The Grinning Man the musical - The Smiling Song Lyrics
The song is written by Tim Phillips, Marc Teitler, Carl Grose and Tom Morris.
ANGELICA
And then, with sudden clarity, you’re him and he is you
And then you see that all the people round you feel that too
COMPANY
And all at once their voices split the silence like a knife
A shout of triumph from the heart
The pure laughter of life
I’ve been smiled at
You’ve been smiled at
Once small smile can change your world
URSUS
Dea, take me back to the place
Where once we were lost in the snow
DEA
Father, what have they done to you?
Let me bandage your wounds for you
JOSIANA
I felt nothing ‘til I felt his bleeding cheek
Now my life has been transfigured by a freak
DEA
Everyone wants to see Grinpayne
Where on earth can you be, Grinpayne?
COMPANY
I’m still smiling
You’re still smiling
Grinning like a bag of pearls
DIRRY-MOIR
The Grinning Man has changed my life again
I wish that he would change it back again
He’s so ugly-beautiful it makes me want to scream
He has made a nightmare from what could have been a dream
BARKILPHEDRO
Grinpayne has turned my world upside down
I can’t believe that filth-ridden clown
Now will be wearing my velvet gown
Stolen away the day I was almost a lord
URSUS
Bury your pain
And start life again
In a world beyond your dreams
DIRRY-MOIR
All my fortune disappeared like that
Since I put a penny in that motherfucker’s hat
Now he’s got my title and my sword and all my land
And he’s got my sister, which is more than I can stand
COMPANY
Everyone who sees him is amazed
At the grisly beauty of his face
A mutilated angel and a devastating freak
Hand on heart we promise he is totally unique
GRINPAYNE
Oh, Josiana, what did she see?
Could I see Dea the way she saw me?
COMPANY
Hallelujah praise The Grinning Man
He’s the greatest freak in all the land
Where is our sweet grinning
Swept off our feet grinning
Fresh from the teat grinning
Goes down a treat grinning
We want to eat grinning
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah praise The Grinning Man
