== Scene 1: The Schoolhouse Rock 47th anniversary karaoke party house ==
Guest Star: "Hi there, welcome to our karaoke house party of Schoolhouse Rock: A Celebration of 47 Years, I'm (Guest Star's 1st name),"
Guest Star: "I'm (Guest Star's 1st name),"
Greg: "I'm Greg,"
Murray: "I'm Murray,"
Sam: "I'm Sam,"
Simon: "I'm Simon,"
Guest Star: "I'm (Guest Star's 1st name),"
Guest Star: "and I'm (Guest Star's 1st name)."
Greg: "And tonight, we're gonna perform all 10 of your most favorite Schoolhouse Rock karaoke hits in honor of our Schoolhouse Rock 47th anniversary party,"
Murray: "so let's begin."
Guest Star: "Did you guys know that Schoolhouse Rock was created 47 years ago back on Saturday, January 6, 1973?"
Greg: "Oh yeah, I remember that year, that's when the late singer and composer, Bob Dorough composed and sang some of the songs and brought all of the well known animated characters to life with pencil and paper." 
Announcer: "And now to begin: My Hero 0."
Guest Star: "0?"
Greg: "Yeah, 0 is a wonderful thing, in fact, 0 is my hero."
Guest Star: "How can 0 be a hero?"
Greg: "Well there are all kinds of heroes you know: a man can get to be a hero for a famous battle he fought, or by studying very hard and becoming a weightless astronaut, and then there are heroes of other sorts like the heroes we know from watching sports, but a hero doesn't have to be a grown up person, you know, a hero can be a very big dog who comes to your rescue, or a very little boy who's smart enough to know what to do, but let me tell you about my favorite hero."
[Music On Karaoke Machine]
Greg: My hero 0
such a funny little hero
but 'til you came along
we counted on 
our fingers and toes
now you're here to stay
Greg (continued): 'cause nobody 
really knows
how wonderful
you are
why we could never 
reach a star
without you 0
my hero
how wonderful 
you are
Guest Star: "What's so wonderful about a 0? it's nothing isn't it?"
Greg: "Sure, it represents nothing alone."
Greg: but place a 0 
after 1
and you got yourself
a 10
see how important
that is
Greg (continued): when you run outta digits
you can start all over 
again
see how convenient that is
Greg: that's why with only 
10 digits 
including 0
you can count as high
as you could ever go
Greg (continued): forever
towards infinity
no 1 ever gets there
but you could try
Greg: 10 billion 0s
from the cavemen 'til the heroes
who invented you
they counted on their
fingers and toes
(spoken) "or maybe some sticks and stones, or rocks and bones, their neighbors' toes."
you're here
and nobody really knows
how wonderful 
you are
why we could never
reach a star
without you 0
my hero
0
how wonderful 
you are
Greg (continued) place 1 0 after 
any number 
and you multiplied that number
by 10 
see how easy that is
Greg: place 2 0s after
any number 
and you multiplied that number
by 100
Greg (continued): place 3 0s after
any number
and you multiplied that number
by 1000
Greg: et cetera
et cetera 
ad infinitum
ad astra
forever 
and ever
with 0
my hero
how wonderful you are......
Announcer: "And now it's time to hear about The Shot heard 'Round the World."
[Sounds Of Horses Galloping]
Sam: "The British are comin', the British are comin'!"
[Music On Karaoke Machine]
Guest Star: now the ride of Paul Revere
set the nation on its ear
and the shot at Lexington
heard 'round the world
Guest Star (continued): when the British fired
at the early dawn
the war of independence
had begun
the die was cast
the rebel flag
unfurled
Guest Star: and onto concord
marched the foe
to seize the arsenal
there you know
wakin' folks
searchin' all around
Guest Star: 'til our militia
stopped them
in their tracks
at the old north bridge
we turned them back
and chased those redcoats
back to Boston Town
Guest Star (continued): and the shot heard 'round the world
was the start of the revolution
the minute men were ready
on the move
Guest Star: take your powder
take your gun
report to General Washington
hurry men
there's not an hour
to lose
Guest Star: now at famous Bunker Hill
even though we lost
it was quite a thrill
the Rebel Colonel Prescott
proved he was wise
Guest Star: Outnumbered and low
on ammunition
as the British stormed his position
he said
hold your fire
'til you see
the whites of their eyes
Guest Star: though the next few years
were rough
General Washington's men proved
they were tough
those hungry
ragged boys
would not be beat
Guest Star (continued): 1 night
they crossed the Delaware
surprised the Hessians
in their lair
and at Valley Forge
they just
bundled up their feet
Guest Star: and the shot heard 'round the world
was the start of the Revolution
the Minute Men were ready
on the move
Guest Star: take your blanket
take your son
report to General Washington
we got our rights
and now it's time
to prove
Guest Star: well they showed such determination
that they won the admiration
of countries 'cross the sea
like France and Spain
Guest Star: who loaned the colonies
ships and guns
and put the British
on the run
and the Continental Army
on its feet again
Guest Star: and though they lost
some battles too
the Americans swore
they see it through
their raidin' parties
kept up
hit and run
Guest Star: at Yorktown
the British could not retreat
bottled up by Washington
and the French Fleet
Cornwallis surrendered
and finally
we had won
Guest Star: from the shot heard 'round the world
to the end of the Revolution
the continental rabble
took the day
and the father of our country
beat the British there
at Yorktown
brought freedom to you and me
and the USA
God bless America
let freedom ring
Announcer: "Now it's time for I'm Just a Bill."
[Music On Karaoke Machine]
Simon: "You sure gotta climb a lot of steps to get to this Capitol Building here in Washington, but I wonder who that sad little scrap of paper is."
Murray: I'm just a bill
yes I'm only a bill
and I'm sitting here
on Capitol Hill
Murray (continued): well it's a
long, long
journey
to the Capitol City
it's a long, long wait
while I'm sitting
in committee
Murray: but I know
I'll be a law
someday
at least I hope and pray
that they will
but today
I am still
just a bill
Sam: "Gee, Bill, you certainly have a lot of patience and courage."
Murray: "Well I got this far, when I started, I wasn't even a bill, I was just an idea, some folks back home decided they wanted a law passed so they called their local Congressman and he said You're right, there outta be a law, then he sat down and wrote me out and introduced me to Congress and I became a bill, and I'll remain a bill 'til they decide to make me a law."
Murray: I'm just a bill
yes I'm only a bill
and I got as far
as Capitol Hill
Murray (continued): well now
I'm stuck
in committee
and I'll sit here
and wait
while a few key
Congressmen
discuss and debate
whether they should
let me be a law
how I hope and pray
that they will
but today
I am still
just a bill
Sam: "Listen to those congressmen arguing, is all that discussion and debate about you?"
Murray: "Yeah, I'm 1 of the lucky 1s, most bills never even get this far, I hope they decide to report on me favorably, otherwise I may die."
Simon: "Die?"
Murray: "Yeah, die in committee, oh, but it looks like I'm gonna live, now I go to the House of Representatives and they vote on me."
Sam: "If they vote yes, what happens?"
Murray: "Then I go to the Senate and the whole thing starts all over again."
Simon: "Oh no."
Murray: "Oh yeah."
Murray: I'm just a bill
yes I'm only a bill
and if they vote for me 
on Capitol Hill
Murray (continued): Well then I'm off 
to the White House
where I'll wait in a line
with a lot of other bills
for the president to sign
and if he signs me 
then I'll be a law
how I hope and pray 
that he will
but today I am still 
just a bill
Simon: "You mean even if the whole Congress says you should be a law, the president can still say no?"
Murray: "Yes, that's called a veto, if the President vetoes me, I have to go back to Congress and they vote on me again, and by that time you're so old-"
Sam: "By that time it's very unlikely that you'll become a law, it's not easy to become a law, is it?"
Murray: "No."
Murray: but how I hope and pray 
that I will
but today I am still 
just a bill
Unseen Man: "He signed you, Bill, now you're a law."
Murray: "Oh yeah."
