Broadway Musical (2013) Big Fish the Musical - Showdown Lyrics
Will Bloom: You see this man? This tired man? He's a liar and scoundrel to the core!
Edward Bloom: You see this boy? Ungrateful boy? Knockin' on some long forgotten door.
Will: Now I know, I know, Something he's been hidin' Something that his pride will not reveal.
Edward: He wastes his time Accusing me What exactly does this fellow feel?
Will: I feel like there's gonna be a hangin' tonight! There's gonna be a hangin' tonight! There's gonna be We're soon to see A hell of a fight There's gonna be a hangin' tonight!
[Dance/Instrumental Break]
Will: There's gonna be a hangin' tonight!
ALl: That's right! Yes, there's gonna be a hangin' Tonight!
Will: You see this folder In my hand You know exactly what it is
Edward: Do I?
Will: Who'll be the first to tell us?
Edward: Tell all you want but you will never understand
Will: So what comes next?
All [Overlapping]: What comes next? Comes next? Abide the law. Abide the law. You get a trial A trial A trial
Edward [Spoken]: Friends! Life is a trial!
Will [Spoken]: No! You-
Edward [Spoken]: Son! [Sung] You can't go back to what you were Your life won't re-run And you can't undo the things That you prefer be undone You can never change the past Though it may haunt every breath You can drown but be reborn If you're not frightened of death!
You're so sure that I'm a rotten father Absent and lame Never interested in staying home Or homecoming game
But maybe you're the one Imperfect son Who overreacts Better check with all your sources Before twisting the facts!
Will: So by no means did you visit Ashton?
Edward: Back in my youth.
All: Can you please explain precisely Why you're hiding the truth?
Edward: I'm not hiding the truth!
Will [spoken]: Your Honor! [sung] I would like to submit One more major piece of evidence
All: And then you'll acquit!
Will: Would you kindly tell the jury What you hold in the air?
Edward: It says right here that it's a deed.
All: To what?
Edward: A house.
Will: Tell me where.
Edward: Really son, I don't know what you think You're tryin' to prove.
All: Where's the house?
Edward [Overlapping]: It says in Ashton. Give me that!
Will [Overlapping]: And that's somewhere that you've Never been to since your boyhood But this deed spells it out! There is someone living in this house
Edward: Now what's this about?
Will: You insist you've never been there!
Edward: Well, that might be the case!
Will: Ahh! You're lyin'!
Edward [yelling]: That's enough!
Will: You're lyin' right to my face!
Judge [Spoken]: Who is Jenny Hill?
Edward: Oh, come on Doc, How long have you and me been friends, huh?
Judge [spoken]: Take him away!
Edward [spoken]: Oh come on! No!
All: Now there's gonna be a hangin' tonight! There's gonna be a hangin' tonight! There's gotta be a sturdy scene At the end of the line 'Cause there's gonna be a hangin' Gonna be a hangin' There's gonna be a hangin' Gonna be a hangin' A hangin'! A hangin'! A hangin'! A hangin'!
