Emojiland - Thank Me Now Lyrics

2020 Off-Broadway
Emojiland the Musical - Thank Me Now Lyrics


SKULL: (spoken)
Nerd Face, I am speechless
And eternally grateful
Emojiland has suffered far too long
And your brilliant nerdiness has finally delivered 
It’s salvation

NERD FACE: (spoken)
I beg your pardon?

SKULL: (spoken)
That’s right, friend!
The time, is now
The place is here
And soon, it all will disappear thanks to you
And thanks, to me

(sung)
Text is all we’ve ever been, and all we’ll ever be
Trapped inside a world of two dimensionality
You think you’re part of some progression
But all you are’s a cheap expression!
What if life’s a glitch
That no one bothered to debug?
Maybe it’s benevolent, to simply pull the plug
What curse is greater than the suffering?
Life must endure while death is buffering
So thank me now
While still, you can
For liberty, is pending
Oh, thank me now
Become a fan
Captivity is ending
Now...

NERD FACE: (spoken)
Skull, you're actually beginning to scare me now
You're monologuing like the mentally deranged
Antagonist of an illustrated periodical
Skull!

SKULL:
Ha! Who is it among us
That has truly lost their noodle?
Isn’t it a fact my friend?
You’re more or less a doodle
It’s thus my privilege to treat us,
to a viral code that shall delete us!
So thank me now
While still you can,
For liberty is pending-
Oh, thank me now
Become a fan
Captivity is ending
It must be fading…

OTHER EMOJIS:
It's just so great to be alive!

SKULL:
Recalculating...

OTHER EMOJIS:
Peace! Thumbs Up! Pound! OK! High five!

SKULL:
And in the end it’s all just not…

NERD FACE:
What have I done?

PRINCE:
Let's have some fun!

SMIZE:
We're done before we've even begun

SUNNY:
Sunny can't help but

PRINCESS:
Forever second to none

SUNNY:
Can't help but stun!

ENSEMBLE:
Ah!

SKULL:
Just my volition

CONSTRUCTION WORKER:
I never thought it'd come to this

SKULL:
Like definition

CONSTRUCTION WORKER:
Building walls, reason falls

SKULL:
Must be for death, for I am Skull!

OTHER EMOJIS:
Ooohhh!

PRINCESS: (spoken)
Do it!

SKULL:
So thank me now
While still, you can
For liberty, is pending
Oh, thank me now
Become a fan
Captivity is ending now!

NERD FACE: (spoken)
No!

It's Just so Great to Be Alive
Sad on the Inside
