lyrics

Hudson:

They’re all just postin’ in Galena
rockin’ their prospects and demeanor.
These dirty captions
make ‘em look so much cleaner.
Everyone’s postin’ in galena
brag ‘n they boast about good feelings.

Paxton:

I tagged myself with tom cruise.

Simon

I took a pic of my step-dad nude.

Hudson:

For every post, and every like,
allows their conscience to sleep at night.
With every comment, and every share,
let them see who truly cares?

Paxton:

Make way, make way!

Oh, gorgeous. Now pose on the bed, and
show off that birthday sash.

Aurora:

But it’s not my birthday.

Paxton:

It is if you want two hundred likes.

Aurora:

Well, okay.

Paxton:

Hmm... do you have more concealer?

Aurora:

Uh, no. can you just try a filter?

Paxton

I guess.

Casey:

Babe, people like your pics because they know
you. cuz you’re real.

Paxton:

People don’t want real, Casey. They want
someone they can aspire to be.

Aurora:

Yeah, I’d rather just show the fans what they
wanna see.

There’s nothing wrong,
with this feeling of floating on air.
With every song that we’re singing keeps,
us without a care.

And to prolong these emotions,
I’d kill before share.
I’ll post again, so I know,
I would never go there!

Hudson:

Wow! Gym class. Physical exertion. Am I right
or am I left?

Vinnie:

We don’t have P.E. until next period, dude.

Hudson:

Yeah, no... this is from lookin’ at Mrs. Pedroza
all class. what a fine fox.

Simon:

Bro, she’s like seventy-four years old.

Hudson:

Yeah... that’s- what I like. it was so hot when
she dropped her I.V. during the lecture.

Simon:

Gross.

Hudson:

A cell phone crowd, huh? What’s the big deal
with texting all the time, anyway?
I’m alone in the house and I heard a crash,
maybe I should facetime the police!

Hudson:

We’re just tryin’ in galena
post we’re fine, and they’ll believe it,
We’re just hoping that the feelin’ stays
but know that we’ll delete it.
Everyone’s prayin’ in galena,
that we’ll stay the way they see us.

Rachel:

I photoshopped my dad cheatin’ on my mom!

Casey:

I outed brad right before prom!

Aurora/Hudson

With every post, and every like,
allows our conscience to sleep at night.
Then every comment, and every share,
lets us see who truly cares!

Instrumental

Students:

There’s nothing wrong,
with this feeling of floating on air.
With every song that we’re singing
keeps us without a care.

Hudson:

And to defend,
these emotions that make people stare,
I’ll post again till someone will
see that I’m there.

Mr. Starlson:

You know, Hudson. You don’t need
technology. I think your genuinity can shine
brighter than any phone screen. And at least
your light won’t lead to neck pains, sleep
problems, and depression.
