Notes:

(See the end of the work for notes.)

Work Text:

Rebels:For centuries we’ve lived in peace
Now our gods are here with us
Then for seven years, waited patiently
To utilize our Mother Grub

 Now it’s decades later still
 How could we have foreseen this war
 Now every troll must test their will
 As death comes knocking at our door
 
 Oh, Karkat, our rebellious leader
 Tell us what to do
 Oh, Meenah, our overeager
 Tactician, we await your cue
 Our time of death is coming soon
 Unless we can win this fight
 We trolls have thicker skin than you
 We’ll end this genocide

Swifer:Sir, Vantas, have you reviewed the plans?
Karkat:I’ve got everything well in hand!
Meenah:Shouty, it’s almost time for the next wave

Rose: I live to fight alongside my wife
Kanaya:To give our daughter a better life
Jade: I hope Karkat’s doing well, don’t you, Dave?

All: Oh, Karkat, our rebellious leader
 Tell us what to do
 Oh, Meenah, our overeager
 Tactician, we await your cue
 Our time of death is coming soon
 Unless we can win this fight
 We trolls have thicker skin than you
 We’ll end this genocide

Roxy: What Jane decides has nothing to do with me
Jake: I’ll use this distraction to break me and my son free
Rebels:Since you refuse to leave us alone
 We’ll drag you from your corporate throne

Jake: Jane
Roxy: Jane
Gamzee:Jane
All: You’re on your own

 

Notes:

I accidentally had "tactician" as "statistician" and boy are those different jobs lmao
I do feel the rebels' chorus could use some work though
Act Two is a bit rougher than Act One lol
