Surprise testo

If/Then: A New Musical

Testo

[Company:]

Hey, hey ain’t it some surprise
How the years will slip on past you
How the time just flies?
And behold you’re older, bolder, and much wiser than before
Ain’t that some surprise?

[Anne (Jenn Colella):]

They’re at the door!

[Everyone:]

Surprise!

[Lucas (Anthony Rapp):]

If you’re not drinkin’ then something’s new

[Liz (Idina Menzel):]

It’s nothing really; I can’t tell you

[Lucas:]

You’re on the wagon, or else, oh jeez

[Liz:]

Keep your voice down Lucas, please!

[Lucas:]

You haven’t told Josh!

[Liz:]

Don’t know what to say!

[Lucas):]

You better think quick then, he’s minutes away

[Liz:]

There’s too many people and it’s just as well

[Guy:]

Um, Josh is a doctor they can often tell

[Liz:]

Oh, hell…

Hey, um, thanks for the surprise
Let’s go party on the rooftop, underneath the skies

[David (Jason Tam), to Lucas:]

Move in with me, officially

[Lucas:]

It just…seems so traditional

[David:]

Hey, hey ain’t it some surprise
Babe, you’re in a real-life couple, try that on for size
You can fear it, dear, it’s clear, it’s not about to go away
Ain’t that some surprise?

[Lucas:]

Ain’t this some surprise?
It feels okay

[David, spoken:]

Well, hey!

[Beth (Idina Menzel):]

No more surprises. No men to kiss.
I might want children but not like this
He thinks he loves me and I know it’s not true
No more surprises, god, what to do?

[Elena (Tamika Lawrence):]

What do you want, right now?

[Beth:]

I want that job. I want to give it everything I have.

[Elena:]

No more surprises, your life’s on track

[Beth:]

I’m moving forward, I won’t go back

[Elena:]

So let your heart win and let the doubt be gone

[Elena and Beth:]

No more surprises

[Beth:]

I’m moving on

[Josh (Josh Snyder):]

Liz, so sorry I’m late. I missed the surprise, didn’t I?

[Liz:]

Not entirely. I’m pregnant.

[Josh:]

Wow! Wow, that is some surprise!

[Liz:]

Yeah, your teeny tiny swimmers, they’re determined little guys

[Josh:]

It could be that we should see this through, it might mean that, it might

[Liz:]

It’s just such a surprise

[Josh:]

It still feels right

[Anne:]

I think she told him!

[Kate:]

I think she did.
Marry me.

[Anne:]

What?

[Kate:]

Hey, hey ain’t it some surprise?
After all this time together, I look into your eyes

[Kate and Anne:]

And I see what we could be if we step up and say “I do”
Ain’t that some surprise?

[Anne:]

I do love you

[Kate:]

And I love you

[All:]

Hey, hey ain’t it some surprise?
Ain’t it some surprise?

[Josh:]

39 candles, Liz, I know how you like candles!

[Lucas:]

1 candle, Beth, I know how you hate waste
We can do this!

[Josh:]

This is meant to be!
Liz?

[Lucas:]

Beth?

[Liz/Beth:]
At 39 everything changes
I’m older but hardly more wise
And just when you think you’re on course, the sea starts to rise
And from clear blue skies

[Lucas:]

Marry me.

[Josh:]

Marry me.

[Liz/Beth:]
Surprise
