A thrilling musical from Ryan Scott Oliver and Hunter Foster Jasper in Deadland The Musical - Awful People Lyrics
Mr. Lethe [spoken]: Jaspattack! Has anyone ever asked you the question, "What is life?"
Jasper: Life is awful people.
Mr. Lethe: What is life? [Sung] These days the kiddies, This cesspool of youth, They sucked the titties, Of us who've long known the truth, The brats feed on BS, Well, as long as it's hot They're hateful monsters at best, coming from me, That's saying a lot
[pre-chorus] They are tomorrow They're what Heaven's allowed They rule tomorrow Oh And I couldn't be more proud Ha!
[chorus] Awful people They aren't flesh and bone No Awful people Are chemically grown Yep! Awful people And each one's a clone And it's swell Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Awful people are pavin', pavin' the road to hell
[verse] I see the chidluns up and diddlin' outside They chew up riddlin' Fiddlin' fit to the tide Parents use them and screw them Countries left each one scarred But do they overcome it? No, facebook!
Female Voice [spoken]: Life's really hard.
Mr. Lethe: But see, Jasper That's where my water comes in. Water from the river Lethe makes you forget And see, Jasper, with you, I have someone who can travel between the living world And Deadland whenever they wish! So I want you to be my rep up there, get my water into the stores. "Drink the water, forget your life!"
Mr Lethe [sung]: Bring on tomorrow Oh They're the batters on deck Ha! Ha! Gotta love tomorrow Oh oh oh makes me- just one sec- Ha ha ha
[chorus] Awful people Ascend to the throne But Awful people They can't be alone So Awful People Spawn some of their own Then they dwell Yea! Yeah! Yeah!
That is life! And Jasper, now you know So much life We can't let it go
[Spoken] Cuz If you help me, I'll let your little friend return to the living world.
Jasper: And if I don't?
Mr. Lethe: well, my current plan is to torture and torment her until she's pulp
[sung] Awful, ain't it, but it's carved in stone That Awful creatures Will rule your zone They're Awfully awful As I think Ive shown For you see Jasper
Your awful parents These awful friends Your awful life you see it all could end if you agree To help those awful people with the most awful son of a biotch That's me!
[spoken] Do we have a deal?
