Poor Me Lyrics

Off-Broadway musical
Here Lies Love the Musical - Poor Me Lyrics


The song is written by David Byrne and Fatboy Slim.

MARCOS:
Oh Imelda
Light of my world
My queen of hearts
For all of these years
Come back to me
Don't leave me alone
For there is darkness
When you are not here

IMELDA:
Putang ina mo!
You deserve to be sick
In public no less
What you did to me
How can a titi mo
Run the country?
It takes a woman
To do a man's job

MARCOS:
I'll be up and about
In a matter of days
She, she meant
Nothing to me
I'll never do it again

ENSEMBLE:
The President's fine!
It's a slight allergy
Well he's doing okay
You know he's writing a book!
Our President's fine!
It's just a small cold
Now our President's fine
You know he's so overworked!

ENSEMBLE:
Poor me!

IMELDA:
Now I have to do everything!

ENSEMBLE:
Poor me

IMELDA:
I'm their star and their slave

ENSEMBLE:
Poor me

IMELDA:
I learned to walk like a woman

ENSEMBLE:
Now I'm strong

IMELDA:
Nothing can stand in my way

ENSEMBLE:
Our President's fine
How to do it
He's doing okay
Lightly
Our President's fine
You'll get through it
I saw him today
Nightly
Our President's fine

IMELDA:
Now I have to do everything

ENSEMBLE:
He's doing okay

IMELDA:
I'm their star and their slave

ENSEMBLE:
Our President's fine

IMELDA:
I learned to walk like a woman

ENSEMBLE:
I saw him today

IMELDA:
Nothing can stand in my way

MARCOS:
Oh Imelda
Light of my world

ENSEMBLE:
How to do it

MARCOS:
My queen of hearts

ENSEMBLE:
Poor me

MARCOS:
For all of these years

ENSEMBLE:
Lightly

IMELDA:
Let me be

MARCOS:
Come back to me

ENSEMBLE:
Poor me

MARCOS:
Don't leave me alone

ENSEMBLE:
You'll get through it

IMELDA:
Your star and slave

ENSEMBLE:
Now I'm strong
Nightly
