Clinton the Musical - The Day After That Lyrics


ENSEMBLE
Break-ing news!

REPORTER 1
Welcome to a live coverage of the Whitewater scandal!
We're asking the tough questions

REPORTER 2
Was the president involved in Whitewater?

REPORTER 3
Was there a cover above Whitewater?

REPORTER 4
And most critically-
What even is Whitewater?

WJ CLINTON
What? I just told you!

REPORTER 2
Does it have to do with branding?

WJ CLINTON
What?

REPORTER 5
It's a beach resort, I think?

HILLARY CLINTON
No, it's not...

REPORTER 3
Is it that abandoned water park
Or a flavored water drink?

HILLARY CLINTON
No, I told you, it's-

ENSEMBLE
Break-ing news!

REPORTER 3
Nobody has any idea what Whitewater is!
But it doesn't matter that we have no clue
'Cause we can keep pretending that we do!

ENSEMBLE
Come watch our rolling coverage here!
We'll find the truth-

REPORTER 6
Let's hope it's risqué!

BILLY CLINTON
Risqué!

ENSEMBLE
This is the story of the year
And we're staying with this story all day!
And tomorrow!
And the day after that!

Break-ing news!

REPORTER 7
The president's approval rating has fallen twenty points!

BILLY CLINTON
I can help you get it up!

REPORTER 2
We're a tiny bit confused...

BILLY CLINTON
Me too

REPORTER 5
Tell us: What have you done wrong?

BILLY CLINTON
You tell me!

REPORTER 3
We would if you would tell us!

BILLY CLINTON
What?

REPORTER 2
Or we'll keep this going on!

ENSEMBLE
Break-ing news!

REPORTER 1
In an update to our rolling coverage:
There's... nothing to update!

REPORTER 8
It may be a case where nothing will arise...
But we will bring that nothing to your eyes!

ENSEMBLE
Come watch us as we bring him down!
And then we will be heading her way!-

HILLARY CLINTON
No more questions!

ENSEMBLE
Come watch us as we go to town!
'Cause we're staying with this story all day!
And tomorrow!
And the day after that!
And the day after that!

REPORTER 4
Let's hear it from our political experts for an intense analysis
Mark, what exactly is Whitewater?

MARK
Whitewater is the drug dealer on your corner, (Ecstasy!)
Whitewater is the deadly still of crude, (?) (Student loans!)
Whitewater is your pregnant teenage daughter, (Abortion!)
Whitewater is your dream that won't come true!

REPORTER 4
And there you have it
Whitewater is destruction of civilization as we know it

REPORTER 6
Mister president, will you be appointing a special prosecutor?

BILLY CLINTON
To do what?

REPORTER 2
To investigate Whitewater?

BILLY CLINTON
What?

REPORTER 5
To exhibit some confessions?

BILLY CLINTON
To what?

REPORTER 3
Someone has to be appointed!

BILLY CLINTON
Why?

REPORTER 5
There are still unanswered questions!-

REPORTER 4
Like what the fuck is Whitewater!?

ENSEMBLE
Don't re-fuse!

WJ CLINTON
I'm not refusing!-

REPORTER 5
Oh- the president is refusing to appoint a special prosecutor!

ENSEMBLE
So, the press will have to investigate themselves...
So there won't be time to cover anything else...
Like healthcare!

WJ CLINTON
Son of a bitch!

ENSEMBLE
Come watch us as our ratings soar!
My show is next, so don't go away! (Stay tuned!)
Even if you say, 'Please, no more!'
We'll be staying with this story all day!
And tomorrow!
And the day after that!

WOMEN
And the day after-
And the day after-
And the day after-
And the day after-
And the day after-
And the day after-

ENSEMBLE
After that!
And the day after that!
And the day after that!

BILLY CLINTON
And the day after that
