lirik lagu little shop of horrors - downtown (skid row)
[crystal]
alarm goes off at seven
and you start uptown.
you put in your eight hours
for the powers that have always been.
[ronnette]
sing it, child
[crystal]
til it’s five p.m.
[wino #1]
then you go
[downtown girls]
downtown
where the folks are broke
you go
downtown
where your life’s a joke
you go
downtown
when you buy your token, you go-
home to skid row!
home to skid row!
[wino #1]
yes, you go
[all]
downtown
[crystal]
where the cabs don’t stop.
[all]
downtown
[mushnik]
where the food is slop.
[all]
downtown
where the hop-heads flop in the snow!
down on skid row!
[girls]
uptown you cater to a million jerks
uptown your messengers and mailroom clerks
eatin’ all your lunches at the hot-dog carts
the bosses take your money
and they break your hearts
and uptown you cater to a million wh-r-s
you disinfect terrazzo on their bathroom floors
your morning’s tribulation, afternoon’s a curse
and five o’clock is even worse-
[wino #1]
that’s when you go
[all]
downtown
[audrey]
where the guys are drips.
[all]
downtown
[audrey]
where they rip your slips.
downtown
where relationships are no-go.
[all]
down on skid row!
[seymour]
poor!
all my life, i’ve always been poor!
i keep asking god what i’m for!
and he tells me,
“gee, i’m not sure…
sweep that floor, kid”
oh!
i started life as an orphan,
a child of the street, here on skid row!
he took me in, gave me shelter,
a bed, crust of bread, and a job-
treats me like dirt,
calls me a slob,
which i am!
so i live…
[others]
downtown
[seymour]

i’ll start climbin’ up hill
and get outa here

but believe me i gotta get outa
[cast] {d}
