Get'cha Head in the Game
High School Musical Lyrics

Coach said to fake right
The coach instructed me to project a fake move towards the right side

And break left
After deceiving the players on the right side, I should head towards my left side

Watch out for the pick
I should be careful of the opposing team's blocking move

And keep an eye on defense
I should be aware and alert of the opponents' defensive strategies

Gotta run the give and go
I need to pass the ball to one of my team players and move forwards to the designated position

And take the ball to the hole
I need to carry the ball to the scoring area

But don't be afraid
However, I should not be fearful of the challenges ahead

To shoot the outside 'J'
I should try to aim and score a point from the outer part of the designated scoring area

Uh, just keep ya head in the game
It is important to stay focused on the game, without losing concentration

You gotta Get'cha, get'cha head in the game
It is essential to have one's mind in the game, and to stay disciplined and focused on the task at hand

We gotta Get our, get our, get our, get our head in the game
As a team, it is necessary for all of us to concentrate, focus, and strive to work towards the same goal

Let's make sure that we get the rebound
It is important to have control of the ball, and this requires the player to get the ball back if it bounces off in another direction

'Cause when we get it, then the crowd will go wild
If we have control of the ball, then it makes the audience happy and increases our chances of scoring more points

A second chance
If we fail the first time, we can try again

Gotta grab it and go
When the ball bounces off, I should quickly grab the ball and run towards my required position

Maybe this time we'll hit the right notes
If we try again, we could get it right this time and earn more points

Wait a minute
After reflecting on my previous action, I realize that something is amiss

Not the time or place
I should not think of something unrelated to the game in the middle of the game

Get my head in the game
I need to concentrate on the game and not lose focus

Why am I feeling so wrong?
The player is experiencing an internal struggle or conflict

My head's in the game
Even though the characters heart may be elsewhere, the character has switched back to focusing on the game at hand

But my heart's in the song
The character is facing an inner conflict between playing the game and singing the song for the upcoming musical.

She makes this feel so right
The character Troy is feeling passionately connected to his muse, Gabriella and is considering abandoning the game for her.

Should I got for it?
The character is considering going for Gabriella instead of focusing on the game and having his heart and head in the game

I better shake this, yikes!
The player needs to get over the inner conflict and get back to the priorities.
