What Are Gems? lyrics

Altogether- The Classroom Gems! What are Gems?
Pearl- Welcome to Gem classroom. I'm Pearl, and today we're going to talk about what Gems are.
Pearl- Simplified down to our basic form, Gems are- *chuckles* Well, just gems. *giggles* Our bodies are actually projections generated by our gemstone.
Pearl- Think of it like a hologram, but with mass.
Amethyst- Nice mass.
Garnet- I know.
Pearl- Ahem! Though Gems are extraordinarily resiliеnt, if they're seriously hurt, thеy will release their physical form.
Amethyst- Yow!
Pearl- And poof back to just their gem.
Pearl- This way, they can most efficiently put all of their energy into regenerating themselves. And when a Gem is reduced to its gemstone, it can be contained in a bubble-
Pearl- Or trapped in an object, making it impossible to re-form. But don't worry.
Pearl- As long as the gemstone isn't damaged, the Gem will be able to regenerate.
Amethyst- Ta-da! Check me out! Ha! I'm as good as new!
Pearl- But... If a Gem's gemstone is cracked-
Amethyst- Things get really weird.
Pearl- And if a Gem's gem is shattered completely, they'll cease to be.
Amethyst- Good thing I'm super tough.
Garnet- Mm-hmm.
Amethyst- Whoa! Not that tough! Waahhh!
Pearl- That's all for today's lesson.
Pearl- Ahem!
Steven- *waving his hand rapidly* Wait, I have a question.
Steven- What if a Gem is half human?
Pearl- That is a very good question! The answer is you!
Steven- *gasps* Me!
Pearl- Why don't you write an essay about what it's like to be yourself?
Steven- What's an essay?
Pearl- Ehh... Class dismissed!
