Lizzie Borden - The Fall of the House of Borden Lyrics |
A New Rock Musical Lizzie Borden the Musical - The Fall of the House of Borden Lyrics
BRIDGET In the house of Borden Somebody left us quite a mess Splattered blood and brains on everything Except on Lizzie's dress
It's a crime scene, it's a nightmare It's a bloodbath, it's a fright It's a butcher's shop in the house of Borden
A mob is gathering outside Half the town is in the yard The press is in a frenzy Cops are standing guard
It must've been a lunatic A foreigner, a beast But it's just us girls in the house of Borden
LIZZIE (spoken) I was in the backyard
ALICE (spoken) Did you see anyone or hear anything?
LIZZIE (spoken) I saw no one. Heard no screams
ALICE (spoken) Where were you in the yard?
LIZZIE (spoken) I was up in the barn loft
ALICE (spoken) Why would you go up there after... what happened?
LIZZIE (spoken) I went out to get a... lead sinker for my fishing trip. I heard a distressing noise, like scraping, And came back and found the screen door open
ALICE (spoken) How long were you up there?
LIZZIE (spoken) Twenty minutes?
ALICE (spoken) It must've been sweltering!
LIZZIE (spoken) I ate some pears
BRIDGET Lizzie was in the backyard Or did she say the barn? It's only been a day now And she's spinning quite a yarn
What we know for sure Is there were four and now there's two There's no coming back to the house of Borden
In the house of Borden Somebody left us quite a mess Splattered blood and brains on everything Except on Lizzie's dress
It's a crime scene, it's a nightmare It's a bloodbath, it's a fright And it blew the roof off the house of Borden
We laid them out in the dining room It's going on day two I know it sounds disgusting But it's 1892
There's no AC It's August And it's ninety-five degrees Well, you do the math
