A New Rock Musical Lizzie Borden the Musical - Why Are All These Heads Off Lyrics
BRIDGET (spoken) Miss Lizzie, your father doesn't want you nor Miss Russell up in the barn no more
LIZZIE (spoken) Maggie? What do you have there?
BRIDGET Listen to me, Lizzie, it's bad And I don't know how to say this But your father saw you in the barn He saw you go up there with Alice
He said, "I told her to leave those birds alone They're sick and dark and filthy" Then he took an axe and chopped their heads off One by one he killed them
LIZZIE The sound of beating pigeon wings Is ringing in my ears And the taste of blood is on my tongue And it's been rising up for years
My world is growing darker He is shutting out the light There's no way out of this pressure cooker No way out alive
BRIDGET, LIZZIE, ALICE Why are all these heads off? Why are all these heads off? Why are all these heads off? Why are all these heads off?
ALICE Why? Why? Why?
BRIDGET, LIZZIE, ALICE Why are all these heads off? Why are all these heads off? Why are all these heads off? Why are all these heads
ALICE Wait, wait, wait Everything is fine, Lizzie We will find a better way If you stay with me, Lizzie I will protect you
BRIDGET There are two sides, Lizzie You didn't choose what side you're on
ALICE But there is right!
BRIDGET And there is wrong!
LIZZIE And I will choose my weapon!
BRIDGET, LIZZIE, ALICE Why are all these heads off? Why are all these heads off? Why are all these heads off? Why are all these heads off?
ALICE Why? Why? Why?
BRIDGET, LIZZIE, ALICE Why are all these heads off? Why are all these heads off? Why are all these heads off? Why are all these heads off?
ALICE Why? Why? Why?
LIZZIE I'm standing looking forward in the dark A feeling brushes past me And I know the wind has changed
