Song #9 Making The Scene
This scene starts with Will and 2-3 of his friends in his car (a convertible) driving on their way to San Francisco. They sing the first verse and chorus in the car...

Lyrics
​
Well we're coming up on summer
It's not like any other
And you know we've partied through a few
So I'm giving you the warning
I'm coming in the morning for you
We'll be hitting the road
We'll be leaving our load
Behind us for a day or two
We're gonna hit all the parties
We'll be rolling in the morning dew
We'll be making the scene
'Cause I know it's what you love to do
I think I see what you mean
'Cause I do too
(They arrive, jump out of the car and the concert is already in high gear. They immediately start mingling and dancing with the large crowd...I envision this being one of the most elaborate choreographed songs in the show. Will and his friend, along with some help from the crowd, sing the second verse and chorus...)
It's a Saturday night and everything is alright
And everybody's in the hit parade
Playing it cool, everybody's got it made in the shade
So nobody's stoppin' 'cause the place is still rockin'
And it's only just a little past two
You're looking around and the carnival clowns look at you
What a crazy scene
And I know it's what you love to do
I think I see what you mean
'Cause I do too
(At the beginning of the solo, Will's eyes lock with a beautiful girl he sees dancing nearby. Everybody on stage is now doing a choreographed dance together during the solo and halfway through it Will and the girl start dancing together within the group dance. Sparks are flying and everybody's having a great time...especially Will and this girl. Now the two of them sing the rest of the song, again with help from the crowd...)
We'll be making the scene
'Cause I know it's what you love to do
I think I see what you mean
'Cause I do too
Well there's no sense in stopping
'Cause the place is still hopping
And the love has got us all this far
With the temperature rising it's time to take a ride in my car
(Will grabs her hand and the two of them run off and jump in his car...)
While the sun is rising I see your eyes
And I know we'll do it all again
It's tomorrow here today
The here and now is the when
We'll be making the scene
'Cause I know it's what you love to do
I think I see what you mean
'Cause I do too
(And they drive off into the sunrise...)
