a town meeting - the clockmaker's daughter cast lyrics
*arguing*
mayor glynn: settle down! [sung] i understand a certain few among the crowd are concerned
villagers [spoken]: concerned, glynn? have you lost your head?
that thing could be anywhere!
what’s to be done?
mayor glynn [sung]: i can -ssure those certain few that in due time you will be heard
villagers: getting late
why the wait?
this debate is just absurd!
mayor glynn: all that can be done, shall be done
just be calm, you have my word
solutions will be found
jim: i resolve to remove you, approve it and it’s done!
villagers: get rid of her
be rid of her
it’s just not natural
devilry, it’s devilry
it’s some bewitching incantation
remedy, a remedy
we salt the streets and feed the fire
oddity, monstrosity a miscreation
female villager: i just can’t sleep she keeps me up at night
female villagers: has anybody seen her since the square?
to think she could be stalking somewhere near
and pounce on anyone from anywhere
male villagers: is there a door in town that’s strong enough to cage her?
amelia: how can you slur her name?
the self-same folk who spoke so highly of her yesterday
i am so ashamed of you!
to claim a version of a truth that isn’t true
she was nothing but a saint to you!
now you paint a demon in her place?
show me a trace of her disgrace
show me events of ill-intent
without inventing further lies
you say she’s false
the only fabrication i can see is in your eyes!
villagers: clockwork, clockwork
mayor glynn: settle down, please!
female villager: just listen to amelia
she’s right, i know you know that
she always helped in anyway she could
constance was good to me
good to us
all of us
male villager: i lost my pipe three weeks ago
i’m always losing things
she turned up on the doorstep
soaking head to toe
she’d found it in the brook
jumped straight in and bought it home
female villager: she always had some time for me
i’m always rushing round
she’d check my calculations, just to guarantee
i’d stop and eat my lunch
she’d insist that i agree
amelia: constance was good to everyone
anyone she met
ma riley [spoken]: help! help me!
villager: ma, what’s wrong?
ma riley: will, my boy!
villager: what is it, ma?
ma riley: villainy! she’s evil! she came for me. came for me and got my boy, my william!
mayor glynn: what’s going on?
ma riley: she shot my will!
*gasp*
villager: ma, where’s will?
ma riley: gone
villager: gone where?
ma riley: took him. she took him from me. i couldn’t stop it. save us! save us all!
jim [sung]: you see? if you’d given me the nod an hour ago
mayor glynn: please, jim, be quiet!
female villager: you want to talk it over more, let’s go!
mayor glynn: we have to think this through!
villagers: what’s there the think about?
for all we know the lad is still alive
i’ve seen enough
me too
poor will
she’s tried to k!ll one of our own
not one of us
what’s to discuss?
it’s needs must
they must
and they must
rid of her, get rid of her
be rid of her
it’s just not natural
devilry, it’s devilry
and none of us are safe around it
remedy, a remedy
we take our barns and feed the fires
oddity, monstrosity
a miscreation
rid of her, get rid of her
be rid of her
it’s just not natural
devilry, it’s devilry
and none of us are safe around it
remedy, a remedy
we take our barns and feed the fires
oddity, monstrosity
a miscreation
devilry, remedy
stop the clockwork
