Might As Well (Go To Hell) Lyrics |
2006 Off-Broadway Gutenberg! the Musical - Might As Well (Go To Hell) Lyrics
The song is written by Scott Brown and Anthony King.
DOUG: (spoken) Scene three The monks’ evil tower It is dark... and dank
BUD: (spoken) The floor is covered with rats... And with feces Helvetica stands at the window Overlooking the moon
DOUG: (as Helvetica) I’m in a tower with rats and some feces And the man I adore is so close... And yet so far If I were here I would ask him to squeeze these My heart is one big scar I’m blubberin’ like a retarded lady And maybe I oughta be... Maybe I oughta be beaten History’s paved with the hearts of the stupid Heaven is saved for the souls who have no sin I thought I was brave when I said “hey” to Cupid But I won’t do that again Cause now I’ll never have a friend or lover So maybe I oughta go... Maybe I might as well go to hell
Might as well Might as well go to hell Might as well Might as well go to hell
My mama told me that hell was a bad place With no pretty kitties To cuddle when you’re low When I am dead I will sure miss your cat face But I goofed up and I know I will never leave Medieval death row So maybe I oughta go Maybe I might as well go to hell
Might as well Might as well go to hell
(spoken) Rats, sing with me!
BUD: (as Rats) Might as well Might as well go to hell
BOTH: (as Helvetica & Rats) Might as well Might as well go to hell
DOUG (as Helvetica): (spoken) I want to die But should I try? To kill myself I dunno!
(singing) To be or not to be... me
(spoken) I’ve gotta do it!
BUD: (spoken) Helvetica bends the bars Steps onto the ledge And prepares to jump
DOUG (as Helvetica): (spoken) I’m flying!
BUD: (spoken) Helvetica soars over the town of Schlimmer
DOUG (as Helvetica): (spoken) Goodbye rats! Goodbye feces! Hello Schlimmer! Weeeeee! It’s beautiful! I can see my house... And it’s not real I’m still in my tower
(singing) I have betrayed you My beautiful Hamlet And when I say Hamlet I’m talkin’ ‘bout my town Cause there are two meanings of the word Hamlet So maybe I oughta drown Or put my body in the ground Cause I let everybody down I’m just a cryin’ clown Wearing a painted frown I hear a scary sound It’s a three headed hound! Downed with a round brown crown In hand!
BUD: (as Rats) Might as well
BOTH: (as Helvetica and Rats) Might as well go to hell Might as well
DOUG: (as Helvetica) Come and get me Satin!
BUD: (as Rats) Might as well go to hell
DOUG: (as Helvetica) I wanna be with you!
BUD: (as Rats) Might as well
DOUG: (as Helvetica) I want your horns inside me!
BUD: (as Rats) Might as well go to hell
DOUG: (as Helvetica) I wanna live with you!
BUD: (as Rats) Might as well
DOUG: (as Helvetica) In hell!
BUD: (as Rats) Might as well go... Might as well...
DOUG: (as Helvetica) Go to hell
