Spring Awakening - And Then There Were None lyrics

rate me

MRS. GABOR (Spoken)

Dear Herr Stief - Moritz,

I've spent the entire day thinking about your note

Truly it touched me – it did – that you would think of me as a friend

Of course, I was saddened to hear that

Your exams came off rather less well than you'd hoped

And that you will not be promoted, come fall

And, yet, I must say straightaway that fleeing to America is hardly the solution

And, even if it were, I cannot provide the money you request...

MORITZ (singing)

Uh huh... uh huh... uh huh... well, fine

Not like it's even worth the time

But still, you know, you wanted more

Sorry, it won't change – been there before

MRS. GABOR (Spoken)

You would do me wrong, Herr Stiefel to read into my refusal any lack of affection

On the contrary, as Melchior's mother, I truly believe it to be my duty to curb this momentary loss...

MORITZ (singing)

The thing that sucks- okay?- for me

A thousand bucks, I'm, like, scott free

And I mean, please... That's all I need

Get real, Jose!

By now you know the score...

MRS. GABOR (Spoken)

Should you like, I am ready to write your parents

I will try to convince them that no one could've worked harder last semester

And also that too rigorous a condemnation of your current misfortune

Could have the gravest possible effect on...

MORITZ (Singing)

You wanna laugh, it's too absurd

You start to ask, can't hear a word

You're gonna crash and burn

Right, tell me more...

MRS. GABOR (Spoken)

Still, Herr Stiefel, one thing in your letter disturbed me

Your – what shall we call it? – veiled threat that should escape not be possible

You would take your own life...

MORITZ (Singing)

Okay, so now we do the play

Act like we so care. No way!

You'll write my folks? Well, okay

Babe, that's how it goes...

MRS. GABOR (Spoken)

My dear boy, the world is filled with men –

Businessmen, scientists, scholars even who have done rather poorly in school

And yet, gone on to brilliant careers

Consider for example our friend...

MORITZ (Singing)

They freak or won't

You toe the line

You tell your soul, "Just kill some time."

Will it quit? It will until they don't...

They're not my home, not anymore

Not like they so were before

Still, I'll split, and they'll like...

Well, who knows?

MRS. GABOR (Spoken)

In any case, I assure you that

Your present misfortune will have no effect on my feelings for you

Or, on your relationship with Melchior...

MORITZ & BOYS (singing)

Uh huh... uh huh... uh huh... well, fine

Not like it's even worth the time

But still, you know, you wanted more

Okay, so nothing's changed – heard that before

You wanna laugh, it's too absurd

You start to ask, can't hear a word

You wanna crash and burn

Right, tell me more

You start to cave, you start to cry

You try to run, nowhere to hide

You want to crumble up, and close that door

MRS. GABOR (Spoken)

So, head high, Herr Stiefel!

And do let me hear from you soon

In the meantime, I am unchangingly, and most fondly yours,

Fanny Gabor

MORITZ (singing)

Just fuck it – right? Enough, that's it

You'll still go on – well, for a bit

Another day of utter shit

And then there were none...

MORITZ & BOYS

And, then there were none...

And, then there were none...

And, then there were none...
