Please, I seriously need help with this!!
Ok, well I'm planning on singing in my school talent show. I've been planning it since LAST year's talent show and I have everything PERFECT!!! I'm planning on singing Memory from Cats the musical but the only problem is, I was singing for my mom yesterday to see what she thought and she pointed out a rather unwise choice of lyrics, "Touch me, It’s so easy to leave me, all alone with the memory of my days in the sun, if you touch me you'll understand what happiness is, look a new day has begun."
Noted that I'm only in the 8th grade, and the lyrics could lead to vulgar jokes common for 12-15 year old boys. I still have quite a few months until the talent show so technically I am able to change songs still, but I really love memory, and the lyrics in question are supposed to be the loudest part of the song, so I can't just shy off that part. How bad do you think the jokes would be? I'm pretty confident of my ability to ignore stupid comments, but would it be better to just give up and find a new song?
