Lyrics[]
Rachel:
Sing it out
Boy, you've got to see what tomorrow brings
Finn:
Sing it out
Girl, you've got to be what tomorrow needs
Rachel:
For every time that they want to count you out
Finn:
And use your voice (Rachel: Uhhh!)
Every single time
Finn and Rachel:
You open up your mouth
Finn and Rachel with New Directions:
Sing it for the boys
Sing it for the girls; Every time that you lose it sing it for the world
Sing it from the heart
Sing it 'til you're nuts
Sing it out for the ones that'll hate your guts
Sing it for the deaf
Sing it for the blind
Sing about everyone that you left behind
Sing it for the world, sing it for the world
Rachel:
Aaaah
Finn and Rachel:
Sing it out!
Finn:
Boy they're gonna sell what tomorrow means
Rachel:
Oohuh
Finn and Rachel:
Sing it out!
Rachel:
Boy before they kill what tomorrow brings
Finn:
You've got to, make a choice if the music drowns you out (Rachel: Music drowns you out)
And raise your voice every single time
They
Finn with New Directions and Sue:
Try and shut your mouth
Finn and Rachel with New Directions and Sue:
Sing it for the boys
Sing it for the girls; Every time that you lose it sing it for the world
Sing it from the heart
Sing it 'til you're nuts
Sing it out for the ones that'll hate your guts
Sing it for the deaf
Sing it for the blind
Sing about everyone that you left behind
Sing it for the world, sing it for the world
Rachel:
Hooo-ho
Rachel with New Directions:
Cleaned-up, corporation progress
Dying in the process
Children that can talk about it
Living on the webways,
People moving sideways
Sell it ‘til your last days
Buy yourself the motivation
Generation nothing, nothing but a dead scene
Product of a white dream
I am not the singer that you wanted, but a dancer
I refuse to answer, talk about the past, sir
Wrote it for the ones who want to get away
Finn:
Keep running!
Finn and Rachel with New Directions and Sue:
Sing it for the boys
Sing it for the girls; Every time that you lose it sing it for the world
Sing it from the heart
Sing it 'til you're nuts
Sing it out for the ones that'll hate your guts
Sing it for the deaf
Sing it for the blind
Sing about everyone that you left behind
Sing it for the world, sing it for the world
Rachel:
We’ve got to see what tomorrow brings
Finn and Rachel with New Directions:
Sing it for the world
Sing it for the world
Rachel:
Boy you've got to be what tomorrow needs
Finn and Rachel with New Directions:
Sing it for the world
Sing it for the world
Trivia[]
- In Tina in the Sky with Diamonds, Sue makes a reference to this performance as she talks to Bree about destroying Glee Club. She says they aren't scared of her anymore because she performed with them in "plaid-pyjamas".
- This song is featured in Chapter 4 of the Glee Forever! app.
- My Chemical Romance's lead vocalist Gerard Way and bassist Mikey Way reacted to the cover, saying that the "outfits were weird", but nonetheless, they enjoyed it.
- When the Glee version debuted at #49 on the Billboard Hot 100, the original version of the song rose 34 places to a new peak of #58, showing gains in performance.
Error[]
- Sue claims that the reason New Directions cannot perform the song is that her ex-lover is the drummer of My Chemical Romance, and refused to allow the club to use the song. However, in 2011 the drummer of MCR was Michael Pedicone, who was not an official member of the band, and would not have legally been able to write a cease and desist letter on their behalf.
