Kimberly Akimbo the Musical - Better Lyrics
Music by Jeanine Tesori and lyrics by David Lindsay-Abaire.
SETH:
Levaco is L-E-V-
KIMBERLY:
A-C-O.
SETH:
A-C-O.
KIMBERLY:
Oh
SETH (spoken):
I'm going to start with the K first because that's
One of the hardest letters.
KIMBERLY:
Oh
SETH:
Kuh, kuh, kuh, kah.
KIMBERLY:
Oh
SETH:
Ka-kay, key, ki, kilo.
KIMBERLY:
Oh
SETH:
Kill, killer, cola, E. coli.
Broken. Yoke, yo, yo yokel.
Ya, yam, yak, lamb.
KIMBERLY:
Oh
SETH:
Oh, I just found mackerel!
KIMBERLY:
I like the way you see the world
I like your point of view
A little sly, a little strange, a little bit askew
I like the way you look at life
And think outside the box
A little odd, a little off, a bit unorthodox
SETH:
Lib, libby, libya.
KIMBERLY:
I like your point of view
SETH:
Yick, yicky, Mickey, Rickey, icky!
KIMBERLY:
I like the way you make a point
I like your frame of mind
A little quick, a little sharp
A little beat behind
I like the way you crack a joke
That no one else will get
A little dry, a little droll, a little dumb
And yet
SETH:
Okra, cobra, marble, barley
KIMBERLY:
I like your point of view
SETH:
Bravo, cello, limo, rio, macro, micro, mayo, bakery!
KIMBERLY:
Oh, with the turn of a letter
Oh, everything's better
I wonder how you see the things you see
With a change of perspective
Nothing's defective
I wonder what you see
When you look at me
Oh
SETH:
Me, me, my, my, eye, ball
Icky eyeball, icky earlobe.
KIMBERLY:
Over, clover.
SETH:
Licker, lickable, lokable, lovable, livable.
Liver
My liver, my oliver
My locker, my blocker, my blacker olive.
My rockable veil.
My crablike love!
Oh, that's awful.
KIMBERLY:
I like the way you understand.
I like the way you think
A little weird, a little wise,
A little out of sync
SETH:
Lever, ever, clever.
Wait a minute.
KIMBERLY:
I like your point of view
SETH:
Clever, cleaver.
Limber, Kimberly?
KIMBERLY:
I like
SETH:
Kimberly Levaco turns into-
KIMBERLY:
I like
SETH:
Cleverly
Akimbo.
KIMBERLY:
You
SETH:
Cleverly Akimbo!
KIMBERLY:
You.
SETH:
That's a pretty good one!
I did my grandmother's name and got "Arabian beard."
(both laughing)
