When You're a Transformer

   
Gatesy: Our little topics were haemorrhoids, fairy bread, sisters, Xerox, and Transformers. And sort of like an ABBA feel.
Scod: It must be stated - ABBA, fucking good songwriters! I mean, Jesus!
Yon: And we're... not.
   
  Can I just... I hope I'm not wrecking any of the plot by saying I play both of the sisters.
Gatesy: Yonny playing girls? How weird!
Yon: I hope it's not confusing, anyway.
   
Yon and Scod: (Both start singing at the same time with different words)
   
Scod: Don't I start this?
Yon: No!
Scod: No, you do! Oh yeah, sorry. My fault.
Yon: You can join in if you want... but don't fuck it up.
   
Yon: They say that if you try, you'll achieve your dreams,
  But who will pay the price in between?
Tripod: Glu-glung, glu-glung, glu-glung, glu-glung,
  Glu-glung glung glung!
   
Gatesy: That's pretty good.
   
Gatesy: You'd hope that being family was enough,
  But circumstances can be tough.
Tripod: Glu-glung, glu-glung, glu-glung, glu-glung,
  Glu-glung glung!
   
Scod: You have to choose,
  And one of you must lose...
   
  On the world of Transformers,
  The man Transformers are in charge.
Tripod: You never hear about,
  The lady Transformers.
   
Yon: But they do exist, and they often come...
  ... in pairs, not "come"...
Yon: I don't mean...!
Gatesy: They exist!
Yon and Gatesy: Exist, exist, exist, exist!
   
Tripod: The sisters' names,
  Are Weapontron and... Kate?
  And through this game,
  Their love has turned to... hate?
   
  When you're a Transformer,
  You will see that some things never change.
  They might re-arrange,
  Into a car, a truck, a plane.
  But if you're Weapontron and Kate,
  You might not have so much luck,
  You might not turn into a truck.
  How does a Transformer get ahead,
  When the thing they turn into is fairy bread?
   
Yon: Weapontron and Kate had to find a skill,
  Because they couldn't fight or kill.
Tripod: And their transformations,
  Weren't that much to see.
   
Scod: But they had photographic memory,
  And lots of mental energy.
Tripod: And so they entered,
  A Transformer spelling bee,
Scod: Which caused sibling rivalry.
   
Gatesy: So, young sisters! It is down to you two. You have beaten all the other pissweak Transformers, including the formidable one that turned into a doughnut - Doughnutron.
  Weapontron, spell "Xerox"!
   
Yon: Xerox. Triple-Z...
Gatesy: (Buzzer noise)
Yon: No, no, no, no, no! X... Z...
Gatesy: (Buzzer noise)
   
  Okay, you are out of the game. If Kate wins, there certainly will be Something for Kate.
   
  (To audience) I wrote that one!
Scod: He insisted that joke go in.
Yon: There was no time to stop him!
Gatesy: They don't give these jobs to monkeys.
   
  Kate! Spell "haemorrhoids"!
Yon: Haemorrhoids. H... M...
Gatesy: (Buzzer noise)
  Wrong! But in order for this song to make sense... Kate, you win!
   
Tripod: When you're a Transformer,
  You will see that some things never change.
  They might re-arrange,
  Into a car, a truck, a plane.
  But if you're Weapontron and Kate,
  You might not have so much luck,
  You might not turn into a truck.
  How does a Transformer get ahead,
  When the thing they turn into is fairy bread?
