Les Miserables's rousing Act 1 finale is a fitting finale to the first act, the first chapter of our lives. This song has been parodied many times before (for the last two months of school, for the last week of school, for the last day of school...), but here is my version.

Best friend 1
I have finally won the fight
How can I fall asleep tonight?

STUDENT 1
One day more.

BEST FRIEND 1 & BEST FRIEND 2
In two months, you'll be schools away
With you, I’ve always lived my school days!

STUDENT 2
In college, I’ll be on my own.

BEST FRIEND 1 & BEST FRIEND 2
Will we ever meet again?

STUDENT 2
One more day, and then I’m leaving.

BEST FRIEND 1 & BEST FRIEND 2
So scared to be without you.

STUDENT 2
College life, I’ve never known.

BEST FRIEND 1 & BEST FRIEND 2
And I swear I’m speaking true!

STUDENT 2
Will I ever see you there?

STUDENT 3
One more day before that mass!

rELUCTANT STUDENT
Do I still want to march?

STUDENT 3
At the Mother Rose Auditorium!

rELUCTANT STUDENT
Shall I join my sisters there?

STUDENT 3
When our lines begin to form

rELUCTANT STUDENT
Do I skip it; do I dare?

STUDENT 3
Will you take your seat with me?

ALL
The time is now, the day is here

Student 1
One day more!

TEACHER
One more day to graduation,
Nothing more to ever fear!
I will join these little schoolgirls,
They will wet themselves with tears!

Student 1
One day more!

PARENTS
Watch 'em march and smile,
Catch 'em if they faint,
Never know who’ll be
The next star or saint,
Here’s a little `tip'
When you climb up
Make sure not to trip
Don’t you mess up!

STUDENTS (2 Groups)
1: One day to a new beginning

2: Raise the flag of AC High!

1: Every one of us should sing

2: Every one of us should sing

1: There's a new world for us, waiting

2: There's a new world to be won

ALL
Do you hear the students sing?

RELUCTANT STUDENT
My place is here, I’ll march with you!

Student 1
One day more!

BEST FRIEND 1 & BEST FRIEND 2
I have finally won the fight

STUDENT 2
In college, I’ll be on my own!

BEST FRIEND 1 & BEST FRIEND 2
How can I fall asleep tonight?

UNDERGRADUATE (overlapping)
I will follow in their footsteps
I will follow where they go
I will learn all their lessons,
All the things that they know.

Student 1
One day more!

BEST FRIEND 1 & BEST FRIEND 2
In two months, you'll be schools away

STUDENT 2
College life, I’ve never known!

One more day to graduation
We will be preparing the stage
We'll be ready with the diplomas

PARENTS (overlapping)
Watch 'em marching
Catch 'em as they cry
Not knowing what’s coming
As they say goodbye
