People have been texting their partners lyrics from High School Musical's "Gotta Go My Own Way" and, as you would expect, the responses have been incredible.

All the best internet challenges have a few things in common. You might have to text someone something weird like "would you still love me if I had no skin" or, simply, "how do I look". Then, you have to share it on Twitter and bask in the hilarity. The latest viral challenge has people texting their boyfriends/loved ones High School Musical lyrics and, as you might have predicted, the results are mixed.

What is the high school musical challenge?

People are texting their partners lyrics from High School Musical's "Gotta Go My Own Way", a Vanessa Hudgens number from the second movie. 'Gotta Go My Own Way" has some pretty dramatic lyrics, so you might understand how receiving them in a text might make your partner a bit nervous.

Here are some of the lyrics to "Gotta Go My Own Way":

I gotta say what's on my mind
Something about us
Doesn't seem right these days
Life keeps getting in the way
Whenever we try
Somehow the plan
Is always rearranged
It's so hard to say
But I've got to do what's best for me
You'll be okay
I've got to move on and be who I am
I just don't belong here
I hope you understand
We might find a place in this world someday
But at least for now
I gotta go my own way

Some people pulled it off so well that their partner actually thought they were being broken up with.
