lyrics

(Now the curtain or screen rises at a signal from MERCURY, and we see first the BAND, and then as lights come up, the stage of the UNDERLAND ROCK CLUB. It is a typical medium-sized rock club stage. Amps, monitors, cables everywhere. Banks of par cans visible to the audience. Cups of water and bottles of beer on the floor, on the amps, everywhere. Drum and percussion risers in the back. The BAND acts casual and confident, joking with each other while playing. Roadies hover at the sides and occasionally walk out to adjust something. While going through his patter MERCURY struts about, points out individual audience members and winks at them, high fives individual band members.)

MERCURY Z:
People, people people!
Welcome one and all
I'm your host, Mercury Z
I run this little concert hall
This rock'n'roll cabaret
A home base for Far-outs and Freaks
You'll here all the latest sounds here
As well as some noble antiques
A special "hello" to our first-timers tonight
The honor is all on our side
This boogie balloon will soon rise and take flight
So let us strap you down for the ride
Please feast your eyes on the beautiful choir
And the ever-sexy band
They are willing to grant your every whim and desire
Here at the Underland....

CAST:
Welcome, to the Underland
Let us take your hand
Have no fear
We're all friends here
And the end is near
So come on inside
And ride, ride, ride!

MERCURY Z:
Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Kitten Candi!

KITTEN CANDI:
Good-looking girls, and beautiful boys
So good to be here tonight
Why don’t you help me out and make a little noise
So we can do this thing right
I got a demon in the shape of a pill
Never gives me a break
All day he bounces me from fever to chill
All night he keeps me awake
A never-ending itch I just gotta scratch
A little bit just leaves me thirsty for more
So pour the kerosene and light me a match
And start the fireworks on the Underland floor!

CAST:
Welcome, to the Underland
Let us take your hand
Come through the wall
We've tried it all
So enjoy your fall
Come stay for a while
And smile, smile, smile!
