Tears to Shed lyrics

[BLACK WIDOW, spoken]
Oh, those girls are ten a penny
You've got so much more
You've got, you've got a wonderful personality

[MAGGOT]
What does that wispy little brat have
That you don't have double?

[BLACK WIDOW]
She can't hold a candle to the beauty of your smile

[EMILY]
How about a pulse?

[MAGGOT]
Overrated by a mile

[BLACK WIDOW]
Overvalued

[MAGGOT]
Overblown

[MAGGOT & BLACK WIDOW]
If he only knew the you that we know
[EMILY]
(sigh)

[BLACK WIDOW]
And that silly little creature isn't wearing his ring

[MAGGOT]
And she doesn't play piano

[MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW]
Or dance

[MAGGOT]
Or sing

[MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW]
No, she doesn't compare

[EMILY]
But she still breathes air

[BLACK WIDOW]
Who cares?

[MAGGOT]
Unimportant
[BLACK WIDOW]
Overrated

[MAGGOT]
Overblown

[MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW]
If only he could see
How special you can be
If he only knew the you that we know

[EMILY]
If I touch a burning candle, I can feel no pain
If you cut me with a knife, it's still the same
And I know her heart is beating
And I know that I am dead
Yet the pain here that I feel
Try and tell me it's not real
But it seems that I still have a tear to shed

[MAGGOT]
The sure redeeming feature
From that little creature
Is that she's alive

[BLACK WIDOW]
Overrated
[MAGGOT]
Overblown

[BLACK WIDOW]
Everybody knows that's just a temporary state
Which is cured very quickly when we meet our fate

[MAGGOT]
Who cares?

[BLACK WIDOW]
Unimportant

[MAGGOT]
Overrated

[BLACK WIDOW]
Overblown

[MAGGOT AND BLACK WIDOW]
If only he could see
How special you can be
If he only knew the you that we know

[EMILY]
If I touch a burning candle, I can feel no pain
In the ice or in the sun, it's all the same
Yet I feel my heart is aching
Though it doesn't beat its breaking
And the pain here that I feel
Try and tell me it's not real
I know that I am dead
Yet it seems that I still have some tears to shed
