Emojiland the Musical - The Progress Bar Lyrics

INFORMATION DESK PERSON: (spoken)
Attention Emojiland!
Information desk person here, live on location outside the Progress Bar,
Where Emojis of all shapes
And sizes have come together to count down the moments
And count up the percentage on the download
And installation of what may be a major software update.

With me now is one of tonight's attendees.
Face with rolling eyes, can you tell us how you're feeling?

FACE WITH ROLLING EYES: (spoken)
I couldn't be more excited.

INFORMATION DESK PERSON: (spoken)
Well, there you have it, folks!
The anticipation couldn't be higher as we prepare to ring in Update 5.0!

EMOJIS:
Oh, oh

INFORMATION DESK PERSON: (spoken)
Ten percent!

EMOJIS:
Another download, bringin' in
Another update
So everybody's ringin' in
Gonna stay up late
With streamers streamin' everywhere
The night'll go till
The installation's ready to install and ?.....

Sun comes up on a brand new day
We're gonna raise our cup
To that digital display
That's sayin'

We're making progress
I know we are
We're making progress on the progress bar
We're making progress
We're gonna go far
We're making progress on the progress bar
At the progress bar

INFORMATION DESK PERSON: (spoken)
Twenty-five percent!

POLICE OFFICER:
Can't help but get emotional
When I start thinking
Hey, emoji, emoji-nal!
It's so profound when you've been drinkin'

SMIZE:
So much hope that change is possible
Almost makes you believe it

GUARDSMAN: (spoken)
Tomorrow I'll be even more unstoppable
So let's update it

EMOJIS:
'Cause when the phone restarts
And it's 5.0
We'll keep open hearts
As we learn and as we grow

GUARDSMAN:
It's true, yo

EMOJIS:
We're making progress
I know we are
We're making progress on the progress bar
We're making progress
We're gonna go far
We're making progress on the progress bar

INFORMATION DESK PERSON: (spoken)
Seventy-five percent!

PRINCESS: (spoken)
Emojis! As we approach the moment of restart,
I wish you a happy update
And remind you all that you won't wanna mess with Princess in version 5.0
Any more than you have in 4.0. Okay, that's all, bye-bye.

EMOJIS:
The update comes but once a year
Emojis new will soon appear
And so we trust, and shall not fear
The code

INFORMATION DESK PERSON: (spoken)
Here we go!

EMOJIS: (spoken)
91...
92...
93...
94...
95...
96...
97...
98...
99...
100!
Restart!

Emojiland the Musical Lyrics

It's Just so Great to Be Alive
Sad on the Inside
Princess Is a Bitch
The Progress Bar
Zeros & Ones
Cross My Bones
New Crown in Town
Work Together
Stand For
Thank Me Now
Firewall Ball
Pile of Poo
Virus
A Thousand More Words
Anyway
Start Again
It's Just so Great to Be Alive (Reprise)
