Beetlejuice Musical transcript
“PROLOGUE: INVISIBLE”
ENSEMBLE: DAYLIGHT COME AND ME WAN’ GO
AH, AH, AH, AH, AH, AH, AH, AH
PRIEST: In times like these, we have no words, we have only each other. Today, we come together to mourn the passing of Emily Deetz. Devoted wife to Charles, beloved mother to Lydia. Scripture tells us, “Sorrow not. For we do not walk alone.”
LYDIA: YOU’RE INVISIBLE WHEN YOU’RE SAD
CLOCKS TICK AND PHONES STILL RING
THE WORLD CARRIES ON LIKE MAD
BUT NOBODY SEES A THING
WHISPERING BEHIND THEIR HANDS
LOST FOR KIND WORDS TO SAY
NOBODY UNDERSTANDS
THEN EVERYONE GOES AWAY
GROWN UPS WANT TO FIX THINGS, WHEN THEY CAN’T, IT ONLY FILLS THEM WITH SHAME
SO, THEY JUST LOOK AWAY
IS IT BEING GREEDY TO NEED SOMEBODY TO SEE ME AND SAY MY NAME
SEEMS WHEN YOU LOSE YOUR MOM
NO ONE TURNS OFF THE SUN
FOLKS CARRY ON THAT’S THAT
YOU’RE INVISIBLE WHEN YOU’RE SAD
BEETLEJUICE: Holy crap! A ballad already? And such a bold departure from the original source material!
“THE WHOLE ‘BEING DEAD’ THING”
BEETLEJUICE: HEY FOLKS!
BEGGING YOUR PARDON!
WELCOME TO THE WINTER GARDEN!
NOW LET’S SKIP THE TEARS AND START ON THE WHOLE… YOU KNOW
BEING DEAD THING!
YOU’RE DOOMED!
ENJOY THE SINGING!
THE SWORD OF DAMECLES IS SWINGING
AND IF I HEAR YOUR CELL PHONE RINGING, I’LL KILL YOU MYSELF
THE WHOLE BEING DEAD THING!
DEATH CAN GET A PERSON STRESSED!
WE SHOULD’VE CARP’ED WAY MORE DIEMS
NOW WE’RE NEVER GONNA SEE ‘EM
I CAN SHOW YOU WHAT COMES NEXT
SO, DON’T BE FREAKED
STAY IN YOUR SEAT
I DO THIS BULLSHIT LIKE 8 TIMES A WEEK
SO JUST RELAX
YOU’LL BE FINE
DRINK YOUR $50 WINE AND TAKE A BREATH
ENSEMBLE: WELCOME TO A SHOW ABOUT DEATH!
BEETLEJUICE : YOU’RE, YOU’RE GONNA BE FINE
ON THE OTHER SIDE
DIE, YOU’RE ALL GONNA DIE, YOU’RE ALL GONNA DIE
I’LL, I’LL BE YOUR GUIDE
TO THE OTHER SIDE
ENSEMBLE: OH, AND FULL DISCLOSURE
