VINCENT:
I wanted someone strong who could protect me.
I let her anger fester and infect me.
Her solution is a lie.
No one here deserves to die except for me and the monster I created.
Yeah!
Yeah!
Heads up, JD, I'm a dead boy walking!

ALL BUT VINCENT (chanted): Hey yo Westerberg!

VINCENT: Can't hide from me, I'm your dead boy walking!

ALL BUT VINCENT (chanted):
Hey yo Westerberg!

VINCENT:
And there's your final bell,
(school bell rings)
It's one more dance and then farewell,
Cheek to cheek in hell with a dead boy walkin'!

HUNTER MCNAMARA (chanted):
Come on, Westerberg!
Here we go, Here we go now!

MR. FLEMING (spoken): Vincent! Jamie Dean told us you'd just committed suicide!

VINCENT (spoken): Yeah, well, she's wrong about a lot of things.

MR. FLEMING: I threw together a lovely tribute, especially given the short notice.

VINCENT: Mr. Fleming, what's under the gym?

MR. FLEMING: The boiler room.

VINCENT:
That's it!

MR. FLEMING:
Vincent, what's going on?

VINCENT (sung): Got no time to talk I'm a dead boy walking!

STUDENTS (chanted):
Hey yo Westerberg!
Hey yo Westerberg!
Tell me what's that sound?
Here comes Westerberg
Comin' to put you in the ground!
Go go Westernberg!
Give a great big yell!
Westerberg will knock you out
And send you straight to hell!

VINCENT (spoken): Step away from the bomb.

JD (spoken):
This little thing? I'd hardly call this a bomb. This is just to set off the packs of thermals upstairs in the gym.
Those are bombs. People are going to see the ashes of Westerberg
And say there's a school that self-destructed not because society didn't care,
But because that school was society. The only place Hunters and Martins can truly get along is in Heaven!

VINCENT (sung):
I wish your dad had been a little stronger.
I wish he stayed around a little longer.
I wish your mom were good!
I wish grown-ups understood!
I wish we met before they convinced you life is war!
I wish you'd come with me—

JD: I wish I had more TNT!

JD (spoken): Aah! Jesus!

STUDENTS (chanted):
Hey yo Westerberg!
Hey yo Westerberg!
Tell me what's that sound?
Here comes Westerberg
Comin' to put you in the ground!
Go go Westernberg!
Give a great big yell!
Westerberg will knock you out
And send you straight to hell!
