naughty [broadway] - tim minchin lyrics

[matilda]
jack and jill went up the hill
to fetch a pail of water
so they say
the subsequent fall was inevitable
they never stood a chance
they were written that way:
innocent victims of their story

like romeo and juliet
’twas written in the stars before they even met
that love and fate and a touch of stupidity
would rob them of their hope of living happily
the endings are often a little bit gory!
i wonder why they didn’t just change their story
we’re told we have to do what we’re told, but surely
sometimes you have to be a little bit naughty!

just because you find that life’s not fair, it
doesn’t mean that you just have to grin and bear it
if you always take it on the chin and wear it
nothing will change
even if you’re little, you can do a lot. you
mustn’t let a little thing like “little” stop you
if you sit around and let them get on top, you
might as well be saying you think that it’s okay
and that’s not right

and if it’s not right
you have to put it right

(spoken)
platinum blonde hair dye. extra strong. keep out of reach of children. hmm
oil of violets hair tonic. for men. yep!

in the slip of a bolt, there’s a tiny revolt
the seed of a war in the creak of a floorboard
a storm can begin with the flap of a wing
the tiniest mite packs the mightiest sting
every day starts with the tick of a clock
all escapes start with the click of a lock
if you’re stuck in your story and want to get out
you don’t have to cry, you don’t have to shout –

’cause if you’re little, you can do a lot. you
mustn’t let a little thing like “little” stop you
if you sit around and let them get on top, you
won’t change a thing
just because you find that life’s not fair, it
doesn’t mean that you just have to grin and bear it
if you always take it on the chin and wear it
you might as well be saying you think that it’s okay
and that’s not right
and if it’s not right
you have to put it right .

but n-body else is gonna put it right for me
n-body but me is gonna change my story
sometimes you have to be a little bit naughty!
