2019 Broadway Beetlejuice the Musical - What I Know Now Lyrics
"What I Know Now" is a song performed by Leslie Kritzer (Miss Argentina) and Ensemble from the musical Beetlejuice.
MISS ARGENTINA: I was hot I went to parties a lot
(spoken) Y'know?
(sung) I was driving Lamborghinis Sipping super-dry martinis In the tiniest bikinis on a yacht But I was depressed Also completely obsessed An unhappy beauty queen Who dreamed to be Miss Argentina I had such low self-esteem I was a mess
So I gave it all up for the netherworld I've been here forever, girl If I was more clever, girl I would've stuck it out Knowing what life's about
Pain and joy and suffering Failing but recovering I'll tell you another thing Everyone here is alone So if you are breathing Go home!
If I knew then What I know now I would have looked within and let love in somehow If I only knew The truth back then I wouldn't have had my little "accident"
Don't be blind You left your whole life behind See a shrink Call a priest Ask the recently deceased Death is final and you cannot press rewind
ENSEMBLE: Don't jump when the light is red Toasters should be used for bread Never smoke cigars in bed Nietzsche was right, y'know, to live is to suffer, bro Don't cheat on the one you wed Never whip a thoroughbred Angry pygmys shrunk his head Why did it take death to see Happiness was up to me?
ALL: If I knew then What I know now I would've laughed and danced And lanced every sacred cow I thought I knew But I was wrong 'Cause life is short But death is super long
ENSEMBLE: I exploded!
MISS ARGENTINA: ENSEMBLE: If I knew then If I knew What I know now
ALL: I would've crossed every line And drank all the wine Before my final bow
MISS ARGENTINA ENSEMBLE: If I knew If I knew
ALL: The things that now I know I would ride the highs and cherish the lows Going, it's a quick trick 'round the rodeo
MISS ARGENTINA: So before they lower the curtain, Be certain to enjoy the show That's what I know!
ENSEMBLE: Life is short but death is long Here, one minute then it's gone Thought I knew but I was wrong If I only knew what I know now!
