Watching Beetlejuice: The Musical

Ready Set, Not Yet

Adam:

Look at this crib

'Oh, gosh, this is about us' said Barbara as gripped his hands and rested her head on his chest. They'd hoped that the musical wouldn't mention their child problem and that it would mainly focus on Beetlejuice and Lydia, as they hadn't told their new family about the issue. Adam rubbed his wife's shoulder comfortingly and kissed her head

'If it comes up, we'll explain, but lets try to forget about it' he whispered to her. She nodded and curled up more into his side. 

In all of its glorious antiquary
Every curve and surface speaks to me

'Bet you say that to Barbara a lot' said Beetlejuice and Adam blushed. Barbara stuck her foot out and kicked the demon and then snuggled up into her husbands side again.

Saying pamper and spoil me
Sand me and oil me
Come on
I know to the untrained eye it's boring
But nothing's a chore when you're restoring
Apart from frustration, pain, and financial drain

'I almost miss our old life' whispered Adam 

'Almost?' asked Barbara, looking up at Adam

'Almost' repeated Adam and he kissed Barbara's head

It's fun! Folks say Adam
Why do you polish your crib when you don't have a kid?
And even if you did have a kid
This crib is too precious for placing a baby inside it
So it simply exists to remind you
Your sense of perfection is just a reflection that
You are not mentally prepared to make room for a kid

Charles and Delia looked sadly over at the ghost couple, who were looking down sadly.

Adam, why don't you live?
Adam, just make a start
Are you willing to take the next step?
Ready, set
Ready, set

'No offence you guys' said Lydia, turning to the Maitlands 'But I don't think I would've liked you guys when you were alive. You're a lot more fun like this' Barbara and Adam smiled at the teenager and continued watching the video

Barbara:

Look at these jugs!

'Beetlejuice!' exclaimed Delia. Because the Beetlejuice on the screen had whipped his head around only to turn around disappointed when the Barbara on the screen held up to clay jugs. 

Amazingly glazed and terracotta-ery
I took some clay and made you pottery
The world will never wreck you
I'll protect you in a mother's embrace. 

'You guys would've been amazing parents' said Lydia. The Maitlands smiled sadly at her and Adam rubbed Barbara's back comfortingly 

'Thanks Lyds, although we see you as our child in some ways' said Adam. Lydia broke out into a huge grin while Beetlejuice pretended to gag on the floor. Barbara reached out and slapped his shoulder.

Folks say, Barbara
Why can't you see that ceramics is
Simply a manifestation of motherly panic
By making a baby that's breakable
Aren't you creating a way of translating the
Terror of making maternal mistakes into clay
Hiding away so you don't have to face being a bad mom
Barbara
That's what you've done, Barbara
Just make a start
Are you willing to take the next step?
Ready, set

'She can sing really well' said Barbara 'All these people can, its amazing'

'You guys should try to learn these songs afterwards' said Delia 

'YES!' exclaimed Beetlejuice. Delia sighed and shook her head, going back to watching the screen

Adam and Barbara (Beetlejuice):
