Urinetown the Musical - Why Did I Listen To That Man? Lyrics
Penny
Why did I listen to that man?
Why did I listen to
The nature of his plan?
And when he talked
I should have balked
I should have walked
I should have ran!
Why did I listen to that man?
Fipp
Why did I listen to that crook?
A little bribe in cash is all it really took
That's how that craven
Toilet maven
Made me cave in
I'm a schnook!
Why did I listen to that crook?
Bobby
You lied to us, Cladwell! You told us one thing,
then you did another!
That's what you did, Cladwell!
That's what you did!
Lockstock and Barrel
Now we've finally got you!
Now you're in our claws!
Captured in our city
Of laws
There's no trial or jury
Nothing to discuss
Now the law is speaking
Through us!
You'll get Urinetown!
Off with you to Urinetown!
Away with you to Urinetown!
Now, no more funn!
Penny
Let go of me! I have to save Hope!
Business Man 2
There's no saving Hope now, Ms. Pennywise.
Business Man 1
There may be no saving you.
Penny
Oh, no?! Then take that! And that!
And this! And a few of these!
Hope
Why did I listen to that boy?
He spoke of hopes and dreams
It filled me with such joy
How can I know
He loved me so?
Was it for show?
Was I his toy?
Why did I listen to that boy?
Penny
Why did I listen to that cad?
Hope
Why did I listen to my dad?
Hope and Penny
I went to work for him
He said he was so glad
Hope
Was he sincere?
Penny
Well, now it's clear
Hope
And now I fear
Hope and Penny
That I've been had!
Why did I listen to -
Fipp
That crook
That crook
That crook
That crook
That crook
That crook

Bobby
So what's it like, this "Urinetown"
that I've heard so much about?
Barrel
Perhaps better for us to "show" you.
Bobby
Wait a minute,
You're just going to throw me off this roof and tha's
supposed to be Urinetown?!
Death is Urinetown?!
Lockstock
That's one interpretation
Bobby
Why did I listen to my heart?
I heard its call and made
This revolution start
So let the throng
Take up my song!
Make Cladwell see
That he is wrong
Why did I listen to my heart?
Why did I listen to my heart?
I heard its call and made
This revolution start
So let the throng
Take up my song!
Make Cladwell see
That he is wrong
Lockstock and Barrel
There's no trial or jury
Nothing to discuss
Now the law is speaking
Through us
Bobby, Hope, Penny, Fipp, Lockstock and Barrel
Why did I/he listen to my/that -
Why did I/he listen to my/that -
Penny
Cad?

Dad?
Fipp, Lockstock, Barrel
Bad?
Bobby, Hope, Penny, Fipp, Lockstock and Barrel
Why did I/he listen to my/that -
Bobby

Lockstock
A shovel and a mop, Mr. Barrel. You know the drill.
