Little Shop of Horrors (The New Off-Broadway Cast Album)
Dentist!
When I was younger, just a bad little kid
My momma noticed funny things I did
Like shootin' puppies with a B B gun
I'd poison guppies, and when I was done
I'd find a pussy cat and bash in its head
That's when my momma said
What did she say?
She said "My boy, I think someday
You'll find a way to make your natural tendencies pay"
You'll be a dentist
(You'll be a dentist)
You have a talent for causing things pain
(Pain)
Son, be a dentist
(Son, be a dentist)
People will pay you to be inhumane
(Inhumane)
Your temperament's wrong for the priesthood
And teaching would suit you still less
Son, be a dentist you'll be a success
Here he is girls, the leader of the plaque
Watch him suck up that gas, oh my God
He's a dentist and he'll never ever be any good
Who wants their teeth done by the Marquis De Sade?
Oh, that hurts, wait, I'm not numb
Ehh, shut up, open wide, here I come
I am your dentist
(Goodness gracious)
And I enjoy the career that I picked
(You love it)
I am your dentist
(That's what you're best at)
And I get off on the pain I inflict
(You really love it)
When I start extracting those molars
You girls will start screaming like holly rollers
(Dentist)
And though it may 'cause my patients distress
(Distress)
Somewhere, in heaven above me
I know, I know that my momma's proud of me
'Cause I'm a dentist and a success
Say aah
(Ahh)
Say aah
(Ahh)
Say ahh
(Ahh)
Now spit
