White Trash Theatre School
Street Drama Unveiled: Chaos, Scissors, and Wheels
Lyrics
Look at us on the streets
Observing ourselves in public spaces
Arguing what shouldn’t be
Engaging in unnecessary arguments
Like a king and a saint
Comparing ourselves to royalty and virtue
You point in my face
Accusation or confrontation with pointing
I spit in your way
Responding disrespectfully
to shut you up
Using spit as a means to silence
but we get louder
Despite attempts to quiet down, the argument escalates
Do you see them looking at us?
Awareness of onlookers
Rehearsing for the White Trash Theatre School
Imaginary preparation for a performance at a low-class theater school
Here comes Deborah
Introduction of a character named Deborah
She’s such a diva
Describing Deborah as dramatic or attention-seeking
with her new wheelchair
Reference to Deborah's new wheelchair
And Kelly she comes
Introduction of another character named Kelly
from behind with scissors
Depiction of Kelly attempting to cut Deborah's hair
trying to cut her hair
Highlighting the chaotic nature of the scene
Cops come in slow motion:
Police arrive, seemingly in slow motion
“What’s the commotion?’’
Questioning the cause of the disturbance
Adjusting their belts
Police adjusting their belts, preparing to intervene
“We don’t need help,
Rejecting assistance, claiming they are just acting
we’re just doing our lines
Emphasizing the performance aspect of their behavior
and look at the crowd we just built.’’
Boasting about attracting attention from the crowd
Do you see them looking at us?
Repetition of questioning onlookers' awareness
Do you see them looking at us?
-Do you see them looking at us?
-Rehearsing for the White Trash Theatre School
Reiteration of preparing for a performance at a low-class theater school
Here comes Peter with his P.E.I. Dirt shirt
Introduction of a character named Peter with a specific shirt
Arriving late
Noting Peter's late arrival
He butters their toast and makes teeth soup
Describing Peter's peculiar actions with food
He understood it was their favourite
Recognition of Peter's understanding of others' preferences
Do you see them looking at us?
Repetition of questioning onlookers' awareness
Take a bow for the White Trash Theatre School
Encouragement to acknowledge the performance of the "White Trash Theatre School"
