Hello.
My name is David.
I wrote a song about zombies.
[LAUGHTER] The song is called "day number one."
It's about the main character, David, as he goes through the first 21 days of the apocalypse.
He keeps track of time throughout the apocalypse by listing what day it has been since the
beginning, hence day number one.
The song is the opening number from my musical "155 days," a bigger version of the first
song.
[LAUGHTER] Here is "day number one."

The CDC has released an official statement to the general populace of the United States
of America, asking that any non-certified individual remain indoors at all costs.
Avoid any suspicious characters and report it to the hotline provided.
May God save us all.
♪ Day number one, end of the world - fun's just begun, run!
The apocalypse has a certain smell, lemme tell ya, it's not well!
I shouldn't be laughing but this stuff's funny, Oh my god, this isn't funny.
People are dying, people are not, the world is ending, what a thought!
Just saw some guy eat another guy's leg, that's not okay, that's not okay, that's not okay.
Holy crap, this isn't okay!
Everything's fine, put on a smile and just survive.
No need to cry.
The world's not ending, it's adapting.
Don't say goodbye, try not to die.
Aahhh!
Pick yourself up and run, don't forget it's still day number one.
Who would've thought that the world would end like this?
Grandma's come back to life and not for a kiss.
I think all my friends are dead, that's less than okay.
For all that I know they've been left to decay.
Day number two, man!
Doomsday isn't pretty to view.
Whew!
When the world is ending, you'd think that there'd be something more to do.
cuz I've been crammed up inside my room when the world outside's so exciting and new.
What was that?
Someone's at the door!
I take it back - “There's no one here anymore!”
Oh!
It's survivors, not a zombie horde.
I let them in, and they start to explore.
Their leader is Jerry, he's a jerk.
“Hey what are you doing?
That's my shirt!”
These people, these people just show up at my house and start touching my stuff and It's
annoying.
Don't even get me started on this Jerry guy.
Who's he think he is, walking around like he owns the place and then calls it “The
House”.
What is that?
That's not the name of a safe haven, that's an uncreative attempt at trying to sound serious.
Sometimes - sometimes I just wish a zombie would come up and rip a chunk out of Jerry's
smug looking fa ♪ the end of the world is finally here.
Maybe I don't have to cower in fear.
With all my new friends I have something to do.
What a good way to end day number two.
You can't pretend this isn't great.
Sleep in long and stay up late.
Of course there's no more ice cream but at least we found some cake!
So kick your feet up and relax, we're living our lives to the max.
Our whole lives a summer break.
This is the great escape!
Whoo!
The old world has ended, a new one's begun.
Just because there's zombies doesn't mean there's no fun.
We burned all our money, cuz who's there to pay?
Then it all changed on the twenty first day.
Once more there's knocking, but who could it be?
Can we trust them or can they trust me?
If we had to fight them would we stay or run?
We haven't been this scared since day number, day number one.
Since day number one.
Since day number, day number one!
