Lyrics[]
Ellie: (in Katherine's body, spoken)
Mom, your life, is a cakewalk!
(sung)
I got this
I got this
I can see what to do for me to be you
I got this
I'll bake stuff
I can fake like I make stuff like you
I'll have a laugh, have my coffee half-caf
And then yell at the staff on your behalf
I got this
Yeah, I got this
Put a stick up my butt, be quick to say, "What? That! Not this!"
I'm perfection, I don't need your direction at all
Call me a slob or a slackerish blob
I can act like a snob and fool that mob
I got this like it's my job
Katherine: (in Ellie's body, spoken)
Good. You can see what it means to have a job. I'll go to school
(sung)
I got this
Yeah, I got this
Do my hair with some care, I'll primp and prepare
I got this
I'm delighted
Ellie: (in Katherine's body)
It's not right you're excited for school
Katherine: (in Ellie's body)
Scoff if you may, it's a part I can play
It's only a day, and so I say
I got this
Yes! I got this
I'll be bright and demure
Act right 'til I'm sure they bought this
I'll show you
No, nobody will know it's not you
Leave it to me, 'cause how hard can it be?
When I've got my degree and such esprit
I got this, soon you'll see
I think I'm looking forward to my day, to tell the truth
A day amid the energy and innocence of youth
A thousand fellow students, all excited just like me
A community of learners
(spoken)
Really.
(sung)
How hard could it be?
How hard could it be?
Students:
I got this (I got this)
I got this (I got this)
I got this (I got... this)
I got this (I...)
I got this
Katherine: (in Ellie's body, spoken)
Good morning. Good morning
Students: (spoken)
Hey, here comes the List Master!
(sung)
ADAM!
Adam:
Now listen up, you hunters
Here's the rules and here's the deal
The list goes up online at nine
And then The Hunt's for real
Don't schmooze for clues
'Cause I'll refuse
I only do what's right
'Cause I'm List Master Adam
And my word is law tonight
Students:
His word is law tonight
Tonight's the night!
We got this
We got this
We got this
We got this
And we're ready to roll, not quite in control
We got this
List Master, please talk faster
At last The Hunt is here!
Give us the news
And the clue to the clues
Cause I'll die if I lose
I swear I will!
Adam:
I got this
All must chill
Katherine: (in Ellie's body, spoken)
Hannah, I don't like him, do I?
Hannah: (spoken)
No. You LOVE him!
Student: (spoken)
Oh God, it's Savannah!
Savannah:
I got this
I got this
I'm the queen of The Hunt
You're green, you're a grunt
I got this
You'll lose, girl, if you choose to refuse, girl, to see
You shouldn't begin with a war you can't win
'Cause I'm smarter than sin, I'm rich and I'm thin
Savannah and (Students):
Savannah (Look out, it's Savannah)
Vox Humana (She's our Vox Humana)
Is the cock of the walk, I'm talking the top banana
(She's the top banana)
So trust me (Uh-oh)
Watch The Hunt end with just me on top (Top!)
I never fail, no, I always prevail
Ask Harvard and Yale
So weep and wail
I got this
Kiss my tail
Katherine: (in Ellie's body)
I got this
I got this
Ms. Meyers (spoken)
Ellie Blake, where are you supposed to be right now?
Katherine: (in Ellie's body, spoken)
I don't know
Ellie: (in Katherine's body) I got this, I got this
I can see what to do
For me to be you
I got this
I'll bake stuff
I can fake like I make stuff like you
I'll have a laugh, have my coffe half-caff
And then yell at the staff on your behalf
I got this, yeah I got this
Stick a smile on my face
And strut ‘round the place
I got this
I'm perfection
I don't need your direction at all
Call me a slob or a slackerish slob
I can act like a snob and woo that snob
I got this like it's my job
Katherine: (in Ellie's body) I got this, yeah I got this
Do my hair with some care
I'll primp and prepare
I got this
I'm delighted
Ellie: (in Katherine's body) It's not right you're excited for school
Katherine: (in Ellie's body) Scoff if you may, it's a part I can play
And it's only a day and so I say
I got this, yes I got this
I'll be bright and demure
And right ‘til I'm sure
They've bought this
I'll show you
No nobody will know it's not you
Leave it do me ‘cause how hard can it be
When I've got my degree and such esprit
I got this soon you'll see
I think I'm looking forward
To my day to tell the truth
A day amid the energy
And innocence of youth
A thousand fellow students
All excited just like me
A community of learners
Really how hard could it be
How hard could it be
