Suddenly Seymour

Suddenly Seymour - The New Musical Cast

Lift up your head wash off your mascara

Here take my Kleenex

Wipe that lipstick away

Show me your face clean as the mornin'

I know things were bad

But now they're okay

Suddenly Seymour is standing beside you

You don't need no make-up

Don't have to pretend

Suddenly Seymour is here to provide you

Sweet understandin' Seymour's your friend

Nobody ever treated me kindly

Daddy left early Mama was poor

I'd meet a man and I'd follow him blindly

He'd snap his fingers me I'd say "Sure"

Suddenly Seymour is standing beside me

He don't give me orders

He don't condescend

Suddenly Seymour is here to provide me

Sweet understanding Seymour's my friend

Tell me this feeling last 'til forever

Tell me the bad times are clean washed away

Please understand

That it's still strange and frightening

For losers like I've been it's so hard to say
