But then I get a PAUSE text up front, is there any way to override that?

In your endGame method you are:
using the default pause scene, which adds that text
adding the PauseLayer, which also display that text
So
don't add cocos.scene.pause.PauseLayer,
dont get the pause scene with cocos.scenes.pause.get_pause_scene();
instead copy paste the function cocos.pause.default_pause_scene , rename
it, and shorten the return line to
return PauseScene(texture.get_region(0, 0, w, h))
Obviously you can add the other info you want to display.

When the old scene is never to continue, it is better to use
director.replace than director.push: some resources are then released.
