Get'cha Head In The Game - ZAC EFRON 





Coach said to fake right
And break left
Watch out for the pick
And keep an eye on defense
Gotta run the give and go
And take the ball to the hole
But don't be afraid
To shoot the outside "J"

Gotta get'cha head in the game
Gotta get'cha get'cha get'cha head in the game

And don't be afraid 
To shoot the outside "J"
Just keep ya head in the game

U gotta 
Get'cha get'cha head in the game
We gotta
Get our, get our, get our, get our head in the game
[repeat 3x]

Let's make sure
That we get the rebound
'Cause when we get it 
Then the crowd will go wild
A second chance
Gotta grab it and go
Maybe this time
We'll hit the right notes

Wait a minute
It's not the time or place
Wait a minute
Get my head in the game
Wait a minute
Get my head in the game
Wait a minute
Wait a minute

I gotta 
Get my, get my head in the game
You gotta 
Get'cha, get'cha, get'cha, get'cha head in the game
[repeat 3x]

Why am I feeling so wrong
My head's in the game 
But my heart's in the song
She makes this feel so right

[SPOKEN]
Should I go for it
Better shake this, yikes!

I gotta 
Get my, get my head in the game
You gotta 
Get'cha, get'cha, get'cha, get'cha head in the game
[repeat 4x]
 
 

 


What I've Been Looking For - ASHLEY TISDALE & LUCAS GRABEEL 






[Ryan:]
It's hard to believe
That I couldn't see

[Together:]
You were always there beside me
Thought I was alone
With no one to hold
But you were always right beside me

[Sharpay:]
This feelings like no other

[Together:]
I want you to know

I've never had someone that knows me like you do 
the way you do 
I've never had somone as good for me as you 
no one like you so lonely before i finally found 
what i've been looking for

[Sharpay:]
So good to be seen
So good to be heard

[Together:]
Don't have to say a word

[Ryan:]
For so long I was lost
So good to be found 

[Together:]
I'm loving having you around

[Ryan:]
This feeling's like no other 

[Together:]
I want you to know

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 ben looking for

[Together:]
Doo Doo DooDoo
Doo Doo DooDoo
Do Do

Woa-ah-ah-oh

 
 






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
Something 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
Stick 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 - VANESSA ANNE HUDGENS




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

[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

Shake some booty and turn around
Flash a smile in their direction

[Sharpay:]

Bop to the top

[Ryan:]

Bop to the top

Strength to believe
