Suddenly, Seymour (From "Little Shop of Horrors") [1982 Original Cast]
Lift up your head, wash off your mascara
Here, take my Kleenex, wipe that lipstick away
Show me your face clean as the mornin'
I know things were bad but now they're okay
Suddenly Seymour is standing beside you
You don't need no makeup, Don't have to pretend
Suddenly Seymour, is here to provide you
With sweet understanding, Seymour's your friend
Nobody ever treated me kindly
Daddy left early, mamma was poor
I'd meet a man and I'd follow him blindly
He'd snap his fingers me I'd say, "Sure"
Suddenly, Seymour is standing beside me
He don't give me orders, he don't condescend
Suddenly, Seymour is here to provide me
Sweet understanding, Seymour's my friend
Tell me this feeling lasts till forever
Tell me the bad times are clean washed away
Please understand that it's still strange and frightening
Both losers like I've been it's so hard to say
Suddenly, Seymour
(Suddenly, Seymour)
He purified me
(He purified you)
Suddenly, Seymour
(Suddenly, Seymour)
Showed me I can
(Yes, you can)
Learn how to be more
The girl that's inside me
(The girl that's inside you)
With sweet understanding
(With sweet understanding)
With sweet understanding
(With sweet understanding)
Seymour is my man
(Seymour is your man)
Here, take my Kleenex, wipe that lipstick away
Show me your face clean as the mornin'
I know things were bad but now they're okay
Suddenly Seymour is standing beside you
You don't need no makeup, Don't have to pretend
Suddenly Seymour, is here to provide you
With sweet understanding, Seymour's your friend
Nobody ever treated me kindly
Daddy left early, mamma was poor
I'd meet a man and I'd follow him blindly
He'd snap his fingers me I'd say, "Sure"
Suddenly, Seymour is standing beside me
He don't give me orders, he don't condescend
Suddenly, Seymour is here to provide me
Sweet understanding, Seymour's my friend
Tell me this feeling lasts till forever
Tell me the bad times are clean washed away
Please understand that it's still strange and frightening
Both losers like I've been it's so hard to say
Suddenly, Seymour
(Suddenly, Seymour)
He purified me
(He purified you)
Suddenly, Seymour
(Suddenly, Seymour)
Showed me I can
(Yes, you can)
Learn how to be more
The girl that's inside me
(The girl that's inside you)
With sweet understanding
(With sweet understanding)
With sweet understanding
(With sweet understanding)
Seymour is my man
(Seymour is your man)
