Original subtitles

If you close your eyes, and you're lucky

enough, you'll see a shapeless pool of lovely

pale colors hanging in the darkness.

And if you squeeze them tighter, the pool

will begin to take shape, and the colors

will become so vivid that with another squeeze

they must catch on fire.

But just before they catch on fire, just

before they do, you'll see it.

You'll see, you'll

see, it's

you I've been

trying to follow.

Michael, before you go to bed, take your

bath.

And don't forget to take your medicine.

I'm not going to bed, I'm not taking

a bath, and I'm not taking that medicine.

Shit, I've practically grown.

But you're ill, and the doctor said you

had to take it consistently, or else the

problems might continue.

I'm worried about you.

He's not sick, and it's not medicine.

It's Ritalin.

That is medicine.

If you're so worried about me, then why

are you leaving me alone for the weekend?

You won't be alone.

Wendy will be here.

Yeah, the mature one will be here to

make sure you don't violate your probation, Michael.

It's funny, I don't remember my signature being

on his adoption papers.

Wendy!

She's right, you know.

You two can't be flying off to some

Foxtrot competition every other weekend, and then playing

like worried parents.

If you really gave a shit, you'd stick

around more.

John, you are 23 years old.

You have no job.

You dropped out of the community college, and

you essentially stay in this rent-free home

to play your internet video games all day

and night.

I'd say my main obligation as a parent

has been met.

Feel free to fly out of the nest

any time.

Oh, trust me, I'm working on it.

My internet business is going to be huge,

and you are going to regret everything.

Sometimes I already do.

Excuse me, Mrs. Darling.

I am happy to inform you that you

have become the proud mother of an anemic

Hungarian orphan child.

Finally, the chance to experience nature's greatest miracle.

The miracle of childbirth.

It is an adoption, ma'am.

Still, the endless paperwork.

I feel as if I've been in labor

for years.

Congratulations.

And you, Mr. Darling, I'm happy to inform

you you're now a proud father.

Is it a boy or a girl?

A boy.

Well, then he'll be the sports star that

I never was.

What are you two doing?

We're doing an act, Mother.

We're playing at being you and father.

Kids!

Shut the hell up!

There you are, dear.

What's the matter?

This goddamn tie.

It won't tie.

Ties are on the bedpost, but it won't

tie around my goddamn neck.

Well, where's Liza?

Downstairs, confirming our flight.

Is there a problem?

Yes, the problem is this tie.

If this tie won't tie around my neck,

we are not going to the competition tonight.

And if we miss the dance tonight, we

won't go to Tampa for the nationals, and

we can kiss any chance of a title,

any chance of endorsements goodbye.

And if all that falls apart, well, then

we'll all star.

And those children will be thrown out in

the streets.

I am not a child.

I can take care of myself.

Then move out already.

Don't worry about me.

I'm leaving for college.

I wasn't talking to you.

A college that's very far away.

And I'm going to major in social services

and human development so I can save children

like me from childhoods like mine.

Hey, shut the hell up!

We gave you everything.

Gymnastics lessons for four months is not everything.

There you are.

All set.

That was difficult.

You constantly bitch at me about being self

-reliant.

And Mr. Darling can't even tie his own

necktie.

What kind of model are you setting up

here?

Shut the hell up!

I can't take another minute of this.

This is too much.

And Wendy, make sure Michael takes his medicine

and try to keep him from breaking his

curfew.

And this is for you too, John.

We've noted the mileage on the Jag's odometer,

and we've hidden the key.

So don't even think about it.

Now, we'll be gone all weekend.

So make sure Nana gets fed too.

Isn't that Liza's job?

I mean, what are they paying Liza to

do?

They're paying her to do Michael.

John, seriously.

You have this personal assistant that gets your

film developed and fills your propane tank for

parties.

And as I recall, you originally hired her

to keep an eye on Michael.

Why is Liza always getting paid for what

ends up being my responsibility?

Because you are a responsible young woman.

Well, you just watch.

By the time you get back from your

cha-cha talent show, I'm going to have

addictions and a record.

Maybe I'll be pregnant.

Wendy.

I'm getting out of this house.

Don't be ridiculous.

You're too level-headed for that nonsense.

There's no reward in being the level-headed

one.

Absolutely no reward.

I can be crazy.

Watch.

What about Nana?

Maybe we should leave her in this weekend.

Are you kidding?

The house will be destroyed.

You know, we really should stop adopting things.

George, I think we should keep her in

and I'll tell you why.

Last night when I was upstairs, I saw

a face at the window.

It was the face of a boy and

he was trying to get in.

A face at the window that high up?

I doubt it.

I distinctly saw him.

But I haven't told you everything.

I'm afraid to.

Why?

Oh, you'll think it's just another one of

my hallucinations.

Or you'll think I've been drinking.

What is it?

When I looked out the window yesterday, there

was this...

I don't know how to describe it.

There was this tiny little girl with lights

in her hair and silk wings.

And she was darting about like she was

on some sort of stimulant.

Mary, I don't have time to listen to

one of your stories.

We have to go.

Sorry it took so long.

And now you're confirmed on the red eye,

but you have to leave the competition by

10.30. And if we don't?

Just try to make it.

But if we don't?

Well, then you probably spent too much time

asking me what would happen if you don't

make it.

Now, I won't be here Monday, but I

will be by Tuesday.

Have a good time.

Oh, and the gardener called and said he

didn't get paid.

I set the check.

Are you sure?

You've been taking quite a few days off

lately.

I'll handle it.

Have a good time.

Hope you break your legs.

Get out of the bottle.

What do you think they put up?

Well, fuck if I know.

You look around for the keys.

Try back there.

Hey, boy.

Why are you crying?

Fed you.

You scared me.

What's your name?

My name is Wendy Moira Angela Darling.

What's your name?

Peter Pan.

That's it?

Yeah.

That's a shame.

That's no big deal.

Were you looking for these?

Yeah, I was looking for them.

I found them on the ground out back

and I held on to them.

I've seen you coming back looking for them.

Why didn't you just knock on the door

and ask for them?

I don't get along well with rich people.

Adults.

Where do you live?

Second start of the ride and straight on

till morning.

Cut the bullshit and tell me where you

live.

That's where I live.

That's a funny address.

No, it ain't.

That's where you get your mail.

Don't get mail.

But your mother gets mail.

Don't have a mother.

Don't touch me.

I was just going to give you your

keys back.

Oh.

Why can't I touch you if I wanted

to?

Nobody touches me.

Why not?

They only touch me if I let them.

Are you going to give me my keys

or not?

This is your car.

It's tight, huh?

Somebody should wash it.

It's a fucking car.

Where's your car?

How old are you?

I don't know.

I lost track.

I'm young.

I ran away from home when I was

younger.

Ran away?

Why?

I heard my parents talking about you.

My parents were talking about what they wanted

me to be when I grew up.

They had all these hopes and dreams for

who I'd turn out to be.

And I didn't want that.

Then my old man bailed and my mom

just freaked out.

So I ran away.

Got on a bus and now I live

here.

Where exactly do you live?

I live among the fairies.

So you're gay?

Hell no.

I'm pansexual.

What does that mean?

It means I like sex.

And you like to hang out with fairies?

Yeah.

They're nearly all dead now.

You see, Wendy, when the first child laughed

for the very first time, that laugh broke

into like a million little pieces and they

all went skipping about.

And that was the beginning of fairies.

We all grow up so fast nowadays and

everyone takes everything so fucking seriously.

And they start to lose their imagination and

they start to believe that there are no

strange and fantastic and beautiful things.

Every time someone says, I don't believe in

fairies, like a fairy that falls down dead.

They overdose or get sick.

It's like they were never there.

Do you believe in fairies?

I'm still trying to figure out how your

keys got in our yard.

We were driving through the neighborhood and our

car ran out of gas.

Tink got pissed and threw him over the

fence.

We got gas in it, then we didn't

have the keys.

Who's Tink?

Tinkerbell.

She's a fairy.

You silly ass.

You left me alone in the model home.

Tink, this is Wendy.

Nice to meet you.

She's not very polite.

So where are you guys going now?

Home.

I still don't know where that is.

We live with the lost boys.

Who are they?

Guys like me.

Runaways.

We stay in Neverland.

We found a place and we stay there.

Neverland?

What's that?

You don't know about Neverland?

No.

Maps in my head.

Has zigzag lines with splashes of color here

and there.

You are so strange.

Yeah, well, I think you're a big ugly

girl and you should mind your own fucking

business.

Oh, and if you think you're gonna hang

out with us tonight, you're wrong.

Peter's with me.

Tink, you know you're not my fairy.

Oh, why can't I be your fairy?

Because I'm a gentleman and you are definitely

not a lady.

I'm gonna get a bottle for the road.

We just got you a new bottle.

Yeah, well, we've been here three hours.

I'm sure the boys have drank it by

now.

What's Neverland like?

It's fucking tight.

Like everything cool in just this one place.

And there's no bad stuff like school or

church or fathers or braces.

There's tons of rides.

Sounds like fun.

Yeah.

It gets lonely sometimes.

But then you just get over it, you

know?

Kiss?

You know what a kiss is, don't you?

Don't touch him.

Tink, get in the fucking car.

I will do this every time you try

to kiss me, you silly ass.

You should come with us.

Are you sure?

What about her?

She'll get over it.

She's just a little fucked in the head.

But can I bring my brothers too?

I mean, I won't know anybody.

No, they can come.

We'll all go.

We'll fly there.

We'll fly.

I'll show you.

I'll show you how you can jump on

the wind's back and then away we'll go.

You know, Wendy, when you're out there sleeping

in your silly little bed, you might be

flying around with me saying funny things to

the stars.

John, come here!

This guy's gonna teach us how to fly!

What?

You just think lovely, wonderful thoughts and they

lift you up in the air.

And you need the fairy dust.

What's that shit?

It's fairy dust.

Sweet.

I don't think you can handle it.

Why not?

There are pirates.

Pirates?

What kind of pirates?

I call them Bob pirates.

Peter!

And Indians and mermaids.

How do we get there?

Second star to the right and straight on

till morning.

Oh my god, Wendy's hot!

I am not that high.

Well, you're not making any sense.

You don't have to.

I say whatever comes into my head and

there's nobody around to tell me that I'm

wrong or stupid.

You try.

Try what?

Saying whatever comes into your head.

Okay.

Um, I see a flamingo flying over a

lagoon.

I see a lagoon flying over a flamingo.

Now you get it.

I see a ship and a cave and

a mysterious river.

It will be such an adventure.

You know what I see?

What?

What?

I see a man with a hook.

And this man with the hook is the

worst of them all.

What's he like?

Is he big?

Yeah, he's big.

But not as big as he was.

What do you mean?

Well, he did a lot of drugs.

Is he real?

Terribly real.

The hook?

Tell us about the hook.

He's got an iron hook that hangs from

a beam down below.

And he strings people from it.

Boys.

He does this in Neverland?

In a dungeon underground.

And this pirate wants to string me from

his hook most of all.

But there's one thing you gotta promise me.

If we run into hook, and even if

he gets violent, you gotta leave him to

me.

Yeah.

Okay.

Okay.

You still wanna go?

Yeah.

Yes.

Then let's fly.

I don't

know, but he's been gone for almost six

hours now.

God, I wish he'd get back.

He left some of the stinkiest blood in

this car, and I don't wanna play with

him.

Right on.

Dude, I get freaked out when Peter hasn't

come back for a while.

Those pirates, they kind of make me nervous.

And Peter knows how to deal with them

the best.

Well, I'm not scared of those fags.

I'm not scared of shit.

I just want him to bring back the

weed.

Last night, I dreamt the prince found Cinderella.

Come on!

Dude, you are so queer.

One thing I remember about Minnesota, though, one

thing I miss most about it, I guess,

is when I was younger, my mommy used

to read me Cinderella.

I saw you as Cinderella.

You are Cinderella.

Attention, adventurers.

Tiger Lily's Native American Revue will begin in

just 15 minutes.

Ha ha!

Hey, guys.

We can't sit here talking to this cute

little skitter rat.

Yeah, she's gonna have to find a babysitter

from now on, and it's not gonna be

us.

Nazzy?

Yeah, we fed her a churro in, like,

Cherry Icy Freezer around four o'clock.

That doesn't sound too healthy.

It didn't sound bad.

It's fucking ice and juice.

No, the churro isn't healthy.

Hey, hey, hey!

Let's go on the log rammer.

Right on.

Hey, we can't go on any rides with

this kid.

Yeah.

I'm just gonna use my chin to lock

him in the bike rack.

You ever seen Mama?

Come on over here.

What's it do to Mama?

What?

You're gonna hang out right here?

She'll be here in just one minute.

Hold him down.

I'm glad I'm not a parent.

Kids fucking suck.

Go, go, go!

Captain, I saw them.

Put your pistol away, Smee.

You're causing a disturbance.

It was a few of those boys you

warned.

Shall I after him?

Tickle him with Johnny Corkscrew?

Johnny's a silent fellow.

Was Peter with them?

No.

I could get one or two, but I'd

sure like to mischief all the seven.

Especially Peter Pan.

Hang him from the hook.

Oh, yes.

I've waited a long time to shake hands

with him with this.

I'll tear him.

I've often heard you say that your hook

is worth a score of hands.

For combing your hair and other homely uses.

If I was a mother, I'd pray my

children were born with a hook like this.

I mean, I know it's just a costume,

but I've always said, Smee, you've really got

to commit to the role.

You see, at Neverland, I'm just not the

head of maintenance, and you're not just part

of the crew.

We're putting on a show for these guests,

and we are the cast members.

We have to provide the magic and the

happiness.

And those little hoodlums running around with their

ecstasy and their closed cigarettes, they're ruining our

image as the friendliest, funnest, cleanest, happiest place

in the world.

Attention Neverland adventurers.

Will the parents of a small boy with

spiked hair and leather bracelets please report to

Lost and Found.

Thank you.

There you are, Hook.

I've been calling you since last Thursday.

Oh, for God's sake, put your head back

on.

You're on stage.

The guests can see you.

I can't talk to you with my head

on.

I just wanted you to know, I had

a really good time the other night, and

I was, you know, wondering when we could

do it again.

Get it on, fool.

I know what's been going on with you

and some of the other guys, you know,

what goes on when the park's closed, right?

How can I get in on some of

that action?

If you need to talk to me, you

can make an appointment through cast member services.

Smee and I are in the middle of

a meeting.

So if you'll excuse me.

I can keep a secret.

Just let me in on some of the

fun.

Not now.

I'm very busy.

I can keep a secret!

You've lately noticed a strange fear of crocodiles.

Not all crocodiles.

That one crocodile.

I was a little out of sorts one

night.

A little inebriated, maybe.

And, well, that brute liked the little bit

I gave him so much that he's since

been following me all around the park, from

land to land, from sea to sea, licking

his lips for the rest of me.

I'm considering a restraining order.

I would crawl through the sewers of Neverland

if I could phone Tiger Lily.

Tiger Lily is a man.

No, she's not.

Men don't have tits that nice.

Dude, they've been doing breast implants since before

we were born.

I guess he took a girl.

I don't give a shit if they're fake.

Ah, would you just let me enjoy the

fucker's show already?

I knew you guys would be here.

Where's Peter?

He's going back to the hideout.

Did you get his car?

Yeah.

Oh, and he's brought someone along.

What's his name?

It's a girl.

She's such a bird.

Her name is Wendy.

Can you believe that?

The Wendy bird.

Peter's actually, like, so annoyed with her, she

practically invited him to come along.

Welcome, adventurers, to Neverland theme amusement park's big

time theater.

Please be reminded that food and drink are

not allowed in the auditorium, and flash photography

is strictly prohibited during the performance.

Now, sit back, relax, and enjoy Neverland's tribute

to Indian culture and custom.

Tiger Lily's Native American review.

Ladies and gentlemen, Indian warriors and Indian maidens,

Neverland proudly presents the sexiest squash in Sacajawea,

Miss Tiger Lily.

Crazy horse.

can always find a break To point his

arrow my way I catch the man in

a lot of space Yeah, a few more

square feet and it'd be almost as big

family with a real nice place, but she's

gonna hang with us tonight You know any

stories?

I know lots of stories Do you know

Cinderella?

Dude, you're embarrassing me Yeah, I know Cinderella

Would you tell me the story of Cinderella?

She's not your fucking mother, okay?

Peter, it's okay Well, I think Wendy should

be the mother No, seriously, we could just

kick back and listen to stories and shit

Right, huh?

Okay Wendy's the mother We have a mother

Peter, you can be the father Hey, I'm

nobody's father I ain't even gonna pretend to

be nobody's father That's not what Tate said

Peter, it was just a joke What happened

to your imagination?

Hey, come on, Wendy Let me show you

around Let's leave these losers to jerk each

other off John, Michael, you wanna come?

I'm cool You know, I think that we're

gonna kick it here for a while Okay,

weed They're just strippers, man Strippers with weed?

Hey, is Peter here?

Did somebody order chicken?

Well, we just thought Peter was around here,

and...

Who are the new ones behind you?

Uh, that's John and Michael, they're friends of

Peter's Is that a guy or a girl?

That's an Indian Did you all see the

show?

A thousand times It's based on a rain

dance that was done in a war War,

man I'm an 8th Cherokee I'm an 8th

everything I can see that So, you're a

friend of Peter's Peter Pan saved my life

I was, um, sexually assaulted here in Neverland

one night Have you heard the story?

No Oh, well, then have a seat We

smoke and peace, bye Peace, bye So, I'm

going to show you something All right What

are you going to show me?

Close your eyes What?

Close your eyes, don't look Wait a minute,

guide me If you close your eyes and

you're lucky enough You'll see a pool of

cool colors hanging in the darkness If you

squeeze tighter, the pool begins to take shape

And the colors become so bright, it's like

with one more squeeze They're going to catch

on fire But just before they do, right

before they catch on fire Then you'll see

it Open your eyes, Wendy It's

a carousel I know that It's incredible I

know See, you don't have anything like this

in your house, huh?

No, no, we don't One day I'm going

to be so rich I'm going to have

one of these in the backyard of my

mansion I'm going to have parties And my

friends are going to come over And we're

just going to hang out and get wasted

And spin around all night This thing is

a trip when you're really wasted, Wendy It's

a fucking trip This is a trip You

like it?

I like it So,

what do you want to be?

Like when you get older It seems like

you have all these big dreams And I

was wondering what you wanted to be Rich

That's good But I mean, what are you

going to do to get rich?

For a career, I mean Oh, you mean

like a job?

Sort of Yeah, I'm no dumb shit, Wendy

I'm not going to have to sit behind

some desk And do a bunch of stupid

crap to do what I want What's your

plan?

Plan?

You know what?

I have been here before I just didn't

know what Neverland was when you said it

You've been here before?

Once in the 10th grade With my boyfriend

Oh, you have a boyfriend No Where's your

boyfriend tonight?

He's dead What happened?

I don't know It's hard to explain You

have all these plans All these big dreams,

I guess But I don't know He was

either too weak or too lazy to keep

trying That sucks It doesn't bother me as

much as it used to Besides, I have

my own dreams, my own plans What's your

plan?

I plan to stop dreaming so much Come

on, let's get in the car, son I

was young once There was a time when

I had the future at my fingertips And

now Now the future has me by the

balls Did I ever tell you I studied

at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts in

London years ago?

They said I could have been another Olivier

Did I ever tell you that's me?

As I was saying, I was young once

So it's not that I don't understand that

Peter and these boys just want to have

a nice time They just can't have their

good times at the expense of Neverland's image

Now, there's clear evidence that these boys have

found some area inside the park In a

backstage area where they actually live They're spending

the night here Which makes them not only

privy to many of the secrets Many of

the secrets that make Neverland one of the

premier tourist attractions in the area These boys

are leaving Neverland open to incredible lawsuits Now,

I didn't get promoted to Director of Maintenance

By sitting around and letting teenage boys destroy

this establishment I got to this position by

giving a damn And I expect all of

you to give a damn too Many of

you are close personal friends of mine We

socialize together Some of you I met online

or through one circumstance or another That's why

I hired you And it's our job to

clear the stage of these hooligans What dark

and devious hole have these young boys crawled

into?

It's our job to find out Excuse me

Who let you in here?

Well, there are so many ways to get

around Neverland You're just not small enough to

have discovered them all Smee, show her out

It's the little sprite who runs with the

boys, Captain Oh, yes It is I know

where the boys hide I can show you

where to find Peter Pan Well,

young lady Lead the way Okay, what about

this guy with the hook?

What about him?

He's real Look, Wendy, everything's real, even the

guy with the hook Tell me about him

He hates me and the guys He's old

and he doesn't want anyone to have any

fun I see Look, Wendy, I always want

to be young and happy, you know?

And I think everyone else wants that But

people, they're assholes, you know?

They get caught in these traps They grow

up, they get all these stupid responsibilities And

that's just not gonna happen to me But

that's up to you Sometimes I get lonely

Think about what it'd be like to have

a family Have everything organized So I didn't

have to worry, you know, about...

About some of the shit that goes down

around here But it's scary, you know?

What is?

Nothing Hey,

Wendy Yes, Peter?

It's just pretend, isn't it?

That I'm their father and you're their mother

Peter, of course it is But we can

pretend like they're ours, Peter Yours and mine

But they're not, really No, not if you

don't wish it I don't You know,

what are your exact feelings for me?

What do you mean?

Like, how do you see me?

I don't know You're how a mother should

be I guess the guys are right I

thought so It's so strange Tinkers the same

way I know chicks want me, but I

told you I'm not gonna get caught up

into that You're awfully arrogant Don't trip, Wendy

Can't help it sometimes I'm just happy with

myself Yeah, you're pleased with yourself now But

what happens when you get older and you're

not so good looking?

What happens when you get too old for

Neverland?

What happens when Neverland closes down?

We stay here even when it's closed We've

got the hideout, remember?

I mean when this place closes down Years

from now when this is just a parking

lot or something else The other one with

the imagination Everything closes down eventually Everything changes

People change People grow up And there'll be

a new Neverland With new fairies and pirates

and Indians and...

Peter!

What?

You are going to go to the grave

believing that To die would be a great

adventure So Peter got in somehow And Hook

was exposed and preparing to attack me Now

Peter grabbed one of the weapons that Hook

has laying everywhere and used it He hammered

him pretty good down there And that's the

real reason they call him Hook I think

Peter actually broke the man's equipment, shall we

say You know, he says it's all about

the show He acts like he's so by

the book and above board But he's really

a pervert I mean he does all his

kinky shit right here in Neverland What are

you talking about?

Neverland can be real scary He'll get you

too He will, if you stay here long

enough He'll get you Okay, why doesn't anybody

do anything about this?

Why doesn't somebody say something?

It's Wendy Wendy, tell us the story that

you promised Where have you two been?

We've been around Was he good, Wendy?

I was great Tell the story, tell the

story I think my stories are too graphic

for the little boys Why don't you come

tone things down a little?

All right Um, once upon a time there

was a gentleman I wish it was a

lady There was a lady also Right, all

right Be quiet There was a lady also,

okay And her name was Mrs. Darling And

her husband was Mr. Darling Oh, I think

I know these people The Darlings were married

And they adopted three ethnic children So that

they could appear fashionable to their high society

friends Which wasn't all that high of a

society But don't tell that to the Darlings

Or else they'll think you're being rude Anyway,

um, Mr. Darling was a colossal asshole Who

was always angry with the kids or the

dog and everything And Mrs. Darling was always

on scotch or painkillers or both So the

children decided to fly away So when a

boy they hardly knew came to their house

They flew away to Neverland where the lost

boys are Ha, I knew that was gonna

happen Don't ask me how, I just knew

Was one of the lost boys like me?

He was exactly like you I'm in the

story Guys, I'm in the story Fucking famous

Shut the hell up But

as careless and self-obsessed as the Darlings

were The children soon realized that Maybe the

grass wasn't that much greener in Neverland or

anywhere else I guess everyone's living in their

own world wherever you go And maybe there

isn't some perfect place where everything is wonderful

all the time Maybe Neverland is all in

your mind And so the kids decided to

go home Why did they go back home?

Well, I think that they understand that everyone

has to grow up eventually And everyone has

to assume responsibility for their own actions And

that nobody can live in a fantasy world

forever And that no matter what, the doors

to their home would always be open to

them With a mother and a father too

And even though it isn't perfect, it is

safe and it is something And it really

isn't all that bad Or at least it

could be worse You're wrong You're wrong about

mothers and families and homes and all that

shit I used to think like you did

And after I ran away, I tried going

back But my mother had forgotten all about

me She'd moved away You're full of shit

Are you sure all mothers are like that,

Peter?

Maybe it was just your mother And maybe

something happened to her Yeah, my mother, their

mothers Ask any of these guys and they'll

tell you everything They're not all rich and

perfect You've got a real mature attitude, Renita

I'm sorry, but around here, that bullshit doesn't

fly You have no idea what reality is

This is reality This is your reality I

understand what you're saying, Peter But I just

think that Just because they might not have

had the best families or whatever That they're

getting old enough to at least parent themselves

So they don't end up living in some

dirty cave in an amusement park I mean,

there are places that you can go for

help For a safe place to stay That's

safer than this This is pretend, Peter This

is just pretend You can't pretend Then don't

pretend to be my fucking mother I just

wanted to help Come on, you guys, let's

go We don't want you to go You

guys, you know that if you want to

come with me You can stay at my

house for a few days I can help

you find places to stay and get help

and stuff If you want, if you're tired

of all this Can we go, Peter?

I'm not in charge of you guys You

can do whatever the fuck you want You

can go I don't give a shit I

want to go Can I take a shower

at your house?

We have real food and it's clean At

our house, we have video games And you

don't have to pay for them Right on

You want to go?

Come on, Peter Peter, come with us No

Why not?

I just want to stay here And I

always want to be a kid and have

fun You know, you can't do that You

know, you guys go You do all that

outreach shelter bullshit I've done that shit before

I know exactly what she's talking about They

have you clean up your act for about

a year While you're working at the fast

food place Or painting houses Or whatever bullshit

they have you do For not even enough

money to survive I'm just going to stay

here and have a good time So you

guys go Have a blast You

think that you're high But your star is

falling fast Down to this

corner I remember the sweet Bitter taste

in my mouth I remember saying I never

let it go I remember the sweet Can't

believe it's returned Chewing down my bite Living

with a bone No, won't you leave me

alone How

quiet it is down here Up above the

children spin on the teacups And bump each

other in the bumper cars But down here

Nothing sounds alive Now is the hour when

most children will be leaving Off to their

homes Where they'll sleep in their beds Their

lips stained with toothpaste Their eyes closed To

the horrors and pleasures That await them tomorrow

morning Compare them with the boys down here

All sullen and desperate For just one more

hit at the pipe None of these boys

know love None of these boys love me

They despise me They all despise me And

they love Peter Pan The youth, the beauty,

the boundless energy The leader And I'm just

some old janitor to them A curiosity that

can't even attract the curious A joke that's

been told too many times In their little

hideaway But Peter Pan, even as you mock

me today You will undoubtedly become me tomorrow

Are all the prisoners chained so that they

can't fly away?

They are So

now then, boys And lady Are you ready

for some fun?

A little game, perhaps Where the tables are

turned And I get to ruin your pathetic

lives for the night What about their parents?

What parents?

These children have no parents No one cares

if they live or die No one cares

what happens to them The girl with the

new ones Maybe they have someone looking out

for them They look like all the rest

to me Aye, sir I

could use a couple cabin boys tonight Which

of you is it to be?

Anyone want to be a pirate?

You see, sir I don't think my mother,

Wendy, would want me to be a pirate

Stow the gab, boy You, boy You

look as if you still had a little

pluck left in you Did you ever want

to be a pirate?

Me heartache Did you mean a sailing the

seven seas pirate?

Or more of a janitor pirate in Neverland

like you?

That seals your doom Smee, run upstairs and

fetch the toys Run!

Where are they?

They're gone They just left?

They took them What?

Hook and the pirates, they took them all

Wendy too?

I thought they'd just kick them out, you

know I didn't think they'd actually Oh, shit

I told him where we were I looked

on the blueprint and I went to the

crawlspace to Hook's dungeon And I told him

everything Don't go You blew it, Tink, all

right?

That guy's insane, he's a fucking freak I

just made a fucking mistake, big deal We

both made a lot of fucking mistakes, so

what?

We're always making mistakes You got that right

It won't matter anymore, anyway I'll be dead

soon, anyway Come on, with the drama already

It's not drama, Peter It's real I

drank it all And I took all the

fairy dust too You did not Wanna bet?

Goddammit, what's the matter with you, huh?

Why do we have to be so fucking

selfish?

I don't care, you don't have to worry

about me bothering you You want me to

buy into this shit?

Just get your act together You really don't

care Of course I do, but right now,

you can't be the center of attention, okay?

I can barely hear you It'll get well

again if only you believed Only you believed

in me You got so serious when she

came around It's not like you're getting so

serious about things And now you're so worried,

and you never worried about me that way

I just wanna make sure they're okay You

wanna make sure you're okay You're thinking about

Neverland, and you're thinking about growing up And

just leaving our life together It's not our

life together Wendy was talking to me, and

she's got a point Maybe this is all

bullshit Maybe it's time for me to grow

up Oh, no, and stop believing in fairies

What's gonna happen to me, Tink?

I'm dying, and all you can think about

is what's gonna happen to you Peter, you're

young Just enjoy your youth I mean, that

girl, she's got money, she's got a family

She has a future, but what do we

have?

None of that Yeah, but we have something

that they don't have Those people with their

stupid, stupid responsibilities We have something better What's

that?

We believe in fairies You believe

in fairies, Peter?

If you believe, just clap your hands Don't

let me die Are

we to die?

From pleasure Never was there luck on a

pirate ship With a woman aboard There's

no one who will save you now, Missy

There is one Who said that?

So, finally, I've got it You've led the

new girl and these boys to run amuck

in the park Trashing the place with your

litter Harassing innocent guests Stinking up Neverland with

your clove cigarettes And all the while laughing

at me and my men So, this is

your doing It's all my doing Proud and

insolent youth Prepare to meet thy doom Who

and what art thou?

Are you joy?

Are you freedom?

Are you that little bird that has broken

out of the egg?

Oh You

wanna come in?

Come in, I'll make you something Would I

have to go to school?

Huh?

If I come in and be who you

want me to be, would I have to

go to school?

I wanna change you, I wanna help you

You wanna help me change?

Yeah If I do what you want me

to do, would I have to go to

school?

Maybe Probably eventually And get a boring job?

You could have a career, some people really

like what they do Soon I'd be a

man, I'd be just like everyone else You'd

still be special I just don't wanna go

to school I wanna learn about algebra and

stupid crap that doesn't count for anything I

don't wanna get bald and get old and

grow a beard and all that I think

you'd look really good in a beard But

I don't want that That'd be like giving

up They'll be looking for you I don't

care So what, you're just gonna go back

to Neverland and live in that little hole

alone?

I'll live with Who?

I'll live with the fairies and we'll live

up high in the trees and Peter, there

are no fairies There's always fairies, there's young

ones Because when the first baby laughed for

the very first time That laugh broke into

like a million little pieces That was the

beginning of fairies And the blue ones are

boys and the pink ones are girls Peter,

please don't give up Wait, you Maybe you

could come with me I was hoping you

could come with me Is that why you

waited here this long?

You thought I was gonna fly away with

you again?

Why not?

Hey boy Why are you crying?

My name's Peter Pan Yeah, I know I

just came to get my mother to take

a look You really do need a mother,

you know Peter, maybe there'll be another girl

Someone who's younger than me I really wish

I could go with you I guess you

can't I guess you're just an asshole like

everyone else Peter Your laugh is

infectious And if I didn't really know you

I might start laughing too But you know

the shame of the whole thing Is that

you're real You're not some character in a

fairy tale And you're not some idealization of

everlasting youth You're just a guy who will

never ever grow up You're like a boy

that girls like when they're teenagers Or a

man who can't even tie his own tie

You're just a guy who's too weak or

too lazy to get his life together When

someone is standing right in front of them

that can help But I'm not gonna help

I'm not gonna be your mother And I'm

not gonna build a little nest for you

and watch you fly away Because I can't

I'm just too old for that sort of

thing Yeah, I guess you're just

too grown up, Wendy If you close your

eyes and you're lucky enough You'll see a

shapeless pool of lovely pale colors Hanging in

the darkness And if you squeeze them tighter

The pool will begin to take shape And

the colors will become so vivid That with

another squeeze They must catch on fire But

just before they catch on fire Just before

they do You'll see it You'll see a

pirate And an Indian And a fairy And

the boy who refused to grow up A

boy for whom every moment that passes feels

like a long time ago And when you

look at him long enough You might see

his hair becoming white Or you might notice

that the youthful light in his eye Is

only just a light from a carousel And

the light from the carousel Is only just

a light hanging in the darkness Somewhere In

a story A story about a place you

believed in A long time ago When you

were young And happy And heartless you
