J2 Chaos Performance


        Running, jumping, cheering, and screaming,

                    Handshakes and hugs, then set,

                         “Ding, ding, this is Chaos!

     It’s in the name so you know we bring it every time,

         Causin’ chaos if a hater steppin’ out of line…”

        “One up two! Three.. five, hands six, 7, hands 8,

                    One, clean three, move five, six…”

                      Tumbling, dancing, and facials,

             Moving to basket tosses and elite stunts,

                          One, two, hit three! Four!

    Hit and finish ends: catch five, leg seven, back one,     

                             two, three, clean five! 

    More tumbling, with jumps and dance, transitioning       

                                     into pyramid,

          “We the main players, causin’ straight chaos!”

                           One, three, and four, five,

                             “Watch the table turn,”

                        “Second half! Almost done!!”

    Both show-and-go’s hit, followed by the connected 

                           tosses and low-to-high’s,

      Rhythmic pounding and clapping starts, entering       

                                    the end dance,

      Five eight-counts later: “This bass is goin’ down!  

                                          CHAOS!”

   Screaming, yelling, energy, facials, running, jumping,      

                        hugging, laughter, and pride.
