UPDATE:

According to a petition on change.org, Rachel Gunn, set up her own governing body for breakdancing, and manipulated the selection process to her own advantage. “Despite the clear talent and qualification of other outstanding female breakdancers like G Clef and Holy Molly, they were unfairly overlooked. The NT Youlong Boys, a group of incredibly talented and underprivileged youth from the Northern Territory, were denied crucial funding by Dr. Gunn to attend the qualifiers—a decision that directly impacted their chance to showcase their skills on a national stage.”

Lyrics

“Bring Back the Break”

(Verse 1)
They brought in the break, just once, it was lit,
The world tuned in, like “Is this legit?”
Ami spun for gold, like a whirlwind from Japan,
Dominika flipped, Lithuania’s dance queen took a stand.
Liu from China, bronzed it with flair,
But who stole the show? A meme-queen named Ray-gun, oh yeah!

(Chorus)
Oh, bring back the break, we need it for the memes,
The spins, the flips, the internet dreams.
Ray-gun went viral, though she fell from grace,
The trolls went wild, but we loved that face.
Olympic break-dancing, don’t leave us alone,
For the laughs, the memes, we need you in our phones!

(Verse 2)
Ray-gun stepped up, with moves kinda shaky,
But the trolls didn’t care, they made her their baby.
She broke the net, not with skill, but with style,
Now every GIF, every meme makes us smile.
The winners were golden, but let’s not pretend,
It was Ray-gun’s stumble that trended in the end.

(Chorus)
Oh, bring back the break, we need it for the memes,
The spins, the flips, the internet dreams.
Ray-gun went viral, though she fell from grace,
The trolls went wild, but we loved that face.
Olympic break-dancing, don’t leave us alone,
For the laughs, the memes, we need you in our phones!

(Bridge)
So here’s to the dancers, who gave it their all,
But it’s Ray-gun’s missteps that we still recall.
The Olympics moved on, but we’re stuck in the past,
Longing for those memes, we want them to last.

(Chorus)
Oh, bring back the break, we need it for the memes,
The spins, the flips, the internet dreams.
Ray-gun went viral, though she fell from grace,
The trolls went wild, but we loved that face.
Olympic break-dancing, don’t leave us alone,
For the laughs, the memes, we need you in our phones!

(Outro)
So IOC, listen, give us one more chance,
To meme, to laugh, to watch Ray-gun dance.
Bring back the break, we’re down on our knees,
For the sake of the memes, oh please, oh please!
