[00:00.000] 作词 : Michael R. Jackson
[00:00.226] 作曲 : Michael R. Jackson
[00:00.452]THOUGHTS, VARIOUSLY: Usher! Usher! Usher!
[00:37.570]USHER, spoken: Can I really write this?
[00:40.179]THOUGHTS: How many minutes 'til the end of intermission?
[00:42.774]Is that how the show should open?
[00:44.337]Should there even be a show?
[00:45.629]No, it should it start with what he's thinking
[00:47.222]Which is just a cursor blinking
[00:48.514]Cause of all of the directions
[00:49.818]That the narrative could go!
[00:51.389]USHER: He has to show what it's like to live up here
[00:56.085]And travel the world in a fat, black, queer body
[01:02.870]THOUGHTS: How many minutes 'til the end of intermission?
[01:05.213]No one cares about a writer
[01:06.774]Who is struggling to write!
[01:08.065]They'll say it's way too repetitious
[01:09.644]And it's overly ambitious
[01:10.953]Which, of course, makes them suspicious
[01:12.277]That you think you're fukking white!
[01:13.589]USHER: He has to fight for his right to live in a world
[01:18.580]That chews up and spits out black queers on the daily
[01:25.139]THOUGHTS: Blackness, queerness, fighting back to fill this cishet, all-white space
[01:30.352]With a portrait of a portrait of a portrait of a black, queer face
[01:36.099]And a choir full of black, queer voices, treble clef (and also bass!)
[01:41.855]That are casting spells to conjure up a-
[01:45.003]USHER: Big, black and queer-a*s American Broadway-
[01:47.861]THOUGHTS: Big, black and queer-a*s American Broadway-
[01:50.465]ALL: Big, black and queer-a*s American Broadway show!
[02:16.805]THOUGHTS: How many minutes 'til the end of intermission
[02:19.420]'Til he has to face the fact that he is really in a jam?
[02:22.027]He has no patrons he can call on
[02:23.593]Nor a backup plan to fall on
[02:25.140]Just a hamster wheel to crawl on
[02:26.465]And nobody gives a damn!
[02:27.775]USHER: He tries to scramble and dodge and extricate
[02:32.517]Still, his fate lies in wait, like a scavenging vulture
[02:38.548]All he wants is to subvert expectations, black and white
[02:43.807]From the left and the right, for the good of the culture!
[02:51.147]THOUGHTS: Usher, Usher! Usher, Usher!
[02:53.747]Usher, Usher! Usher, Usher!
[02:56.339]How many minutes 'til the end of intermission?
[02:58.679]You're a ball of black confusion
[03:00.248]That keeps hitting a plateau!
[03:01.569]You can't just flout every convention

[03:10.461]Some say "write from exploration,"
[03:11.751]Some say "just write what you know!"

THOUGHTS, VARIOUSLY: Usher! Usher! Usher!
USHER, spoken: Can I really write this?
THOUGHTS: How many minutes 'til the end of intermission?
Is that how the show should open?
Should there even be a show?
No, it should it start with what he's thinking
Which is just a cursor blinking
Cause of all of the directions
That the narrative could go!
USHER: He has to show what it's like to live up here
And travel the world in a fat, black, queer body
THOUGHTS: How many minutes 'til the end of intermission?
No one cares about a writer
Who is struggling to write!
They'll say it's way too repetitious
And it's overly ambitious
Which, of course, makes them suspicious
That you think you're fukking white!
USHER: He has to fight for his right to live in a world
That chews up and spits out black queers on the daily
THOUGHTS: Blackness, queerness, fighting back to fill this cishet, all-white space
With a portrait of a portrait of a portrait of a black, queer face
And a choir full of black, queer voices, treble clef (and also bass!)

USHER: Big, black and queer-a*s American Broadway-

'Til he has to face the fact that he is really in a jam?
He has no patrons he can call on
Nor a backup plan to fall on
Just a hamster wheel to crawl on
And nobody gives a damn!
