"The Roswell Musical"
Part 1

Disclaimer: I'm not Jason Katims. I'm not Melinda Metz. I'm not anybody else who owns the rights to 'Roswell' and its characters. I am just a simple fan using them for my own amusement. I also don't own the original versions of the songs mine are based on. And I guess Kara and Emily from the "Roswell Elementary" fanfics own the word "dorkbutt" and a couple of other little references I made.
Summary: The first season of 'Roswell' in musical form. Hence the title.
Category: Poetry
Rating: PG
Authors Note: 1) I guess this is technically more like 'The Roswell Opera' since there's nothing really between the songs, unless you count the large gaps in the story. That's why I just put them as different parts. 2) I am so bored. So very very bored. And so addicted to 'Roswell'. Keep that in mind. 3) I really am sorry I posted the beginning on Fan Forum when we're not supposed to. People have that "Real World" story up there, so I thought it was okay.
*Opening number: Roswellian Things* (to the tune of "Summer Nights" from Grease)

MAX: I just stopped in for an Alien Blast
LIZ: I got shot, it happened so fast
MAX: I put my hand on the girl I cared for
LIZ: When I woke up, I wasn't dead anymore
See, for real
It's not a big deal
Just one of those Roswellian things

Tell me more, tell me more
ISABEL: Did anybody see you?
Tell me more, tell me more
MARIA: What on Earth did he do?

LIZ: I figured out he had something to hide
MAX: She saw my cells on a science lab slide
LIZ: He was sweet, for what it's worth
MAX: Kinda told her I was not-of-this-earth
See, for real
It's not a big deal
Just one of those Roswellian things

Tell me more, tell me more
MARIA: Is he made of green slime?
Tell me more, tell me more
MICHAEL: Are you out of your mind?

LIZ: There's no problem, well maybe just one
MAX: She's got a boyfriend and it's Valenti's son
LIZ: He took me out that night after work
MAX: And saw the silver thing under her shirt
See, for real
It's not a big deal
Just one of those Roswellian things

Tell me more, tell me more
ISABEL: Should we pack our bags now?
Tell me more, tell me more
MARIA: Kyle got in your shirt how?

MAX: She saw the sheriff but kept her mouth shut
LIZ: Least I could do since Max saved my butt
MAX: But now the Feds have her bloody dress
LIZ: And there's a dead guy with that mark on his chest
See, for real
It's not a big deal
Just one of those Roswellian things

Whoa whoa whoa
Tell me more, tell me more
MARIA: What makes Martians so mad?
Tell me more, tell me more
MICHAEL: So we might have a Dad?

(music gets all quiet)
LIZ: We were pretty unscathed in the end
MAX: And I'm glad that we can be friends
LIZ: Nothing more, that's sort of a shame
MAX: We're just different and that's not gonna change
Yeah, for real
It's not a big deal
Just- one of- those... Ros-well-i-an... thi-iiiings
