ACT 1-SCENE 2
(LIGHTS UP ON ENSEMBLE IN STARK CITY SCENE)
SONG #1 NOW YOU’VE DONE IT (ENSEMBLE)
(CHORUS)
NOW YOU’VE DONE IT
YOU HAVE OPENED ME WIDE
NOW YOU’VE DONE IT
YOU CAN’T PUT ME BACK INSIDE
NOW YOU’VE DONE IT
THE CITY’S OPENED ME WIDE
NOW YOU’VE DONE IT
I CANT STOP THIS WILD RIDE
(VERSE 1)
SOME OF US BORN HERE SOME OF US NOT
THE CITY BECOMES HER, THE ONE MEAN MOTHER YOU’VE GOT
THE DIRT AND THE DANGER, YOU KNOW YOU’RE ALONE
YOU LIVE LIKE A STRANGER, CUBBY CORNER YOUR HOME
TIRED/WORN/SCARED TO THE BONE
(FULL CHORUS)
(DESCANT) IT’S THE CITY THAT SAYS YOU’RE THE WORLD BABY
AN ANSWER, A PRAYER, SOUL -SLAYER
(VERSE 2)
LIKE CROWS ON A WIRE WE LINE UP AT THE BARS
DRUG-STAINED FINGERS COUNTING NEON STARS
WE ARE FALLING CHILDREN-THE BOWERY OUR FERTILE FIELD
FORCED TO ULEARN WHAT WE THOUGHT WAS REAL
(CHORUS)
NOW YOU’VE DONE IT YOU HAVE OPENED ME WIDE
NOW YOU’VE DONE IT YOU CANT PUT ME BACK INSIDE
NOW YOU’VE DONE THE CITY HAS OPENED ME WIDE
NOW YOU’VE DONE IT I CAN’T STOP THIS WILD RIDE
(BRIDGE)
RETRIEVING WHAT WE WANT TO BE THERE
NEED TO BE THERE
ACHE TO BE CARED FOR….
ONCE YOU START IT ENGAGES YOUR HEART
IT FITS LIKE A NOOSE BUT YOU DONT CUT IT LOOSE
(CHORUS)
(IT’S THE CITY THAT SAYS IM THE WORLD, BABY
ITS AN ANSWER, A PRAYER, A PROMISE, SOUL- SLAYER
(CHORUS) (DESCANT) OH IT’S ALL RIGHT HERE IN THE CITY
