouth

[KELLY]
Oh, but who let down who?

[SAM]
Who let down who?

[KELLY]
Who let down who?

[SAM]
Who let down who?

[KELLY]
You were the one who put on the brakes

[SAM]
I wanted to graduate first

[KELLY]
You didn't have what it takes

[SAM]
Oh, who let down who?

[KELLY]
Who let down who?

[SAM]
Like you ever follow through on a single word you say

[KELLY]
If we'd only go that night
Then I wouldn't be dead

[KELLY & SAM]
Tell me...

[SAM]
Who let down who?

[KELLY]
Who let down who?

[SAM]
Who let down who?

[KELLY]
Who let down who?

[SAM]
You!

[KELLY]
You!

[SAM]
You!

[KELLY & SAM]
YOU! YOU! YOU!

[KELLY]
Whoa-oh-oh

[SAM]
Whoa-oh-oh

[KELLY & SAM]
Whoa...

[SAM, simultaneously]
Mad...

[KELLY, simultaneously]
Mad to go
Mad to drive
Mad

[SAM]
Mad

[KELLY & SAM]
To be alive
We're chasing stars
A thousand suns

[SAM]
The mad

[KELLY]
Mad

[KELLY & SAM]
Mad ones

[SAM]
Whoa-oh-oh

[KELLY]
Whoa-oh-oh

[SAM]
Whoa-oh-oh

[KELLY]
Whoa-oh-oh

[KELLY & SAM]
We break the lock
We kick the door

[SAM]
Mad

[KELLY]
Mad

[KELLY & SAM]
To reach for more
We make the rules
We make a vow
To be mad
Girl, we're what matter now
Whoa-oh-oh
