Finale Lyrics
[Part I: The Wonder Wheel]
[COCHISE]
There it is, the top of the Wonder Wheel
The Warriors are here
[COWGIRL]
Home alive
We made it home alive
[COCHISE]
It's been a long fight just to see the ocean
[MERCY]
I've never seen the ocean
[COCHISE]
The Warriors are here
[COWGIRL & REMBRANDT]
Home alive, we made it home alive
[COCHISE]
But we didn't all make it
[COWGIRL]
Can't stop thinkin' about them—
[REMBRANDT]
What are we gon' do?
[COWGIRL & SWAN]
And how do we carry on without them?
[REMBRANDT]
What are we gon' do?
[SWAN]
Anyone sick of runnin'?
[COWGIRL]
Ajax
[COCHISE]
Thе wild one
[REMBRANDT]
The fighter
[COCHISE]
Thе survivor
[SWAN]
The toughest
[COCHISE]
The one you want in your corner
[COWGIRL]
"Fuck around…"
[COWGIRL & SWAN]
"…Find out"
[REMBRANDT]
Fox
[COCHISE]
The quiet one
[MERCY]
The stunner
[COWGIRL]
So shy—
[SWAN]
Until she wasn't
[REMBRANDT]
That's right!
[COWGIRL]
So brave—
[COCHISE]
Spoke truth to power—
[COCHISE & SWAN]
In our darkest hour
[COWGIRL & REMBRANDT]
Cleon!
[COCHISE]
Our leader
[COCHISE & SWAN]
Who dreamed of something sweeter
[REMBRANDT]
She believed—
[COCHISE]
We believed—
[REMBRANDT & COCHISE]
In Cyrus
[REMBRANDT, COCHISE & COWGIRL]
And if Cyrus were alive, we'd be home free
[MERCY]
I gotta be free
[REMBRANDT, COCHISE & COWGIRL]
And without them here beside us…
[SWAN]
Stay with me
[REMBRANDT, COCHISE & COWGIRL]
…Who are we?
[MERCY]
I gotta be free
[SWAN]
Well, Mercy, you're a Warrior now
[COCHISE]
She is?
[COWGIRL]
She is?
[MERCY]
I am?
[SWAN]
You're in our corner
[COCHISE]
She is
[COWGIRL]
I guess
[MERCY]
But I want more than the corner
[SWAN, spoken]
Mercy
[COCHISE]
Warriors, look alive
[COWGIRL & REMBRANDT]
C'mon c'mon
[COCHISE]
There's a hearse comin' up the avenue
[LUTHER]
Warriors, come out to play-ay
Warriors, come out to play-ay
Warriors, come out to play-ay
Warriors! Come out to play-ay!
[Part II: The Coney Island Shore]
[SWAN]
Stay behind me
I'ma lead 'em to the beach
Beyond the boardwalk
So we're just out of reach
Stay behind me
Let him find me
[LUTHER]
What took you so long?
We're impatient but glad that we waited
[CROPSY]
Yep
[LUTHER]
Wow, you sure are strong
But it looks like just half of you made it
[CROPSY]
Yep
[LUTHER]
So let's see who survives
Here on your hometown boardwalk
Pow, all out of quarters, no more extra lives
I am the ghost and I've hunted you
[SWAN]
Stop
Who the fuck are you and why are you here?
[LUTHER]
Don't you know?
[SWAN]
We're the Warriors
Mess around in Coney, you might disappear—
[LUTHER]
Here we go
Girls, you're gonna die
Don't you know I killed Cyrus?
[SWAN, spoken]
Why?
[LUTHER]
No reason!
I like doing stuff like that!
Shoot the queen!
Blame the girls!
Ride around, watch the world burn!
No emotion
Just a race to the ocean, watch the world burn
See this gun?
Better yet, see me squeeze this gun!
[WARRIORS]
Woah woah stop stop stop
[SWAN]
One on one
[LUTHER]
What?
[SWAN]
Drop the gun—
[MERCY]
—Or you're chicken!
[LUTHER]
Ha! You're crazy, you're dead!
[WARRIORS]
Sand in your eye!
[LUTHER]
Ow!
[WARRIORS]
Punch in your gut!
[
LUTHER shoots his gun as he goes down. SWAN is unscathed.]
[SWAN, spoken]
You missed me! And what?
[WARRIORS]
Gun in the sand!
[LUTHER, spoken]
Get off me!
[SWAN]
There's something you still don't understand
[WARRIORS]
And no one is coming to lend you a hand!
[CROPSY]
Nope!
[SWAN]
No one is coming to lend you a hand
[CROPSY]
Run run run run run!
[SWAN]
Sand in your eye
Hate in your heart
You only know how to break shit apart
Your crew is scared of you
See how it scatters
My crew would die for me
Loyalty matters
[SWAN,
WARRIORS]
We're the Warriors (
What!)
And our story is (
What!)
In our loyalty that's where the glory is (
What!)
[SWAN]
Not in blowing it up but in holding it down
Now
You're going down
You're going down

[
Standing over a cowering LUTHER, SWAN and the WARRIORS look up to see the RIFFS descend onto the beach.]
[RIFFS]
Yeah, right!
And beautiful and black against the white sand and sky
It's the Gramercy Riffs, standin' by
[RIFFS & MASAI]
And beautiful and black against the white sand and sky
It's the Gramercy Riffs, standin' by
[MASAI]
Yeah, hi
It's Masai
'Gainst this white sand and sky
The right hand of Cyrus, 'til right when she died
Then the night filled with cries, horrors, frights, and surprise
And true martyrs, they don't die, but it's so hard to say goodbye
How to honor her persona, wouldn't she want us to try
To pull the truth into the light
Fuck the truce 'n' do what's right
So the troops been on the loose to find where Lucifer hides
Oh, Luther
Scoop him up, you guys
[LUTHER, spoken]
No, no, it was the Warriors!
[RIFFS]
Yeah, right
[LUTHER, spoken]
It wasn't us, it was them (It wasn't us, it was them)
It wasn't us, it was them!
[RIFFS]
Yeah, right
[MASAI, spoken]
You Warriors are good
Real good
[CLEON]
The best
[Part III: When We All Come Home Alive]
[REMBRANDT]
Cleon—
[COWGIRL, spoken]
Oh shit…
[COCHISE]
Cleon—
[MERCY]
Cleon?
[SWAN]
Cleon
[CLEON]
My Warriors are here
Where's Fox?
[SWAN]
The cops
[CLEON]
And Ajax?
[SWAN & COCHISE]
The cops
[CLEON]
Damn
And you?
[MERCY]
Call me Mercy
[SWAN]
She's a Warrior
[CLEON]
Done
[REMBRANDT]
Cleon, how are you—
[REMBRANDT & COCHISE]
Home alive? You made it home alive
[CLEON]
I don't know how I made it
I don't know why I'm still alive and some of us gone
I don't think I'm special
Cyrus was special, how does she live on?
I know this is our corner
[COCHISE]
How do we go on?
[CLEON]
And even though I'm home, I've got a knot in my chest
That I can't untangle
[COCHISE & COWGIRL]
How do we go on?
[CLEON]
I try to find an angle, try to do my best
I know
[CLEON & SWAN]
When I am with you
[MERCY]
I know when I am with you
[CLEON]
The trouble in the world's a little easier to face
I know I can continue
[SWAN & MERCY]
When I am with you
[CLEON]
It's all our turf
This is the sound of something being born
[WARRIORS &
CLEON]
Someday
in the city, we'll be ready for more
We'll wander through the city without goin' to war
We're dancin' on the corners we were battling for (
Coney Island)
When we all come home alive
[CLEON]
This is the sound of something being born
[WARRIORS &
MERCY]
Someday in the city, we won't have to run (
Far beyond the city)
Each time a broken person gets ahold of a gun
Breathe easy every night knowing we'll see the sun (
The city)
When we all come home alive
[CLEON]
This is the sound of something being born
[WARRIORS]
Someday in the city our music will play
We'll wander through the city as light as the day
And the world will know the Warriors are making our way
When we all come home alive (When we all come home)
When we all come home alive (When we all come home)
When we all come home alive
[WARRIORS]
Ah-she-ca! Ah-ah-she-ca! (Yeah)
Ah-she-ca! Ah-ah-she-ca! (Huh)
Ah-she-ca! Ah-ah-she-ca! (Hey)
Warriors, Warriors
[CLEON]
This is the sound of something being born
[
And the sun continues to rise.]
