Troy:
It’s hard to believe
That I couldn’t see
You were always there beside me

Gabriella:
Thought I was alone
With no one to hold

Both:
But you were always right beside me
This feeling’s like no other
I want you to know

Chorus
Both:
I’ve never had someone that knows me like you do
The way you do
I’ve never had someone as good for me as you
No one like you
So lonely before I finally found
What I’ve been looking for

Stick To The Status Quo

Zeke:
You can bet
There's nothin' but net
When I am in a zone and on a roll
But I've got a confession
My own secret obsession
And it's making me lose control

Jocks:
Everybody gather 'round

Zeke(spoken):
Well if Troy can tell his secret than I can tell mine...I bake

Jock(spoken):
What?

Zeke(spoken):
I love to bake! Strudels, scones, even apple pandowdy

Jocks:
Not another sound

Zeke(spoken):
Someday I hope to make the perfect creme brulee

Jocks:
No, no, no, nooooooooooo
No, no, no
Stick to the stuff you know
If you wanna be cool
Follow one simple rule
Don't mess with the flow, no no
Stick to the status quo

Martha Cox:
Look at me
And what do you see
Intelligence beyond compare
But inside I am stirring
Something strange is occuring
It's a secret I need to share

Brainiacs:
Open up, dig way down deep

Martha Cox(spoken):
Hip hop is my passion! I love to pop and lock and jam and break!

Braniac(spoken):
Is that even legal?

Brainiacs:
Not another peep

Martha(spoken):
It's just dancing. Sometimes I think it's cooler than homework.

Brainiacs:
No, no, no, noooooooooo
No, no, no
Stick to the stuff you know
It is better by far
To keep things as they are
Don't mess with the flow, no no
Stick to the status quo

Skaterdude:
Listen well
I'm ready to tell
About a need that I cannot deny
Dude, there's no explanation
For this awesome sensation
But I'm ready to let it fly

Dudes & Dudettes:
Speak your mind and you'll be heard

Skaterdude(spoken):
Alright, if Troy wants to be a singer... then i'm coming clean! I play the cello!

Dude 1(spoken):
Awesome!

Dude 2(spoken):
What is it?

Dude 1(spoken):
A saw?

Skaterdude(spoken):
No, dude, it's like a giant violin!

Dudes & Dudettes:
Not another word

Dude 2(spoken):
Do you have to wear a costume?

Skaterdude(spoken):
Coat and tie

Dudes & Dudettes:
No, no, no, nooooooooooo
No, no, no
Stick to the stuff you know
If you wanna be cool
Follow one simple rule
Don't mess with the flow, no no
Stick to the status quoooooooo

Jocks, Brainiacs, & Dudes:
No, no, no
stick to the stuff you know
It is better by far
To keep things as they are
Don't mess with the flow, no no
Stick to the status quo

Sharpay:
This is not what I want
This is not what I planned
And I just gotta say
I do not understand
Someting is really

Ryan:
Something's not right

Sharpay:
Really wrong

Sharpay & Ryan:
And we gotta get things
Back where they belong
We can do it

Skaterdude:
Gotta play

Dudes & Dudettes:
Stick with what you know

Sharpay & Ryan:
We can do it

Martha Cox:
Hip hop hooray

Brainiacs:
She has got to go

Sharpay & Ryan:
We can do it

Zeke:
Creme Brulee

Jocks:
Keep your voice down low

Jocks, Brainiacs & Dudes/Dudettes:
Not another peep
No, not another word
No, not another sound
No

Sharpay:
Everybody quiet

Gabriella(spoken):
Why is everybody staring at you?

Monique(spoken):
Not me, you.

Gabriella(spoken):
Because of the callbacks? I can't have people staring at me! I really can't!

Jocks, Brainiacs...:
Noooooooooooooo, no, no, no
Sick to the stuff you know
If you want to be cool
Follow one simple rule
Don't mess with the flow, oh no
Stick to the status quooooooooooooo
No, no, no
Stick to the stuff you know
It is better by far
To keep things as they are
Don't mess with the flow, no no
Stick to the status
stick to the status
Stick to the status quo

When There Was Me And You

It's funny when you find yourself
Looking from the outside
I'm standing here but all I want
Is to be over there
Why did I let myself believe
Miracles could happen
Cause now I have to pretend
That I don't really care

I thought you were my fairytale
A dream when I'm not sleeping
A wish upon a star
Thats coming true
But everybody else could tell
That I confused my feelings with the truth
When there was me and you

I swore I knew the melody
That I heard you singing
And when you smiled
You made me feel
Like I could sing along
But then you went and changed the words
Now my heart is empty
I'm only left with used-to-be's
Once upon a song

Now I know your not a fairytale
And dreams were meant for sleeping
And wishes on a star
Just don't come true
Cause now even I tell
That I confused my feelings with the truth
Cause I liked the view
When there was me and you

I can't believe that
I could be so blind
It's like you were floating
While I was falling
And I didn't mind

Cause I liked the view
Thought you felt it too
When there was me and you
Bop To The Top

Sharpay:
I believe in dreamin’
Shootin’ for the stars

Ryan:
Baby to be number one
You’ve got to raise the bar

Sharpay:
Kickin’ and a scratchin’
Grindin’ out my best

Ryan:
Anything it takes
To climb the ladder of success

Both:
Work our tails off every day
Gotta bump the competition
Blow them all away

Sharpay:
Yeah we’re gonna

Both:
Bop, bop, bop
Bop to the top

Ryan:
Slip and slide and ride that rhythm

Both:
Jump and hop hop ‘til we drop

Sharpay:
And start again

Zip zap zop
Pop like a mop

Ryan:
Scoot around the corner

Both:
Move it to the groove
‘Til the music stops
Do the bop bop, bop to the top
Don’t ever stop
Bop to the top

Gimmie, gimmie
Shimmy shimmy
Shake some booty and turn around
Flash a smile in their direction

Sharpay:
Show some muscle

Ryan:
Do the hustle

Both:
Yeah we’re gonna bop, bop, bop
Bop to the top

Ryan:
Wipe away your inhibitions

Both:
Stump, stump, stump do the rump

Sharpay:
And strut your stuff

Both:
Bop, bop, bop
Straight to the top
Going for the glory
We’ll keep stepping up
And we just won’t stop
‘Til we reach the top
Bop to the top

Breaking Free

Troy:
We’re soarin’, flyin’
There’s not a star in heaven
That we can’t reach

Gabriella:
If we’re trying
So we’re breaking free

Troy:
You know the world can see us
In a way that’s different than who we are

Gabriella:
Creating space between us
‘Til we’re separate hearts

Both:
But your faith it gives me strength
Strength to believe

So every one can see

More than faith

More than me

Not a want, but a need
Both:
Both of us breakin’ free

Both:
You know the world can see us
In a way that’s different than who we are
