No, a Neverland with FCOL stuck in there even though it was completely out of character would be retarded.

I knew most people would want FCOL stuck in there because they like the song and they would try to justify it being in there... but just because you like something and want to stick it in there doesn't mean it belongs in there. (that's what she said). Just like Jim stuck the Godspeed speed us away into Graveyard Shift because he was reusing the BFG music or when Jim changed the Dance of the Vampires lyrics to Tonight is what it means to be young even though the lyrics made no sense in context... a bunch of Jim fans thought it was great cause they liked the song and thought it was great that he shoehorned it in there... but good theater has to develop from the characters... not from sticking a bunch of songs in there because they are already written and you like them, even if they don't fit. Maybe there is a way to fit FCOL into the show... but as it is written the lyrics do not make sense for Peter to sing to Wendy. "Sooner or Later they'll never grow up" is the theme of the show... The lyrics do not fit Peter and Wendy's relationship.
